I set up a promotion code to be used in our monthly events. We would like promo code to stay the same each month. The month before, I would like to set up a limit to the number of uses.

1. Once the month is over, can I add number of uses for the next month? Once the number is set for the month, can I change this number?

2. How does “per scope item” apply/ how is it used in this case? Can I apply x amount to October events, then x amount to November event?

Thank you for any further details/ideas you may have.

Using EE4.8.14.p, WordPress 4.3.1.

Hi, the limit applies against the promotion itself but I do have an idea on how to handle this.

Lets say your discount code was this:

1234567890ABC

When October is over, then you could create a new discount with the same discount code with a limit and then save changes.

Then go back to the prior discount/promotion and adjust the discount/promotion code so it looks like this and save changes:

1234567890ABC-October

You could then repeat the process above for additional months.

Hello,

Thank you for your idea. I’m wondering if that is the only way to handle this. Are you able to answer these questions, as well?:

1. Once the month is over, can I add number of uses for the next month? Once the number is set for the month, can I change this number?

2. How does “per scope item” apply/ how is it used in this case? Can I apply x amount to October events, then x amount to November event?

Hello again,

The suggestion that I shared is currently how I would handle it as a limit applies against the promotion itself.

For example, if you create a promotion and set the limit to 30, then it would not be available after 30 uses.

To answer your other question, you cannot enter limits for each month ahead of time for a specific promotion.
