Most of our tests now let you exclude specific web addresses. For example, you could now exclude all pages inside example.com/demo
from your spelling test, without affecting other tests.
How to exclude pages from a given test
- Visit the test you want to exclude pages from
- Click Settings > Test settings
- In the Excluded page URLs box, enter the fully qualified URLs that you want to exclude, one on each line, e.g.
- Note that these URLs must be full URLs, i.e. you can’t just write
example.com
or/blog
. Any web addresses inside these URLs are also excluded, so in the above example the pageĀhttp://example.com/blog/article
would also be excluded byhttp://example.com/blog
. - Re-run the report for your settings to take effect.
If you want to exclude pages from all tests, you should instead go to Settings > Site settings and add your web addresses to the Denied URLs box instead.
