Homepage Configuration

Serve shopping experiences as your home page — on a schedule and depending on who is visiting.

Overview

Your shop has exactly one home page, set in the sales channel. With this plugin you decide by rules which shopping experience your visitors get instead — based on date, time of day, weekday, customer group and whether someone is logged in.

You create as many configurations as you like. Each configuration links a shopping experience to a set of rules. When a configuration matches the current visitor, its shopping experience is served as the home page. When none matches, the home page set in the sales channel stays in place — so there is no state in which your shop ends up without a home page.

Typical uses: a Christmas or Easter landing page that switches itself on at the cut-off date and disappears afterwards. A Black Week campaign that only runs on certain days. A dedicated home page for your B2B customer group. A welcome page for guests and a different one for logged in customers. No template changes, and no working late at the keyboard.

Key Features

  • Scheduling: configurations switch themselves on and off at a given date and time
  • Recurring rules: time of day and weekdays can be controlled independently of the date
  • Audiences: a separate home page per customer group, for guests or for logged in customers
  • Combinable rules: several rules per configuration, joined with AND or OR
  • Priority: when several configurations match, the highest value wins
  • Per sales channel: each configuration applies to one sales channel or to all of them
  • Cache safe: the plugin works correctly with the HTTP cache enabled and clears the cache itself when a time window opens or closes

Requirements

  • Shopware from version 6.6.6.0 up to and including 6.7.x
  • At least one shopping experience of the layout type home page
  • Your shop's scheduled task runner and message queue consumer must be running — otherwise timed switches take effect late while the cache is enabled
