Ending support for Internet Explorer 11
Microsoft is ending support for Internet Explorer 11. So are we. Here’s what it means for you and your customers.
Product Updates
Feature Upvote and log4shell
Feature Upvote is not vulnerable to the log4shell RCE issue. Here’s a full report of our investigation.
Add images to comments
You and your contributors can now add images to comments on suggestions.
The “email log” – see what emails your board has sent
Working out why a contributor has not received an email can be hard. We’ve made it easier with our new email log.
The “access list” – restrict who can use your board
The “access list” is a new way of controlling access to your feedback board. Once enabled, only people on your access list can access your board.
Connect your feedback board to Microsoft Teams
Get notifications in a Microsoft Teams channel when your feedback board receives new suggestions and comments.
Finetune your Slack integration
Our Slack integration is our most popular integration. So we improved it to give you control over what exactly gets sent to Slack.
Export your suggestions as an Excel file
You can now export your data as an Excel file. This removes some headaches some of our customers have reported with getting Excel to play nicely with our CSV export.
Change your board’s vote throttling level
Our throttling system detects when too many votes come too quickly for a suggestion, and starts silently ignoring some of them. You can now set how strict our throttling should be – or turn it off altogether.
Add private notes to suggestions
When viewing a suggestion as a moderator or admin, you can add a private note. This is a free-form field to add any notes you want about the suggestion. It is only be visible to moderators and admins.
Set the status given to newly approved suggestions
We’ve given our one-click moderation a small but important improvement. Now you can choose what status is assigned to a suggestion when it is approved for voting and commenting.
Change the order of statuses on your feedback board
Now you can change the ordering of statuses on your feedboard board to be more logical. The ordering you choose will be respected anywhere statuses are listed.
Create custom statuses for your feedback board
Your board comes with a set of built-in statuses. Your workflow might have additional statuses you’d like to add, such as “In progress” or “In testing”. Custom statuses allow you to add these to your feedback board.
Setting a default filter for your feedback board
You can set a default filter to control what suggestions are seen by first-time visitors.
Using Google Analytics with your feedback board
You can now add your own Google Analytics account to your feedback board. Find out useful info such as which pages get the most organic traffic.
Signing in to a private board using an HTTP GET parameter
Your users can now access your private board using a shared URL instead of a shared password.
You can now stop your feedback board from being indexed by Google
You told us that you wanted the option to disable your feedback board, and all suggestions on it, from being indexed by Google. You can now.
Make new suggestions and comments approved by default
You told us through our own feedback board that you wanted to be able to turn off moderation of comments and suggestions when you trusted contributors. We listened and got to work.
Move suggestions between your feedback boards
When you have more than one feedback board your customers occasionally add suggestions to the wrong board.
You can now filter suggestions by tags
You can now filter suggestions by tags, to make browsing similar ideas easier.
We now integrate with Zapier
With the power of our Zapier integration, you can connect Feature Upvote to 1,000+ other apps, including Asana, Aha!, productboard, Zendesk and Discord.
We’ve improved our search function
After taking onboard your feedback, we’ve made our search smarter and easier to use.
