Hi Everyone,
quick question, I wanted to find out if there was a way to change the home page image/background image of a site, depending on the IP or MAC address of a user that is visiting the site? i.e each user will see a different version of the site?
Alternatively if thats not possible or too broad, what would I need to do to change the image on a daily basis automatically?
Thanks for the help
it would be pretty tricky to get the IP of a visitor. You would need to rely on some external API’s or jquery libraries. An alternative to this could be achieved by using the free geolocation API developed by Mozilla. Geolocation - Web APIs | MDN (mozilla.org)
You can easily run a function in wix that executes daily and assigns a new image to the home page using the jobs scheduler Velo: Scheduling Recurring Jobs | Help Center | Wix.com
Alternatively to all these you can just choose to load a random image on site load. To do this just add a simple function that executes on page load and changes the background image. Wix automatically gives you the $w.onReady function in the site code. You can just update your wix element from there Element - Velo API Reference - Wix.com
If you search the forum for IP you will see examples of how other users have solved this issue. See this post as one example
