1. On a page hit, Its a decision that says it will take an action when a page hits. What if the user does not hit the page? Will the flow ever go to a negative action. What I’m trying to do is prevent an email to be sent to a user if he visits a particular URL within 46 days before the email is scheduled to send out. [http://screenpresso.com/=GgLZf](http://screenpresso.com/=GgLZf) 2. Which is a better way of doing checks for certain decision and triggers? Use a wait or the new “within”. In the examples A and B below, my end target is to send an email to users who dont have the app and have not visited a particular URL A) [http://screenpresso.com/=jNR5b](http://screenpresso.com/=jNR5b) - Wait 16 days before checking if user installed the app and did not visit a particular URL then send the email ![B)]( "B)") [http://screenpresso.com/=S4Shf](http://screenpresso.com/=S4Shf) - Trigger the check if user installed the app and did not visit a particular URL then use the “Within” 16 days then send the email 3. Is the “Within” feature cascaded across multiple decision and triggers like can be seen in [http://screenpresso.com/=S4Shf](http://screenpresso.com/=S4Shf). In this example, does Mautic check for those 2 conditions “Within” 16 days? Thanks! ---

1. If i modify time and conditions midway of a campaign, do emails rules get updated for users who have triggered the rules but email has not been sent yet because of the time delay, for example - User A has been scheduled to receive email X in 16 days, but there is 4 more days before he is actually sent that email - The rule is changed to send that email X in 20 days, will that user A then have the email adjusted to send in 8 days - The rule is changed to send that email X in 5 days, will that user A then be sent the email immediately on next campaign update. ---
