# Product Notices FAQ

Everything you need to know about managing custom banners and product rules.

## General Questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What is Product Notices?" icon="circle-info" iconType="solid" color="#A855F7">
    Product Notices is a Shopify app that allows you to create and manage custom text banners on your product pages. It uses a rule-based system so you can target specific products or collections without manually editing descriptions or theme code.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How does the app display notices on my store?" icon="eye" color="#A855F7">
    The app uses a **Shopify Theme App Extension**. It writes your notice text to a specific product metafield (`noticeable.product_notice`), and the theme block reads that metafield to display the message instantly on your storefront.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Will this slow down my site?" icon="bolt" color="#A855F7">
    No. Because we use native Shopify Metafields and Theme App Extensions, the banners load as part of the initial page render. There are no external scripts or "flickering" effects that slow down your site performance.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Is there a limit to how many rules I can create?" icon="list-check" color="#A855F7">
    No. You can create as many rules as you need for different products, seasonal events, and specific collections.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Targeting & Rules

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Can I target specific products or collections?" icon="crosshairs" color="#A855F7">
    Yes. You can create rules for:

    * **Specific Products:** Select individual items from your catalog.
    * **Specific Collections:** Target every product within one or more collections.
    * **Global (All Products):** Display a notice across your entire store.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How does the Priority System work?" icon="layer-group" color="#A855F7">
    When multiple rules apply to the same product, the **Priority** field determines which one is shown. Higher numbers take precedence.

    *Example:* A "Storewide Sale" rule (Priority 1) will be hidden by a "Final Sale" rule (Priority 10) if a product qualifies for both.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I show more than one notice at a time?" icon="copy" color="#A855F7">
    To maintain a clean and high-converting user interface, the app is designed to show the single most relevant notice based on your priority settings.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How do scheduled notices work?" icon="calendar-days" color="#A855F7">
    Every rule has optional **Start** and **End** dates. You can set up a notice weeks in advance; the app will automatically publish it and remove it based on the timeframe you select.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Customization & Display

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Can I change the look of the notice?" icon="palette" color="#A855F7">
    Yes. Inside the Shopify Theme Editor, you can customize the colors, font size, padding, and borders of the notice block to perfectly match your brand’s aesthetic.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can customers close the notice?" icon="xmark" color="#A855F7">
    You can enable a "Dismissible" setting in the theme block options. If enabled, customers can click an 'X' to hide the notice for the remainder of their session.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Where should I place the notice block?" icon="arrow-pointer" color="#A855F7">
    Most merchants place the block near the **Add to Cart** button or just below the **Product Price** to ensure customers see critical information before purchasing.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Syncing & Technical

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How quickly do notices update?" icon="rotate" color="#A855F7">
    When you save or edit a rule, the update is pushed to your product metafields **instantly**. Scheduled rules are activated or deactivated by a background job that runs every **15 minutes**.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What happens if I delete a rule?" icon="trash-can" color="#A855F7">
    Deleting a rule immediately clears the notice from all associated products and updates the storefront.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Does this work with headless Shopify stores?" icon="code" color="#A855F7">
    Yes. Since the data is stored in the standard Shopify Metafield `noticeable.product_notice`, your custom frontend can simply query that field via the Storefront API to display the content.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Support

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="I created a rule but it isn't showing up. Why?" icon="circle-question" color="#A855F7">
    The most common reasons are:

    1. The **Noticeable Block** hasn't been added to your theme yet.
    2. The rule is currently "Scheduled" for a future date.
    3. Another rule with a **higher priority** is overriding it.
