Initial Campaign Setup

There are a couple of things you need to do before your countdown timer campaign is ready: 

Select The Pages – Where You Want the Campaign to Run

There are specific page options where you can run the campaign. The stock scarcity can currently run on: 

  • The Product Page 
  • The Cart Page 
  • The Shop Page and
  • The Entire Site

(2) Use the page status toggle to enable or disable a page
(3) Select the in-page position from the dropdown.

Please note that the in-page position for the ‘entire site’ is either at the top of the page or the bottom of the page. Also note that the appearance for the entire site will be different.

Core Campaign Settings

The timer settings are the core settings here. You will find 3 types of timers here:

Static Timer

The static timer is pretty straight-forward. You can start and end the timer at a specific date, at a specific time.

To set a static timer, all you have to do is:

  • Either choose to start immediately (choose “Start Now”) or specify a specific starting and ending time (choose “Schedule for Later”)
  • Set the start and end times if you plan to run it for a specific period
  • Select the timer ending behavior – you can either hide the timer, or show it as it is (both options are available in the dropdown).

If you select “Start Now”, then you only need to set the end date and time.

Evergreen Timer

The evergreen timer allows you to set timings for sales in an ‘evergreen’ way. There’s a button you can use to repeat the timings as well.

Evergreen Timer Setup

You can repeat the timer once it runs out. Simply toggle the “Repeat After Finished”

Daily Recurring Timer

The daily recurring timer requires you to set a start-time and an end-time. Based on your selection, the timer will run within the set hour.

The timer will run within the selected timeframe.

You can also set the timer for weekdays specifically. Again, you need to set the start and end timings for the weekdays.

Animated Timer

You can make the timer animated as well. It’s as simple as turning on the toggle and setting it up:
