How can I target multiple pages in a URL Split Test?

Mida supports the use of wildcards (*) when setting up URL Split Tests. This allows you to run experiments across multiple pages that share the same URL structure.

⚠️ Important: The wildcard must match the part of the URL exactly. If the variation URL does not follow the same structure, the redirect will not work.

When to Use Wildcards

Wildcards are useful if you want to target entire sections of your site, such as:

• All blog posts (/blog/*)

• All product pages (/products/*)

• All articles (/articles/*)

How to Set It Up

1. In your Mida dashboard, go to Experiments > URL Split Test.

2. Enter your Base URL with a wildcard:

   https://example.com/blog/*
   

   This will include all pages under /blog/.

3. Add your Variation URLs with matching wildcard patterns. For example:

   Variation 1: https://example.com/blog/*-v2
   Variation 2: https://example.com/article/*
   

Example

With the following setup:

Base URL: https://example.com/blog/*
Variation 1: https://example.com/blog/*-v2
Variation 2: https://example.com/article/*

• A visitor to https://example.com/blog/post-1 →
  will be redirected to https://example.com/blog/post-1-v2.

• A visitor to https://example.com/blog/post-2 →
  will be redirected to https://example.com/article/post-2.

✅ Both work because the * matches the same segment of the URL.

Notes & Tips

• The wildcard must match consistently between the Base URL and Variation URLs.

• Use * only in the parts of the URL you want to make flexible.

• Make sure all variation URLs exist and load correctly.

• Wildcards are especially helpful for dynamic URL structures (e.g., /blog/[slug]).
