Go to **Advanced** > **Display Condition**. 2. Turn on the **Display Condition** toggle. You will see an option called **Keep HTML**. Enabling this will hide the content in the frontend if the condition is false but it will remain in the HTML (DOM). Use this when you need hidden content to stay accessible to search engines or other scripts on the page. 3. After selecting the appropriate option from the **Display When** dropdown, go to the **Rules** section. Here you have to set the actual display condition. You can have one or multiple conditions/rules. 4. To set a date and time based display rule, click on the **Rule** tab. Here you will find different options under the **Date and Time** label. > **Note:** All date and time conditions use your server’s timezone, not the visitor’s local timezone. Verify that your server timezone matches your intended timezone in **WordPress Settings → General** before setting time-based rules. ## How to Set Elementor Display Condition Based on Current Date? This option allows you to set display conditions on your content for a specific date range. Use this when you want to show special content related to a sale or offer for a fixed number of days, such as a holiday promotion banner or a limited-time announcement on a WooCommerce store. To set display condition for a date range -  1. Select **Current Date** from the first dropdown under the **Rule** tab. 2. Then in the second dropdown, you have two options -  **Is** - This will make the statement true. **Not** - This will make the statement false. 3. In the **In Interval** field, you will have to set the date range. For example, if you want to show a discount offer message related to the Christmas sale, then after selecting **Current Date** from the first dropdown, choose **Is** from the second dropdown.  Then in the **In Interval** field, choose the date range for example, 25th Dec to 1st Jan. That will make the message visible from 25th Dec to 1st Jan. If you want to go beyond date-based rules and show different content based on who is viewing the page, [How to Add Dynamic Content in Elementor?](https://theplusaddons.com/docs/add-dynamic-content-in-elementor/) covers conditions based on user roles, login status, and other dynamic parameters. ## How to Set Elementor Display Condition Based on Time of Day? This option allows you to show or hide content after a specific time of the day. Use this when you display a time-sensitive offer on your website and want to hide it after a certain hour automatically, such as a same-day delivery cutoff or a happy hour promotion with a defined end time. To set display conditions based on time of day -  1. Select **Time of Day** from the first dropdown under the **Rule** tab. 2. Then in the second dropdown, you have two options -  **Is** - This will make the statement true. **Not** - This will make the statement false. 3. In the **Before** field, you will have to set the exact time until the display condition will work. For example, if you want to hide a discount message after 11:59 pm, then after selecting **Time of Day** from the first dropdown, choose **Is** from the second dropdown. Then in the **Before** field, set the time to 23:59. This will show the message until that time and will be hidden automatically. If the option is set to **Not** in the second dropdown then this message will show after 23:59. ## How to Set Elementor Display Condition Based on Day of Week? With this option, you can show content on specific days of the week. Use this when you want to display certain content only on certain days of the week, like showing a recurring weekly menu, a Monday newsletter callout, or a Friday-only discount. This can save you from a lot of manual work. To set display conditions for certain days of the week -  1. Select **Day of Week** from the first dropdown under the **Rule** tab. 2. Then in the second dropdown, you have two options -  **Is** - This will make the statement true. **Not** - This will make the statement false. 3. In the **Before** field, select the days you want the display condition to work. For example, we want to display a special menu every Friday on a restaurant website. To do this after selecting **Day of Week** from the first dropdown, choose **Is** from the second dropdown. Then in the **Before** field, select **Friday** from the dropdown. This will show the content automatically every Friday. If the option is set to **Not** in the second dropdown then this message will not show on Friday. > *Note: You can add multiple days together.* ## How to Set Display Condition Based on Time Period Range? With this option, you can show or hide content for a specific time range of the day. Use this when you need to display a flash sale offer, a lunch-hour promotion, or any time-limited banner that should appear only during a defined window each day. To set display conditions for specific time range -  1. Select **Time Range** from the first dropdown under the **Rule** tab. 2. Then in the second dropdown, you have two options -  **Is** - This will make the statement true. **Not** - This will make the statement false. 3. In the **Start Time** and **End Time** fields, set the start and end time, respectively. For example, we want to show a flash sale offer for 2 hours only. To do this, after selecting **Time Range** from the first dropdown, choose **Is** from the second dropdown. Then, in the **Start Time** field, select the start time and set the time 2 hours later in the **End Time** field. This will show the content for 2 hours only.
