Mechanic is a development and ecommerce automation platform for Shopify. :)
Use this task to automatically delete non-purchased products created by Neon Sign Customiser. Set the number of days old products should be before Mechanic deletes a product.
Runs Occurs when a user manually triggers the task. Configuration includes products must be x number of days old, test mode, live mode, and run daily.
Use this task to automatically delete non-purchased products created by Neon Sign Customiser. Set the number of days old products should be before Mechanic deletes a product.
Tick the "Test mode" checkbox to verify which products will be deleted: after saving, use the "Run task" button to run the product scan, and you'll receive a list of products that Mechanic would have deleted in live mode.
Once you're ready, uncheck the "Test mode" box and check the "Live mode" box, save the task, then use "Run task" to permanently delete all matching products.
Check the run daily option to have the task run at 12AM daily.
Mechanic is designed to benefit everybody: merchants, customers, developers, agencies, Shopifolks, everybody.
That’s why we make it easy to configure automation without code, why we make it easy to tweak the underlying code once tasks are installed, and why we publish it all here for everyone to learn from.
(By the way, have you seen our documentation? Have you joined the Slack community?)
