8. Close Type: dropdown with 2 options: Manually and By Timeout.
   1. Manually, the visitor needs to close the notification by themselves.
   2. By Timeout, the notification goes away on its own after the assigned time. Recommended option.
9. Time to Close: option directly related to the Close Type: By Timeout. Enter a value (in miliseconds) after which each notification will close itself.

Of course, there are additional options:

• Save Changes: save all your changes.
• Reset to Default: though the button looks like disabled, it's very much active. This option will delete all your custom settings and reset the Products Purchase Notifier options to default. The option requires confirmation.
• ← BACK: Go back to the main Modules screen.

Show Real Orders: Products Purchase Notifier

When this option is enabled, the notifications popup will display random products from random customers and related to completed orders on your website.

To summarize, this option will display real data based on your further settings (whether or not to display the date, etc.)

When Show Real Orders option is disabled, the module will display random orders of products that did not really happen. When you're just starting out, this can give an impression that your shop is live and users are actually ordering things.

Generate Random Names For Fake Orders: Products Purchase Notifier

The Generate Random Names For Fake Orders is directly related to the Show Real Orders option. If the Show Real Options is disabled, then the module will generate random purchases based on the products in your store.

If Generate Random Names For Fake Orders option is enabled, then the module will read the names you added from the Random Names text area field.

If Generate Random Names For Fake Orders option is disabled, then the notification will simply display the word "Somebody" instead of a name: Somebody bought this product.

That's it!
