Useful for customers who need recurring reminders to reorder. Optionally filtering by a customer tag, it monitors the most recent order for each customer, and sends them reminders every x days since that order.
This task runs daily, at midnight in your store's timezone. This task will send emails to the address on file for the customer, falling back to the email on file for the order if the customer has no email address.
To test this task, enable test mode, and save. You'll find a new "Run task" button, which will report the emails that would be sent on the current date.
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?)
