Project Settings in Zoho PageSense

Project Settings

The Project Settings section in Zoho PageSense allows you to configure advanced controls that affect how your website is tracked and how experiments behave across your project. These settings help you customize tracking behavior, organize pages, run scripts globally, and maintain accurate analytics data.
NotesNote: The Settings icon is located in the top-right corner of your PageSense interface. From there, navigate to Project Settings to configure the options described below.

The Project Settings section includes the following options:

  • Project JS
  • Page Groups
  • Cross Domain Tracking
  • Exclude Bots

Project JS

The Project JS section allows you to add custom JavaScript code that runs across all pages of your website where the PageSense snippet is installed.

Any script added in this section will automatically execute as soon as the PageSense script loads on the page. This allows you to apply custom functionality globally across your website without modifying the source code of each individual page.

Script

This feature is particularly useful for implementing site-wide changes, custom behaviors, or additional tracking logic that should apply across all pages in the project.

For example, you may use Project JS to:

  • Display promotional banners or announcements across all pages

  • Trigger custom UI changes required for experiments

  • Add custom tracking scripts or event listeners

  • Implement small front-end adjustments for testing or personalization

Once the required JavaScript code is added, click Save to apply the script. PageSense will then execute this code automatically on all pages where the PageSense tracking snippet is present.

Using Project JS helps centralize global scripts and simplifies the process of applying custom functionality across your website.




Page Groups

The Page Groups feature allows you to organize and group multiple web pages together so they can be tracked or targeted collectively.

Instead of configuring individual URLs every time you create an experiment or analyze reports, page groups help you define a logical set of pages that belong to a specific section of your website.

For example, you may create groups such as:
  • Homepage Pages
  • Product Pages
  • Pricing Pages
  • Campaign Landing Pages

Once a page group is created, it can be used when setting up experiments, personalization campaigns, or analytics tracking within PageSense.

Creating a Page Group

When creating a page group, you can define the following:

Name
Provide a descriptive name for the group so it can be easily identified. For example, Homepage Group or Pricing Pages.


Pages to Track

Specify the pages that should be included in the page group. PageSense provides eight URL match types to help you precisely define which pages should be tracked.

  1. Domain – Tracks all pages under a specific domain.
  2. Simple URL Match – Tracks pages that match the given URL in a simple format.
  3. Exact Match – Tracks only when the URL exactly matches the specified address.
  4. URL Pattern Matches With – Tracks pages that follow a defined URL pattern.
  5. URL Regex Matches With – Tracks pages that match a specified regular expression patte
  6. URL Contains – Tracks pages whose URL contains a specific word or path.
  7. URL Starts With – Tracks pages where the URL begins with the specified value.
  8. URL Ends With – Tracks pages where the URL ends with a specific string.

Pages not to track

You can also define pages that should be excluded from the group, even if they match the main criteria. This helps prevent certain pages from being included unintentionally.


For example, you may want to track all pages under a domain but exclude pages such as trial signup, testing environments, or internal pages.

Page Groups simplify targeting and help ensure experiments and analytics reports focus on the correct set of pages.



Cross Domain Tracking

The Cross Domain Tracking feature allows you to track visitor activity across multiple domains that belong to the same organization.

Many websites operate across different domains, such as a marketing website, product platform, or checkout domain. Without cross-domain tracking, PageSense may treat visitors moving between these domains as separate users, which can interrupt the visitor journey in analytics reports.

Allow Cross-Domain Tracking

Allow Cross-Domain Tracking

When this option is enabled, PageSense can identify a visitor as the same user across different domains, allowing you to track their behavior continuously even when they navigate between multiple websites.

This helps you:
  • Understand the complete visitor journey across domains
  • Maintain consistent visitor sessions across websites
  • Improve the accuracy of funnel analysis and conversion tracking
  • Measure user interactions across marketing, product, and checkout pages
Cross-domain tracking is especially useful for businesses that operate across multiple related domains and want a unified view of user behavior.



 Exclude Bots

The Exclude Bots option helps prevent automated traffic from affecting your analytics reports and experiment results.

Search engines, monitoring tools, and other automated systems often crawl websites using bots. These visits are not from real users, but if they are tracked as normal traffic, they can artificially inflate visitor numbers and distort experiment data.

Exclude Bots

When this option is enabled, PageSense automatically detects and filters out known bot traffic and automated visitors from your tracking data.


By excluding bots, you can ensure that:

  • Analytics reports reflect real user behavior

  • Experiment results remain accurate and reliable

  • Artificial traffic spikes are avoided

  • Conversion metrics are not affected by automated visits

Enabling bot exclusion is recommended for maintaining clean, accurate, and trustworthy data across all PageSense experiments and reports.
