We have been looking around for days for a solution to a problem we are having with GWO, and thought maybe you could assist. We have a dynamic site that is based on php and smarty templates. When we attempt to input a smarty call to action such as {include file="customer/select_brand.tpl"}, the optimizer just shows the literal translation of that request. Do you know of any hack around this issue, maybe to call a seperate js file? Any help would be appreciated. Hello Ophir,

I couldn't find this answer anywhere on the WSO Help.

So I did some testing on my own and found out that you can simply copy the test page javascript and sections to any test page you want and it’ll behave the same as if it was on the original test page.

The split was done in custom code but the tracking was done with Google analytics (each version was assigned a different campaign). What I really like is that GWO already does the statistical analysis for you so I don't even have to pull in the results into excel (like I did when it was done manually). Just curious - what platform are you using for the custom code? We used to do this half manually.
