TimeFly

TimeFly uses your WordPress site timezone configured in Settings > General. All visibility calculations use this timezone, not your browser’s timezone. The editor displays the current site time so you can accurately configure schedules.

Example: If your site timezone is set to “New York” and you schedule content to show at 9:00 AM, it will appear at 9:00 AM Eastern time regardless of where your visitors are located.

Recurring schedules let you show content on specific days of the week during set hours. Configure which days content should appear (e.g., Monday-Friday), set start and end times for each day (e.g., 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM), and specify when the recurring pattern begins and optionally ends.

Perfect for business hours, weekly events, or regular announcements like displaying “We’re Open!” during business hours or showing weekend promotions every Saturday and Sunday.

Yes! You can use as many TimeFly blocks as needed on a single page. Each block has independent scheduling settings. This is perfect for showing different content at different times, multiple seasonal promotions, or business hours messages alongside after-hours messages.

TimeFly includes a Block Scanner accessible through Appearance > TimeFly > Block Scanner tab. Select which post types to scan (pages, posts, custom post types) and view a complete list of all posts containing TimeFly blocks with direct edit links. The scanner caches results for about an hour to minimize server load.

When content is hidden, it is completely absent from the page HTML—not just hidden with CSS. This means search engines won’t index hidden content, which is the correct behavior for time-sensitive information. When content becomes visible, search engines will see it on their next crawl.

TimeFly performs visibility calculations on the server when the page is generated. If you use caching plugins, pages may be cached with content in a specific visibility state. For truly dynamic visibility with caching, you may need to set cache expiration times that align with your visibility schedule or use cache clearing plugins that can clear cache at scheduled times.

Yes! You can add custom CSS classes to TimeFly blocks using the “Additional CSS class(es)” field in the block’s Advanced panel. The block also supports anchor IDs for linking. The wrapper itself is transparent by default, allowing your inner content styling to show through.

When TimeFly is deactivated or deleted, all content inside TimeFly blocks becomes visible regardless of schedule settings. If you have time-sensitive or private content, move it to draft or private posts before deactivating. Use the Block Scanner (Appearance > TimeFly) to find all TimeFly blocks across your site.
