Overview
The Scheduler Addon allows you to show or hide your content blocks based on the date and time. While this is a simple feature addition, it allows you to schedule content, which is great for promotions and time sensitive material.
Usage
When enabled, the scheduling settings can be found on the Visibility tab of both Local and Global blocks. See the screenshot below.
Enable Scheduler
As the title implies, quickly enable or disable scheduling on the current block.
Begin Date/Time
Choose the date/time that the block should begin showing on. Note that the time is tied to the timezone that your website is set in. You can adjust the timezone on the admin General Settings page. If you leave this option blank, the block will begin showing immediately.
End Date/Time
Choose the date/time that the block should stop showing on. Again the timezone is controlled by your website’s General Settings page. If you leave this option blank, the block will never stop showing.
Enabling the Add-on
To start using this add-on, log into your account and then click on Downloads. Then download the latest version of the add-on you are looking to use. Upload the compressed file to your WordPress website, just as you would any other plugin. Once installed, you will want to activate the add-on license. Back in your account, on the Purchases tab, you will see a link to View Licenses. See the screenshot below. Click on this link.
On the following page, hover over the key icon of the add-on you are looking to activate. See the screenshot below. This will display the license key, which you will need to copy.
Finally, back on your website, navigate to the Licenses & Addons settings page, and activate the license as you did for Blox itself. For more details on activating licenses, please check out the Licensing page.
