You can choose what shop sections to include in the sale.

Your Discounted Items

The price of items that participate in a sale event is reduced based on the discount you have set. If you have decided to add a call-to-action banner, it will be added at the position you chose, and will also help distinguish your items from other search results.

You can choose where the banner will be positioned on the image: above image, on-top, middle, 3/4 down or bottom.
