The Kameleoon Graphic Editor makes it easy to create and manage variations for your experiments. This guide will walk you through the basic functions available in the Variations panel, including creating new variations, duplicating existing ones, and utilizing the URL redirection feature.
Variations panel overview
The Variations panel, located on the left side of the editor, is where you manage all the variations of your experiment. Here, you can add, edit, duplicate, and delete variations.
- Control variation: This is your original page before any changes are made. This page is used as a reference for your experiment, you cannot change or delete it.
- Variation 1, Variation 2, etc.: These are the different variations you create to test against the control. Each variation can be modified independently. By default, a variation named “Variation 1” is created. You can add or delete as many variations as you want but you must always keep at least one variation on your experiment.
Creating a new variation
To create a new variation:
- Click the “+ Add variation” button in the Variations panel.
- A new variation will appear in the list (e.g., Variation 1, Variation 2).
- You can start modifying this variation by adding or editing elements.
Managing variations
Duplicating a variation
- Hover over the variation you want to duplicate.
- Click on the duplicate icon that appears next to the variation name.
Renaming a variation
- Click on the three dots next to the variation name.
- Select Rename variation from the dropdown menu.
- Enter the new name and press Enter.
Deleting a variation
- Click on the three dots next to the variation name.
- Select Delete variation from the dropdown menu.
- Confirm the deletion in the popup window.
You must always keep at least one variation on your experiment.
URL redirection
The URL redirection feature allows you to redirect users to a different URL as part of your experiment. This is useful if you want to test completely different pages against each other.
To set up URL redirection:
- Click on the three dots next to the variation name.
- Select Redirection URL from the dropdown menu.
- A panel opens on the right-hand side of the editor.
Global redirection:
- Select the Global redirection option if you want all users who are assigned to this variation to be redirected to a specific URL.
- Enter the target URL in the provided field.
Include query parameters:
- If you want to include query parameters from the original URL in the redirected URL, check the box labeled Include query parameters in the redirect.
- This option ensures that any query parameters (the text after the ? in the original URL) are passed to the new URL, maintaining the integrity of dynamic content or tracking information.
Redirection by parameter:
- Select Redirection by parameter if you want to redirect users based on specific query parameters in the URL.
- Enter the parameter name in the provided field. The redirection will occur only if this parameter is present in the original URL.
4. After configuring the redirection settings, click Save to apply the changes.
