  1. It would be great to be able to create folders in the experiments list to group items together. (Not the sort feature). Often, I have multiple experiments (separate mobile and desktop project that are the same content) - it would be useful to be able to organize these into groups - like in a file folder system. (See mockup)

  2. I am proposing that we upgrade to ES11 to stay aligned with the latest JavaScript standards and leverage modern language features such as optional chaining, nullish coalescing, and Promise.allSettled. These enhancements significantly simplify handling complex asynchronous logic, reduce verbose and repetitive code, and improve overall readability and maintainability of our experiment scripts.

    While we understand that upgrading is not strictly required to run experiments, adopting ES11 is vital for our growth and development as devs. It enables us to build more robust and reliable A/B tests, accelerate development and iteration cycles, and minimize technical debt. Keeping pace with evolving web…

  3. I am the Product Manager at Hearst Magazines.
    Our current Web Experimentation implementation is set up with the snippet in the <body> tag, which causes significant flicker for experiments involving changes above the fold.
    Your new Edge on CDN feature could be a game changer for us. However, the blocker is that we currently use Fastly CDN, which is not supported by your Edge product.

  4. Customers use the Chrome Plug-in often for debugging, QA and forcing themselves into variations. It does not always work, and is pretty limited.

  5. Frequently I need to switch my coding / set up from a staging to a production environment. Optimizely warns me and then REMOVES all my code.

    This is fine if you are a basic non-technical user.

    It would be better if this was an optional change.

    Possibly provide a check box and a message in the button (see screenshot) - which would allow me to change the targeting.

  6. Suggestion: a way to remove the conditional activation trigger from within the visual editor without going into the page activation (auto-generated) callback and adjusting/removing it there?

    Currently this option does not exist in the Visual Editor, but would be useful if you want to undo conditional activation (easily).

  8. Suggestion:

    Ability to add multiple conditions.

    At the moment we can only select 1 condition, but selecting multiple (2 or more) conditions would be a great add.

    Use Case - Ecommerce example:

    if a new user clicks over the jackets category and has an exit intent, we show them a pop up with a promotion

  9. Topic: Conditional Activation

    Use case: run a global experiment with a pop up, but not all pages have the same elements so we need to be able to scroll to % on the page.

    Solution: Scroll To option, add the possibility to scroll to % (not just element).

  10. Currentlh when using the Visual editor and an element is selected such as an H1, the css class or ID attributes are not accounted for in the editor.

    Sometime is is necessary to be more specific, such as

    H1 vs H1.classname

    The idea is to include an option to use specificity and have the editor use the ID or classname based on a setting.

    Such as...

    Use HTML element only (H2)
    Use HTML ID (#id-name)
    Use HTML element + CSS Class name (H2.classname)

  11. Since Optimizely keeps a 'log' of changes -- why can't we have a "Restore to this version" in the history log.

    It's nice to see what happened in the log, but the ability to restore to a previous version would be invaluable when editing and changes have been saved and going back a few versions is critical to avoid having to redo the entire variation setup.

    See attached UX suggestion.

  13. As an experimenter, I should see a warning/alert when changing an Audience in either Web or FX that is being used in an active experiment to prevent unwanted impacts on live experiments.

  14. There is no device option in the new Visual Editor and so if you're making mobile only changes, this is currently not possible. Sometimes devices have different UI or features and so being able to create change on a correct device is crucial for non-technical users.

  15. I am the Product owner for our Web Experimentation tool. Our current reporting is very robust but it will also be ideal to add visitor segmentation for new/returning visitors. I have a feeling we had this before but no longer able to segment by that. We are always trying to figure out if new/returning users convert different with our variations. Is this only available via audiences? It will be nice to have them on the filters section of the tool when you are looking at the results report.

  16. Hello!

    I often have visitors classified into different audiences accessing the same page. It would be nice to be able to experiment with different communications based on the visitor's audience. Today, to have this type of granularity, I need to set up an experiment for each type of audience.

  17. We get a lot of bots that try to submit forms. Can Optimizely come up with some feature that can be used to block Bots from getting counted into an experiment?

    (Not blocking site access -as our IT department can't even do that all that well)

  18. Dear Team,

    We would like to request the extension of the recently released properties functionality for custom events to include page-level implementation. This enhancement would significantly improve both targeting capabilities and metric definition for page-based analytics.

    Currently, when managing numerous product detail pages (PDPs) with varying attributes such as product categories, we face limitations in creating meaningful metrics. Whilst page attributes exist, they cannot be utilised within metric definitions.

    The ability to define page properties would enable us to create metrics such as "product category PDP visits" without requiring dedicated category pages or specific experimental targeting for each variant.

  19. I constantly get requests from product manager or other team members asking, "What is running on the site in Optimizely". Not everyone has access to look at the reporting dashboard/program overview.

    The idea is for a view that can be shared and configured by an Optimizely Admin - and then can be shared. No login is needed for this view.

    The view can contain a number of items (similar to the current program overview) and could be filtered by the admin to only show experiments that are relevant to the business goals or the view's audience.

  20. Feedback from client: I want to be able to search for an old test on the results dashabord just once, rather than have to search for it within each status category.
