How does the Exclude By URL work in the ToastiBar - Sales Popup App?

For Shopify

For Wix

For Shopline

The Exclude URLs feature allows you to control where notification pop-ups and countdown timers appear on your store. If you want to hide notification pop-ups or countdown timers on specific pages or prevent them from displaying across certain URLs of your website, this setting gives you full flexibility.

When Should You Use Exclude URLs?

Use this feature if you want to:

• Hide notification pop-ups or countdown timers on specific landing pages
• Disable notification pop-ups or countdown timers on cart page
• Prevent notification pop-ups or countdown timers from showing on policy pages (Privacy Policy, Terms, etc.)
• Exclude custom campaign or promotional URLs
• Disable notification pop-ups or countdown timers on selected product or collection pages

Quick Exclusions

Quick Exclusions let you instantly disable notification pop-ups & countdown timers on common page types.

You can choose to:

1. Disable on Home page
2. Disable on Product pages
3. Disable on Cart page

Simply check the relevant option, and the app will automatically stop displaying notification pop-ups & countdown timers on those page types.

Disable Using Meta Tag

To disable notification pop-ups & countdown timers on a specific page, you can add the following meta tag to the page’s code:

<meta name="mps-sales-notification:active" content="false">

By using this meta tag, you can effectively stop the notification pop-ups and countdown timers from being displayed on that particular page, providing more control over where and when the notification pop-ups and countdown timers appear.

This method is useful if:

• You want precise control over individual pages
• You’re working with custom templates
• You need developer-level control over visibility

Excluding Specific URLs

To exclude notifications from specific URLs:

1. Go to ToastiBar -> Exclude URLs
2. Click Add New URL button.

3. Enter the full or partial URL you want to exclude and select the app.
4. Click on the Add to add the URL.

Once added, ToastiBar will not display notification pop-ups or countdown timers on the specified URLs as per the app selection.

Later on, if you decide to enable notification pop-ups or countdown timers for any previously excluded app, just click the delete icon on the right side to remove the exclusion.

Also, you can exclude the notification pop-ups or countdown timers for a page or collection(s) of pages by using the wild-card character *.

For example, if you want to exclude the notification pop-ups or countdown timers for all the products of a specific collection then you can exclude the notification pop-ups or countdown timers by example.com/collections/collection_name/ *

Valid URL Examples:

example.com/*

example.com/collections/*

example.com/products/*

example.com/blogs/*

example.com/pages/*

example.com/accounts/*

Invalid URL Examples:

example.com*

example.com/collections*

example.com/*collections

example.com/products

example.com/products/

example.com//products

For Shopify Users:

NOTE: Shopify allows two ways to reach the product page:

1) example.com/products/product_name

2) example.com/collections/collection_name/product/product_name

Here, the app will exclude the notification pop-ups or countdown timers for the URL which you have specified. For example, if you will exclude through the first URL, the app will not display the notification pop-ups or countdown timers on the product page when a customer will visit the product page by the first URL.

If the customer will visit the product page by the second URL, then the customer will be able to see the notification pop-ups or countdown timers on the product page.
