Countdowns
Show a real deadline — a fixed end date or a per-visitor timer — and decide what happens when it runs out.
A countdown shows shoppers how long an offer lasts. In PageStax a countdown always counts to a real deadline: it doesn't restart every time the page loads.
Add a countdown#
Add a section that contains a countdown (for example from the Conversion filter in Add sections), then select the countdown element.
Choose the deadline#
In Content → Data (a real deadline), set Counts down to:
- A date — one fixed end, set in Ends at, the same for every shopper. Use it for a sale that really ends on a date.
- Per visitor — a window of a set length (Window (minutes)) that starts the first time a shopper sees it. It is remembered in that shopper's browser, so reloading the page doesn't reset it.
When it runs out#
In Content, write the Message (for example "Sale ends in") and choose When it runs out:
- Hide it; or
- Say it ended, with your own Ended message.
