Question 3

Publication Segmentation 🎯

Accepted Answer

Publication segmentation can be used to send targeted messages to specific groups of users. For example, you can show different publications to paying users and non-paying or logged in users and logged out. You can also show different content to users based on behaviors such as past purchases from your store or which specific page they are visiting on your domain.

| Segmentation is a seemingly simple but extremely powerful mechanism to filter publications based on your own conditions.

Getting Started

Let's say you have configured a widget on your landing page and another one in your dashboard that only authenticated users see. Now, let's assume you would like to display general announcements in both widgets but some publications only to authenticated users who are on your Business plan.

How to enable this use case? A manner to proceed is to use segmentation for publications that must target connected users that run the Business plan. This works in 2 steps:

You configure a widget to specify what segmented publications to load (in addition to non-segmented publications).
You publish a publication with segment values.

Configuring your Widget

First, you need to configure the widget where you want to enable segmentation. Following our illustration example, it would be the widget that appears in your dashboard. This is done with our JavaScript SDK as follows: `noticeable.render('widget', wid

Question 5

Serving Newspages under your own domain 🌐

Accepted Answer

By default, Newspages are served from the domain noticeable.news using the slug of your choice. For branding reasons but also due to corporate requirements you may need to serve Newspage content under your own domain or subdomain. Noticeable supports this use case.

How to configure a Newspage custom domain?

You can customize the URL to a more professional and easy to remember one such as updates.acme.com or acme.news. The setup is as simple as follows:

Open the project of your choice in the Noticeable dashboard.
Select Newspage in the left menu.
In the Basic & Custom Domain settings group, identify the field named Custom domain and enter the domain or subdomain you want to link.
Once you have entered your custom domain, setup instructions appear. Complete the DNS configuration as described.
Click the Verify Domain button on the bottom right side:

The first time you will open your custom domain URL in your brower, Noticeable will generate an HTTPS certificate for you and configure automatic renewal. This configuration may take a few minutes to complete. Until this is done you may see some transient error messages.

| If you are using Cloudflare to manage your DNS entries, make sure the orange clouded icon is disabled, otherwise entries will not redirect to the right IP addresses and your

Question 6

Widget Cross-Device Synchronization 💾

Accepted Answer

Cross-device synchronization allows synchronizing user widget states (e.g. read/seen publications) so they can pick up where they were left off when they move between devices.

Let's take an example: you have integrated a Noticeable Widget on your pages for authenticated users and you recently released a new publication. A user open your page by using a mobile device. Since a new publication was published, the Noticeable Widget notifies the user. The user reads the publication and leaves your page. Now, a few hours or days later the same user comes back on your pages but connecting from a laptop. What happens?

If you don't use cross-device synchronization, the user will get notified again by the Noticeable Widget about your new publication. However, if cross-device synchronization is configured, the widget states are retrieved from Noticeable servers and the user does not get notified again for something he was already aware of, thus offering a continuous browsing experience.

How to enable Widget Cross-Device Synchronization?

Enabling the feature requires 2 actions:

Open the Noticeable dashboard, select a project, click on Widgets in the left menu and select Enabled for the Cross-Device Synchronization switch that appears:

Uniquely identify your users by using the [Noticeable JavaScript SDK](/en-us/artic
