In campagnes it would be great to have a object that you can put in the flow that would automatically switch to a different path depending if the timestamp / date is set.
For example: Seasonal mails for leasure companies that have a summer mail that needs to be sent from 1st of july, then the autumn version that needs to start from september, winter from end of november etc. This saves time and lets you create automatically yearround campaigns that are set to go with their content in it.
Or have that option set in a block. (Show untill timestamp)

thanks for the information and a good idea indeed. , I created a different sollution on the backend. (actually you gave me the initial idea couple years ago in an e-mail that had a temporary message in it regarding construction work on the A4) i added to fields now "Visible from" and "Visible untill".
i can add a date in there that will make sure that the article is only visible between those date stamps.
So that works aswell. However i think for those who are not that technical and familliar with programming and / or smarty code. the feature should be a fairly simple one since it will be an addaptation to the Timer object with a connection to strotime.
For now this will do but maybe in the future deployteq makes one.

Hey Boyke, This is possible, since the 'private environment' is accepting smarty you can create an environment your own.
Let's say you have the four seasons, create a private environment and make this SMARTY below your value.
{{assign var="now" value=$smarty.now|date_format:"%m%d"}}
{{if $now >= "0321" and $now <= "0620"}}
1 {{elseif $now >= "0621" and $now <= "0920"}}
2 {{elseif $now >= "0921" and $now <= "1220"}}
3 {{else}}
4 {{/if}}
Then with a switch object you can set this variable with the outputs 1,2,3 and 4 to different mails.
Also if you use this more often, you can make your own campaignobject to save this time every single time. Good luck :)
