The Specials page in Dutchie E-Commerce is getting a new category filtering model and a redesigned layout to help consumers find deals more easily.
The redesign will introduce category-based filtering (for example, Flower Specials or Edible Specials), predefined filter chips such as BOGO, Under $25, Delivery Specials, and Ending Soon, and special offer cards that display countdown timers and urgency badges. It will also add a "Shop Specials By Category" landing section with category cards, category landing pages (for example, a Flower Special Offers page), a sort dropdown, empty state messaging, mobile responsive updates, and updates to the home page carousel cards.
This redesign is meant to make active specials more visible and easier to browse by category, which can help surface deals to consumers without additional setup on your part. Specials you configure through the discount builder will automatically populate into the new categories, filters, and cards without any extra manual work.
Before you begin
- Category cards, category filtering, countdown timers, and urgency badges will all be system-generated from your active specials. You won't need to configure these separately.
- If you use Discount Sync from Dutchie POS, your point of sale discounts will continue to sync to Dutchie E-Commerce and will populate into the redesigned Specials page automatically.
What you'll be able to configure
Filter chip visibility
You'll be able to show or hide individual filter chips (All Items, Everyday Deals, Ending Soon, BOGO, and Bundles) using per-chip toggles in the Specials settings modal, under a Menu Filter Chips tab. All five toggles will default to on. This means all filter chips will display unless you turn them off.
Existing dispensary settings
The following existing settings will continue to affect how specials display on the redesigned page:
- Hide Discounts From Consumer: if enabled, this setting will continue to suppress specials on your consumer-facing menu entirely.
- Discounts Sync: this setting will continue to control whether specials created in Dutchie POS sync to your Dutchie E-Commerce menu.
- The specials themselves: you'll continue to configure your deals, BOGOs, timing, images, display names, and ranking through the discount builder in the Backoffice.
What won't be configurable
Most of the redesign will be system-driven and won't require or allow manual configuration, including:
- Category cards and category filtering, which the system will derive dynamically from your active specials
- Countdown timers and Ending Soon urgency badges, which the system will calculate automatically from special end dates
- The card design and layout
- The sort dropdown options
- Breadcrumb navigation
- The Under $25 and Under $50 price threshold chips, which will use hardcoded thresholds
- The overall page layout and rollout schedule, which Dutchie will manage internally
Troubleshooting
Q: I don't see the new Specials page layout on my menu yet. Why not? A: The redesign will roll out gradually under an internally managed feature flag, so accounts won't all receive it at the same time. If you don't see the new layout yet, it simply hasn't reached your account. Reach out to your Dutchie contact if you'd like more information about your rollout timing.
Q: Can I add or remove one of the price threshold chips, like Under $25? A: No. These thresholds will be hardcoded and won't be configurable by retailers.
Q: A filter chip I want to hide, like BOGO, is still showing on my menu. What should I check? A: Go to the Specials settings modal and check the Menu Filter Chips tab to confirm the toggle for that chip is turned off.
