How X-Cart Event Designer works:

1. Create new Event. Set the required options like Start/End Time, Period(Periodicity), Event Type etc
2. Paste Event Identifier code(that will be assigned to created event) into any place on your webpages (product descriptions, content pages and regular php pages)
   Identifier will look like this: <!---Holiday--->
3. Check the results!

Event Designer looks for the created Event Identifiers and replaces them with action. Events will be shown as scheduled in event options.

Typical usage scenarios:

• Run specials on weekends (you can announce about sales, time-limited discount coupons etc.)
• Run specials on holidays (let your visitors celebrate their holidays with purchases from your store)
• Run sales on store special days ("It's Gardeners' Day today. Save 10% on best Holland tulips" as a way to respond to customers' evolving needs)
• Display special characters on Christmas, St.Valentines Day or any other popular theme, providing your customers with a wonderful shopping experience.
• Integrate third-party services that run occasionally (during limited time or some special days only)
• Show greetings to your visitors that depend on time (Good morning, Good Afternoon,)
• Decorate your store for limited time (flowers blooming in spring, leaves falling in winter...)
• Add "special touch" - catch the attention of anyone who comes into your store
• Run "Today Only" specials
• Run Monthly, Weekly, Daily special sales
• Use Macros Functionality (replace some text in multiple places of your store at once)
  • Add Product-specific announcements, news, specials on product details page
  • Include external resources (files, URL's) right on product details page
  • Call user PHP function each time page is accessed (start/stop based on time)
