texte = First off... in reading the docs I came across this today:Note: Triggers will not execute until the first hit to the web site has been processed. This usually means that until the first web browser hit from the outside hits a URL ending in .tpl or one of the other WebCatalog-controlled suffixes, no triggers will execute.Does this mean that if a trigger is set to go off at 2:25 pm and nobody hits the site from 2:19 pm until 2:30 pm that the trigger won't go off until 2:30? Second, I need to build in a coupon code system. Does the products.db accept negative prices? What would be the best way to go about doing this?-- Matthew C.
