TruAl Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Im would like to set up a daily specials page for a restaurant where it displays the current daily special and automatically updates everyday to show the current days special. I can set up all the specials for the week beforehand but I dont know how to make it rotate daily. Link to comment

If you prepare them in advance, you'll have an Event configured for each day. You can then use a Summary Block, connected to the Events collection and configured to show a single item. The Summary Block will then show the current (not expired) event, which should be today's specials, or if you're closed, it will show the specials for the next day that you open. Did this help?
