Section on product page appear certain hours of the day

Topic summary

A merchant wants to display time-sensitive delivery information on product pages that changes based on a 1pm cutoff. Orders placed before 1pm qualify for same-day dispatch, while later orders have different delivery timeframes.

Proposed Solutions:

  • Create two separate delivery timer sections that display conditionally based on time of day
  • Use custom code to dynamically update a single delivery timer section
  • Explore third-party Shopify apps with time-based functionality

Developer Responses:
Multiple developers confirmed this is achievable through custom coding, though it requires significant development work. One developer shared a screenshot of a similar countdown timer feature they previously implemented.

App Recommendation:
A developer suggested the “Dash Drop Delivery” app for managing same-day and local delivery services, though its time-based display capabilities remain unclear.

Status: The discussion remains open with no final implementation chosen. One commenter asked whether the suggested app supports automatic product page activation at different times of day, which hasn’t been answered.

Does anybody know if it is possible for a section to appear certain hours of the day?

I’m looking to add a delivery timer like this to our product pages. We dispatch orders same day until 1pm so the dispatch and delivery time frame will be different each day depending if the customer is shopping before 1pm or after 1pm. I figured a way to make this possible would be to have two delivery timer sections that are coded to only appear certain times of the day. (if that is even possible)

If not possible does anyone have any other suggestions. I want the delivery timer to be as accurate as possible for our customers.

Thank you

@EnchantedDrinks Yes, I can surely implement this functionality. It’s a bit difficult to code and will take a lot of time.

Hi @EnchantedDrinks Yes you are correct this can be done with the help of custom coding, there are 2 option one is as you have mentioned, to have 2 delivery time frame, or can be done by 1 delivery time frame and rest will be managed by the code.

You can also search for 3rd party app in the shopify app store, maybe some app has this type of functionality.

If you will unable to implement the same then I’m happy to do this for you, let me know. I can implement the code changes so that this will work well for you.

Hopefully it will help you. If yes then Please don’t forget hit Like and Mark it as solution!

Hi, does your Dash Drop Delivery app allow product pages to be activated at different times of day. E.g. I need my standard range during business hours and then i have an after hours delivery service with different products and pricing. These day and night ranges need to automatically turn off and on at different times of day.
