I want to know that can I use the A/B testing feature for the Bricks builder? Currenlty, it is working with Gutenberg.

Hi Gaya

Do you intend to maintain this plugin in the future?

Thanks

John

Hi,

Great plugin I love the idea and how easy it makes A/B testing. I tried adding it to A/B test some images using reusable blocks, to make it easy to make changes over many blog posts at the same time, but for some reason I get this error at the top of the blog posts with the changes:

Warning: DOMDocument::loadHTML(): Tag figure invalid in Entity, line: 4 in /home/customer/www/mywebsite/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ab-testing-for-wp/src/php/helpers/block-renderer.php on line 37

Warning: DOMDocument::loadHTML(): Tag figure invalid in Entity, line: 10 in /home/customer/www/mywebsite/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ab-testing-for-wp/src/php/helpers/block-renderer.php on line 37

The A/B test seems to work, since it does show the different images, and it seems to keep track of users, but the error worries me a little. Any idea on why it could be happening and how to prevent it? When I get rid of the blocks with the A/B test, and refresh the page, the error dissapears.

Best regards,

It would be great if A/B Testing for WordPress could integrate with optimize.google.com as described on this page: https://elementor.com/blog/a-b-testing/
Also, it is worth making sure that the plugin is compatible with the latest version of WordPress.

Hello,

Will this plugin get along with cache plugins as WP Rocket?

Thanks!

Im old school, using the old editor, with gutenberg disabled.

Hi there,

Im curious towards using this pluing for a/b testing a new blog of mine: https://tinyhouselife.nl/

But I want to test the content for engagement instead of outbound links.

Any suggestions as to how to achieve this?

I would like to meassure the time spend on a page and the scroll depth.

Thanks for this awesome plugin!

Kind greeting,

Koen

Is there a way to make this plugin work with Google Optimize?

Hi All,

first of all thanks for the plugin.

Plugin version is 1.18.2. Gravity Forms is 2.5-beta-1.8 (I know, beta, but their new form builder is such a bliss and i hope this is not the problem …).

I am trying to test two versions of a form with Gravity Forms. They display fine within the test block. Block is added via shortcode directly into a template.

The test counts the participants but the conversions stay at “0”. I tried submitting the forms via AJAX or the “classic” way. Makes no difference. AJAX submission should work as well with Gravity Forms, right?

What makes me wonder is if i pick “Gravity Forms” as the Type for Testing Goal “On submit of form” says “No goal selected” with no other option available … am i missing something here? I cannot figure out how to set the goal and my perception of the docs was i don’t have to anyways …

Any help or hints much appreciated,
Best Nils

Hi All,
I have installed the A/B Test plugin to my website https://andersondodson.com and have created two newsletter forms and have converted both forms into the A/B Test on the page (https://andersondodson.com/test-page/) in the sidebar.
Whenever I test this page after logged-in then at the top I can see the dropdown for variant A and variant B.
If I click on A then I can see the newsletter without title (I have added the title only with A variant to see the difference in both forms) and if I click on B then I can see the other newsletter form with title.
But if I test this without logged-in then I can not see the dropdown for variant A and variant B.
This is the issue I am facing, So please let me know if I am missing something or something wrong with plugin.

Thank you

I have installed and activated the plugin. Then opened a post.

I wanted to convert the button block to an A/B test block and that didn’t work.

Then I created a new A/B Test Block above the button. Unfortunately I can neither add a block nor enter any text.

What have I done wrong?

Hi there!

More of a general question; but is this plugin still being developed?

Cheers ??

Hey! Thanks for the great plugin. I really like the idea to use gutenberg blocks to set up an A/B test.

The one thing that’s holding me back from using it is that I can’t do more custom tracking. It’s often when we’re A/B testing that we want to check a few things that can’t currently be done.

Got a feature request that would really help for a more custom set up.

Two solutions I think would work:

– A JS api. An event for when the page is running a test would work, with the test name and variant as custom data. A function to call as a goal completion for a test could also be good.

– Google Analytics integration. If your plugin would send a ga event, or some kind of user data that states the A/B test name and variant then any advanced tracking could be done in GA.

Thanks again,

Alfie

Hello,

I manage sites using git to track changes, including plugins & WP core. This plugin ships with a .gitignore file that ignores the vendor and dist folders. It would appear at least the vendor is needed, and without that it throws a fatal error.

Could you remove all the items needed for the plugin to run from the .gitignore file?

Thanks,
Joshua

Greetings,
There are no obvious errors or problems, except that the content for the A/B test always just shows the content from A and never B. I checked the slider and it’s set to 50/50. Is there something I can do to force-trigger the switch to test it? I’m wondering if it’s something I did. And thank you for making it easy to style the content. I was able to target the container and elements no problem from the stylesheet. Cheers!

Hey!

I’m getting this error message: “Updating failed. The response is not a valid JSON response.”

Testing it on WordPress Version 5.4 with the Genesis theme. I’ve just created a fresh install with the exact same setup, I don’t get the error message there. So it has something to do with the existing website. Any recommendations where I should start looking for the bug? I’ve already deactivated every plugin except yours, but this didn’t solve the problem.

Thanks,
Sebastian

Greetings,
I’m running WordPress 5.4 with the latest Enfold Theme using a Child Theme. After creating my first A/B test using “Add New A/B Test” I went to “All A/B Tests”. The following errors are displayed at the top of the dashboard screen:
——————————————-

I was able to install this plugin. However, the following error was output in the Apache log. How can I work around this problem?

Hello,

I’m new to A/B testing and I have installed it to see what kind of Amazon Affiliate link is better.

The two different ads have the same base link, but with different endings for some reference. Or they have the same end point, but one of the links is shortened.

How does and when does the Goal link count?

Adventurous greetings,
Coen

Hi, I built each page using advanced custom fields (plugin). I would like to add an A/B testing tool to test the messaging on the website.

Here is an example of a content block I made using advanced custom fields.
https://ibb.co/NrntGy9
My ultimate goal is to test 2 versions of this content block with a different message and see which one had a higher click-through rate.

Is this possible with your plugin?

Hey guys,

Doesn’t seem like forcing variants via url is working…

I’m trying to force to display one block but not the other…

https://www.flowpress.com/screenshots/screenshot%202020-03-24%20at%202.35.54%20PM.png

You can see url is supposed to be ?test=A to display “Test Author A” block only but the 2nd block will not hide…

Basically I’m trying to have more then just 2 variants… and 2nd block should not show because conditions for A & B are not met.

And a follow up… is there anyway to add additional testing variants or is this hardcoded at 2?

When the plugin is activated the following database errors are shown:

WordPress database error: [Table ‘wordpress.wp_wc_admin_notes’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT note_id FROM wp_wc_admin_notes WHERE name = ‘wc-admin-wc-helper-connection’ ORDER BY note_id ASC

I’m using WP 5.3.2 and WooCommerce 4.0.0.

The plugin seems to be working but I did not create any tests to avoid db issues.

Hi,

The plugin zip file is included within the plugin folder.

When you download and extract the zip-file, the plugin zip file (along with the other plugins files and directories) is again listed (ab-testing-for-wp.zip).

You see it here:
https://plugins.trac.www.ads-software.com/browser/ab-testing-for-wp/trunk

Hi, how do you test the title? There’s no option to convert the title box into an A/B block. And an A/B content block cannot be used as the title block.
