Query Triggers

When you select Client-Side as the type of Campaign, a larger collection of Triggers is available to you. Among them is the Query Trigger. Collectively, the Query Name Condition and Query Value Condition fields allow you to provide query parameters to match. They match only parameters in the URL; they do not match anything on the page. In addition, they do not match POSTed parameters. Use the Query Name Condition field to enter the parameter you are looking for.

When this Trigger is satisfied, SiteSpect applies the changes specified in the What to Change area.

Note: Query Triggers are available only for Client-Side A/B Campaigns.

Query Triggers

When you select Query as the type of Trigger, several options for entering the Query are available:

  • Contains – The text that you are matching must contain what you enter here. The text can be anywhere within the Query.
  • Does not contain – The text that you are matching must not contain what you enter here.
  • Starts with – The text that you are matching must begin with what you enter here. It must be at the beginning of the Query.
  • Does not start with – The text that you are matching must not begin with what you enter here.
  • Ends with – The text that you are matching must end with what you enter here. It must be at the end of the Query.
  • Does not end with – The text that you are matching must not end with what you enter here.
  • Exactly – The text that you are matching must be exactly what you enter here.
  • Does not match exactly – The text that you are matching must not be exactly what you enter here.
  • JS Regex – Describe the text you want to match using JavaScript Regex.

What to Change

Selector

Use the Selector field to enter the name of a CSS Selector. When a page component matches this Selector, SiteSpect applies the settings specified in the Changes field.

Note: Linked Client-Side Factors require unique Selectors.

Changes

The Changes field defines exactly what you want to replace. There are several options:

  • Insert HTML – Replaces the HTML content of the selected components.
  • Set Attribute – Replaces the Attribute with the specified value if the Attribute exists. If the Attribute does not exist, this adds it. Enter the name of the Attribute on the left side of the field and the Value on the right side.
  • Set CSS – Replaces the CSS rule with the specified value if the rule exists. If the CSS rule does not exists, this adds it. Enter the rule on the left side of the field and the value on the right. Note that if there is an !important rule, this won't override it unless this rule is also !important.
  • Custom – Lets you provide JavaScript code to execute on each matching component. The first line and the last line of the field are not editable. Note that this function is run against each matching component. In addition, each time it's run, the current component it's working on can be accessed with the keyword this.
