TYPO3 Advent Calendar
Description
The TYPO3 Advent Calendar extension by coding.ms lets you create and manage a custom online Advent calendar within your own TYPO3 installation. Host it on your server and use your website for daily offers, product showcases and Christmas campaigns. New doors give visitors a reason to return every day.
Customise and prepare your calendar
Choose a design template, adapt the background image to your brand and fill the doors with text and images. The Basic version includes sequential or random door arrangements, optional snowfall and a date simulation feature. This lets you check your content before publishing. Click statistics show how often visitors open your calendar and individual doors.
Prize draws and interactive content with Pro
The Pro extension adds prize draws, flipbooks, spot-the-difference games and personality tests. TYPO3 content elements let you include additional content such as videos. Participants can use existing frontend user accounts or enter with their email address in public mode without creating an account. Reminders and automatic winner selection help you run your campaign.
Buy once, keep using it
You can use the extension indefinitely, with twelve months of updates included in the package. The Pro extension requires the Basic package.

FAQ
Du kannst alle unsere Erweiterungen zeitlich unbegrenzt nutzen. Bei Pro-Versionen ist lediglich der Zugriff auf die neusten Updates je Buchung begrenzt. Aber einmal bei Dir installiert, laufen diese nicht aus.
Das heißt wenn dein Buchungszeitraum endet, kannst Du die aktuell installierte Version weiterhin nutzen, aber hast keinen Zugriff mehr auf die Pakete in unserem Login oder via Deploy-Token.
When you upgrade, you simply install another extension and change a switch in the Advent Calendar record. This means that nothing changes in the submitted data.
Yes, you'll only have to pay once.
Yes, any content elements can be placed with the Pro version. These can also be HTML elements that contain a YouTube embed, for example.
The calendar is responsive - on large displays, for example, 6-4 doors are displayed in a row. On smaller displays this goes down to two doors next to each other. More responsive behavior can easily be added using CSS media queries.
Yes, it is possible. In that case, we would host your online advent calendar instance in a separate TYPO3 installation and you can then easily integrate this into your website via iframe.
The advent calendar contains a counter that counts how many times the Advent calendar and each door is clicked on. If you need more detailed information, Google Analytics tracking can also be used.
Please note that the advent calendar does not count any hits in simulation mode!
