Widget Visibility
To automate your campaign’s flow, you can set specific start and stop times for individual widgets. This ensures that visitors see the right content at the right time.
When using widget visibility, remember to:
- Use container widgets whenever possible and control their visibility instead of setting visibility for each widget individually. This reduces redundancy and simplifies management.
- Double-check your start and stop times to make sure the year and AM/PM settings are correct.

Testing Your Campaign
The final step before publishing is to test your campaign thoroughly. Make sure every feature functions as expected and all user paths work properly. To test your campaign before publishing:
- Click on the Preview button at the top of the Campaign Builder.
- Click on the Live Entries button to switch to "Test Entries". These entries will not be visible in the Entries Manager and do not count towards entry limits.
Use this checklist to verify that everything is ready for launch:
