A: If-So is compatible with any page builder. To create dynamic content, you can create a trigger or a CSV file with the desired content and apply it to your site using a shortcode.
To use Beaver Builder to create the content, you can create the dynamic content on a separate page and then use our Post ID shortcode to apply the content to the If-So trigger.
The post ID shortcode displays the content of any page or post you choose: https://www.if-so.com/display-post-and-pages-using-a-shortcode/
For Gutenberg and Elementor users, there is an additional option to set dynamic content directly at the block or element level for certain use cases.
Q: Hi if-so has really amazing possibilities,
But I guess would be a big customer-gain to create a native Divi-Solution like for Elementor.
To copy-paste source-code is not userfriendly and hard to design and maintain when something has to change or fix for tablet or mobile. (by the way this is also code -> because of your marketing-slag «no code» ;o) Bye the way, Divi Area Pro has a nice and userfriendly GUI, They use special tabs for trigger and bahaviour. Could be a god fit/start for an easy adaption.
### Question: Do you have a feature-request form so this wish could looked how much of your current customers and maybe prospects would love this?
Olny to use usualy with copy-paste source-code and shortcode does NOT mean they are all happy with. Especially to design more advanced design-stuff the Divi-Solution to see the viewport with Influence and effect is one of the biggest advantages from real WYSIWYG-Page-Builder. With copy-paste sourcecode or [shortcode] is only a makeshift Gap-filler for Divi-Design-Lovers.
Would be great to get some featurerequest-form that could be voted on. Kind regards Martin
Divi is the next page builder integration we are going to develop. I believe we will have it ready between 4-6 months from now.
We are aware of the fact that almost all WP users use page builders and we are constantly working to make If-So as simple as possible to use for all users. The conditional Elementor and Gutenberg blocks options were added recently and after we’ll finish the Divi integration we’ll move to the next one.
If the dynamic content you create is complex, a method that works with all page builders is to create the dynamic content on a new page using your page builder and apply the content into If-So using our post ID shortcode (https://www.if-so.com/display-post-and-pages-using-a-shortcode/)
Thanks for the comment about Divi Area Pro! It’s a great reference and very helpful.
A voting system is a great idea. I’ll make sure we add one ASAP, unless we will run into unexpected difficulties we will have one during next week.
The Sub-Geolocation license is a new addition that enables Geolocation licenses and AppSumo license holders to generate a license for activation on clients' websites.
This provides the following benefits:
1. You can set session limits for individual customers. 2. Your original license key remains secure.
Thanks for your quick response. I'm still a bit unclear, (excuse my thick head) I guess with the term Sub-Geolocation. The term implies physical location right? So does that mean that the sub account holder website has to be in a set physical location? How is that determined, through IP address? What if the IP address changes? Please correct me if I'm barking up the wrong tree.
The term "sub-geolocation" license is just the name we use in our system to describe the license's purpose. In terms of functionality, the geolocation service works similarly regardless of whether it's a standard geolocation license or a sub-license.
A sub-license is essentially a license that you can allocate sessions to (you have control over the number) and activate on a client's website instead of using your main license.
Q: Hi, is Divi integration done?
In an answer, in July'22, you told about 6 months ETA. Thanks!
Unfortunately, we were unable to complete the task due to technical limitations and roadblocks specific to Divi's architecture. We invested a significant amount of time in the attempt and we definitely have plans to give it another try in the future as we have already completed 90% of the work. Naturally, I cannot guarantee success at this time.
Nevertheless,
You can still use If-So with Divi in the conventional way, just like users of any other page builders do: 1. Create a trigger with conditions and content. 2. Paste the trigger's shortcode on your page.
For more information on creating a trigger: https://www.if-so.com/help/documentation/how-to-create-dynamic-content-trigger/
Hi Josef, thank you for your answer. When you create content in Trigger, can you use Divi for create this content? I understand that I can create triggers, and use them in a page with shortcode. But if cannot use Divi modules inside these triggers, it will be difficult to use them in my sites. For example, I want user to view a banner if they are logged, and another if they are not logged. I create these banners with Divi. Can I integrate them in a trigger?
Q: Is it possible to show blocks of content in different areas and also different images based on a form.
An example would be
a form for entrepreneurs question: why do you want to start a business Answers - student - want to buy a house - want to buy a car - retired
Are you male/female
Age 20-30 -30-40 -50-60 -60+
so if a female 60+ wants to buy a house...the images are of a 60 year old female, the images are houses. and different areas in the sales letter there is content about buying houses.
My second question is can something similar be done from google ads. They do a search for a red toyota. Based on teh keyword the content would change, keywords dynamically inserted and the ability to change images
For the first use case please check out our Audience Self-selction Form extension: https://www.if-so.com/dynamic-select-form/ It allows you to let the users choose an option/options and then show content based on their selection.
For the second use case, you have two options: 1. The Google Ads DKI shortcode: dynamically insert the search term that was used to trigger the ad: https://www.if-so.com/dynamic-keyword-insertion-for-google-ads/
2. The Google Ads condition - customize any content on your site based on the campaign, ad group, ad, or keyword the user has arrived from: https://www.if-so.com/google-ads
Q: I have a dropshipping shopify store, Can I use this for email Automation, I can shift to Wordpress too if it does so.
. Upon Payment confirmation, I want to send emails to my manufacturer/supplier in china whenever I receive an order, then after 4 days I wanna send another status update email and simultaneasly sending emails to Courier partner in china and keeping Customer updated with 2 emails in 15 days, about product delivery.
How much is the additional geo location credit? And is there a special price for the appsumo community?
Can this credit be accumulated for rollback in the next month if it is not used up? Or is the additional credit a one-time use model but there is no monthly time limit?
You can find the relevant information about our geolocation plans here: https://www.if-so.com/plans/geolocation-plans/
Sessions reset at the end of each month, based on the date when the license was created, rather than following the calendar month. I'm afraid we do not offer any additional discounts exclusively for AppSumo (beyond the attractive deal that is already available here at the moment).

Q: I did not see any integraton with Custom post types plugins.
I am using two popular recent AppSumo plugins - ACPT and CubeWP - and sadly this does not work.
Any suggestion is welcome. If So looks good but without being able to use with custom posts and fields, it is limited.
Kindly advise / help if I am missing something or if there is a workaround to above problem.

Q: The Block Visibility plugin is now free, but is this plugin more powerful than that?
Josef_If-So
May 15, 2024A: Certainly!
1. With If-So, content is not hidden but dynamically loaded based on specific conditions, ensuring only the relevant version is displayed.
2. If-So provides a more extensive range of conditions.
3. With If-So, you can create a sequence of If-Then conditions (by creating triggers).
4. If-So offers a multitude of additional features, including:
- Adding users to audiences
- Creating conditional pop-ups
- Built-in stats
