What is the schedule content condition

The schedule content condition lets you customize parts of your website content according to the time of the day and day of the week.

How can your site benefit from scheduling content? Examples:

• Show a click to call button on your business opening hours (on mobiles only, combining with the device condition)
• Display a contact form when your business is closed
• Show your opening hours when the business is closed
• Enrich your visitors experience with a customized content according to the time of the day

Possible Use Cases

Which content can be scheduled?

2. Click on “Select a condition” and select “Time & Date“.
3. Select “Schedule“.
4. Select the hours and days of the week in which you want to display the customized content
