Mechanic is a development and ecommerce automation platform for Shopify. :)
Use this task to identify orders that are for customers who have previously ordered from your store. Optionally, ignore more frequent purchasers, by ignoring customers who've made an order recently. Useful for making sure to include a welcome-back gift in order shipments. :)
Runs Occurs whenever an order is created. Configuration includes ignore customers who previously ordered after this date, ignore customers who previously ordered less than x days ago, and order note to add.
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?)
