A/B testing front page
3 replies · Started by Kristian on January 14, 2019
Hello!
I'd like to test which works better for lessening bounces, front page with automatic post loading active or disabled. I have HumCommerce to do it. But how do I copy the main page without the automatic post loading enabled? Thanks!
Hi there,
I'm not quite sure what you mean. Can you explain a bit more?
The current front page is a blog page which is automatically created by WordPress and it cannot be copied like a normal static page.
Sorry for being unclear, let me try again:
I want to create two versions of my front page, one with infinite scroll activated and one with it disabled. The first one can be my root domain, other for example /test. After that, I send half of the visitors to the main page and half to the other page using HumCommerce.
I can manage the latter part but I don't know the easiest way to copy the front page. How to start building this? And how to disable infinite scroll?
Thanks!
Unfortunately, you can't simply copy the front page.
Sounds like you need to create a fresh install, then duplicate your current site over so the second site is exactly the same, then you can go into the customizer of the second site and turn off infinite scroll.
You can Google "duplicate wordpress site" to see some more info. It won't be theme specific.
Hope this helps!
