<p><strong>Luzid Content Scheduler</strong> controls <em>when</em> a specific frontend block is visible — and can also <em>output</em> the next scheduled date(s) via shortcode.</p>
<p>This gives you two complementary ways to use a scheduler:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p><strong>Show / hide a block</strong> (banner, alert, section, popup wrapper, …)<br />
Add the generated CSS class <code>luzid-cs-<slug></code> to the element. The plugin adds body classes and a tiny frontend helper so the block is only displayed while the schedule is active.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Display dates in the frontend</strong><br />
Use the shortcode to print the next event (or a list of upcoming events) anywhere in your content.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<h4>Typical Use Cases</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Maintenance banners</strong>: Show a “We’re updating our systems” notice only during scheduled maintenance windows.</li>
<li><strong>Seasonal content</strong>: Display holiday greetings, special offers, or seasonal menus during specific date ranges.</li>
<li><strong>Event announcements</strong>: Print “Next event: Saturday, March 15th at 7 PM” dynamically on any page.</li>
<li><strong>Recurring schedules</strong>: Show “Happy Hour specials” every Friday from 5 PM to 8 PM.</li>
<li><strong>Multi-stage visibility</strong>: Use Event Classes to show a popup 4 days before an event, the full content 2 weeks before, and a menu item 11 days before — all independently controlled.</li>
<li><strong>Event calendars</strong>: Generate a table of all upcoming events across multiple schedulers.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Core Concepts</h4>
<ul>
<li>A scheduler becomes <strong>active</strong> when <strong>at least one</strong> rule matches (single dates/ranges <em>or</em> recurring rules).</li>
<li><strong>Exceptions override everything</strong>: if “now” is inside an exception range, the block is hidden even if other rules match.</li>
<li><strong>Event Classes</strong> (new in 1.4) allow multiple independent visibility windows with different offsets — each generating its own CSS class.</li>
<li>The shortcode reads the same event logic and outputs formatted dates with full control over separators and formatting.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Features</h3>
<h4>Scheduling</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Single dates & date ranges</strong>: Define specific days or periods when content should be visible.</li>
<li><strong>Recurring rules</strong>: Weekly (every Monday), Monthly (every 15th), Weekday in month (2nd Thursday), Yearly (February 14th).</li>
<li><strong>Exceptions</strong>: Override all rules — content stays hidden during exception periods.</li>
<li><strong>Event Classes</strong>: Create multiple CSS classes per scheduler, each with independent visibility offsets.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Shortcode Output</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Flexible date/time formatting</strong>: Choose from short, medium, long, or full date formats.</li>
<li><strong>Separators</strong>: Control exactly what appears between date, time, and text parts.</li>
<li><strong>Lists</strong>: Output multiple upcoming events with customizable separators.</li>
<li><strong>Event Table</strong>: Generate a sortable table of all upcoming events from multiple schedulers.</li>
<li><strong>Time offset</strong>: Shift the displayed time (e.g., “doors open 30 minutes before”).</li>
</ul>
<h4>Administration</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Card-based UI</strong>: Clean, modern interface for managing rules.</li>
<li><strong>Live preview</strong>: See upcoming events and visibility windows instantly.</li>
<li><strong>Bilingual</strong>: Full German and English support with one-click language switching.</li>
</ul>

Pootle Pagebuilder – WordPress Page builder

I like how this builder works. It's very easy to use and you can do advanced pages without dealing with so many options.

The support is good too, they reply in a timely manner.

Easy to use and great support

I am so happy I stumbled across this pagebuilder. There are many pagebuilders for WP these days, but I found it difficult to find an editor with just the right amount of features and functionality, without adding so many customization options that you cannot find the setting you need.

This page builder hits the sweet-spot, and I recommend to try out this page builder to anyone who is looking for an updated editor experience.

Powerful and simple to use

Great plugin. Saving me money :)

Thanks for the top notch support :)

Great Plugin - Saved me load of time :)

I wanted something a bit lighter than the big name page builders, as I didn't need all the extra bits they bundle in.

Really pleased with Pootle, it just seems more intuitive than others that I have tried.

Good service too, and no problems with the purchase. Thank you!

Better than other page builders

Great and friendly support. Great plugin.

Great plugin

Pootle Pagebuilder is a front-end, drag and drop page builder that makes it easy to create beautiful WordPress pages and posts.
