About
Time Out codes are generally used in scenarios when you want to automate a trigger based on after a specific amount of time has passed. In this case, we are using the Time Out code to redirect a person to another Wix page or an external URL
Here are some common scenarios of when to trigger the Time Out code:
When the page loads
When a button is clicked
When a dataset is saved
After a query or filter has been executed
Good to Know #1
The Time
The code is written in milliseconds, therefore the number:
5000 is equivalent to 5 seconds
1000 is equivalent to 1 second
60000 is equivalent to 1 minute
3600000 is equivalent to 1 hour

The Code to redirect to another Wix page
On Page Load:
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';$w.onReady(function() {
const millisecondsToDelay = 5000; setTimeout(() => {
wixLocation.to(`/join`);
}, millisecondsToDelay);
});
On Button Click:
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';$w.onReady(function () {
$w("#myElement").onClick((event) => {
const millisecondsToDelay = 5000; setTimeout(() => {
wixLocation.to(`/join`);
}, millisecondsToDelay);
});
});
After Dataset Saved:
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';$w.onReady(function () {
$w("#myElement").onAfterSave(() => {
const millisecondsToDelay = 5000; setTimeout(() => {
wixLocation.to(`/join`);
}, millisecondsToDelay);
});
});
After Query is executed:
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';import wixData from 'wix-data';$w.onReady(function () {
//
});// ... some other code that triggered the querywixData.query("myCollection") .find()
.then( () => {
const millisecondsToDelay = 5000; setTimeout(() => {
wixLocation.to(`/join`);
}, millisecondsToDelay);
} )
.catch( (err) => {
let errorMsg = err;
} );
After Filter is executed:
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';import wixData from 'wix-data';$w.onReady(function () {
//
});// ... some other code that triggered the filter$w("#myDataset").setFilter( wixData.filter()
.startsWith("lastName", "D")).then( () => {
console.log("Dataset is now filtered");
const millisecondsToDelay = 5000; setTimeout(() => {
wixLocation.to(`/join`);
}, millisecondsToDelay);
} ).catch( (err) => {
console.log(err);
} );

The Code to redirect to an external URL
On Page Load:
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';$w.onReady(function() {
const millisecondsToDelay = 5000;
setTimeout(() => {
wixLocation.to(`https://www.wix.com/marketplace/hire/web-design`); }, millisecondsToDelay);
});
On Button Click:
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';$w.onReady(function () {
$w("#myElement").onClick((event) => {
const millisecondsToDelay = 5000; setTimeout(() => {
wixLocation.to(`https://www.wix.com/marketplace/hire/web-design`); }, millisecondsToDelay);
});
});
After Dataset Saved:
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';$w.onReady(function () {
$w("#myElement").onAfterSave(() => {
const millisecondsToDelay = 5000; setTimeout(() => {
wixLocation.to(`https://www.wix.com/marketplace/hire/web-design`); }, millisecondsToDelay);
});
});
After Query is executed:
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';import wixData from 'wix-data';$w.onReady(function () {
//
});// ... some other code that triggered the querywixData.query("myCollection") .find()
.then( () => {
const millisecondsToDelay = 5000; setTimeout(() => {
wixLocation.to(`https://www.wix.com/marketplace/hire/web-design`); }, millisecondsToDelay);
} )
.catch( (err) => {
let errorMsg = err;
} );
After Filter is executed:
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';import wixData from 'wix-data';$w.onReady(function () {
//

.startsWith("lastName", "D")).then( () => {
console.log("Dataset is now filtered");
const millisecondsToDelay = 5000; setTimeout(() => {
wixLocation.to(`https://www.wix.com/marketplace/hire/web-design`); }, millisecondsToDelay);
} ).catch( (err) => {
console.log(err);
} );
