Offers category on Salla and Zid: group discounted products

With Discount or Change Price, turn on Add to «Offers category» during the offer. The products join the Offers category in your store and leave it when the offer ends. In your store, this category is always named "قسم العروض" (Arabic for "Offers section"), even when your PopAutomate dashboard is in English.

Result​

  • PopAutomate looks in your store for a category named exactly "قسم العروض". If there is none, PopAutomate creates it.
  • After a product's price changes, PopAutomate adds the product to the Offers category. The product stays in its other categories. A product whose price did not change is not added.
  • When the offer ends, PopAutomate takes the products out of the Offers category, and the discount ends or the old price comes back. In a repeating schedule, this happens at the end of every run day.

Rules​

  • After the offer ends, the Offers category stays in your store, empty. Hide it or delete it in your Salla or Zid dashboard if you do not need it.
  • If the Offers category is not in your store menu, add it from your Salla or Zid dashboard so your customers can reach it.
  • On Salla, if you change a product's categories yourself during the offer, the product may stay in the Offers category after the offer ends. Remove it from that category in your Salla dashboard.
  • If a product already had an earlier sale price, your discount replaces it. When the offer ends, the earlier sale price does not come back, so set it again yourself in your Salla or Zid dashboard.
  • If you duplicate this schedule, turn the switch on again before you activate the copy. The copy does not keep it. To see what a copy keeps and what it does not, read Duplicate a schedule: same settings, new dates.
