Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureRollouts schedules themes, checkout, discounts and catalogs. Metascheduler schedules the rest: variant prices, product status and sales channels, tags, menus, pages, blog posts, policies, metaobjects and metafields. Make a change at a set time, for a window, on repeat, or with one of your rollouts, so it starts when the rollout starts and is undone when it ends.
Set your sale up ahead of time and let it run. Theme Scheduler publishes the theme you pick at the exact time you choose, in your store's timezone. On the Plus plan it also changes your products for the sale: a percentage or amount off with the original price crossed out, sale tags, status, images, the metafields your theme uses for badges, and the search listing. Menus can switch too.
