Hi growthbook team. I’ve just created a small feature request which would be very helpfull for the userbase: Problem Statement Currently, when creating an experiment using the Visual Editor, the URL targeting set for visual editing automatically becomes a mandatory runtime targeting condition. This creates an unnecessary limitation where visual experiments can only run on the exact URLs (or URL patterns) specified during visual editing, even when users want to apply the same visual changes across multiple page types using attribute-based targeting. Current Behavior 1. User creates a visual experiment on URL:
<https://www.sanitairwinkel.nl/douche/douchekoppen/>
2. This URL is automatically added as a targeting condition for the experiment 3. The experiment will only run on pages matching this URL pattern 4. Even if users add additional attribute targeting (e.g.,
pageType: "category"
), the URL restriction still applies 5. Users are forced to use complex regex patterns or multiple wildcards to target similar pages Expected Behavior 1. The Visual Editor URL should be used only for: ◦ Loading the page in the visual editor interface ◦ Applying visual changes during experiment setup 2. Runtime targeting should be completely controlled by: ◦ The targeting conditions defined in the “Targeting” section ◦ Custom attributes and rules set by the user ◦ No automatic URL restrictions unless explicitly added by the user Would love to upvotes on the isssue ❤️ https://github.com/growthbook/growthbook/issues/4380
