How do I delay a function call for 5 seconds? [duplicate]

by

You can use plain javascript, this will call your_func once, after 5 seconds:

setTimeout(function() { your_func(); }, 5000);

If your function has no parameters and no explicit receiver you can call directly setTimeout(func, 5000)

There is also a plugin I’ve used once. It has oneTime and everyTime methods.
