Archived ideas

We would like to have the possibility for more than one person as author of an article/conversation. Some of the topics shared by our product experts and engineers are complex where more than one author are involved. I understand one author can always mention and tag their co-author(s) in the article, but it is not the same as having the authors equally listed as co-authors. 

We have a jobs board on our private community, which the team would now like to make public. But, for privacy reasons, we wouldn’t want members or non-members to be able to upload CVs as attachments in their comments. If this idea was implemented, we could limit who (already available) and where (not available) comments with attachments could be uploaded.

Our product list is long. When I use the product drop-down in different areas, the entire list doesn’t display. Guidance anyone?

I've seen questions about this a couple places, so I want to submit this as an idea.  I have several employees who who create articles. For now I must give them the moderator role. Since this role is part of the team, I would overexceeded my number of team members.  Having the ability to assign an author role to anyone who just needs to create articles would be a huge improvement. For businesses with active employees, a limit of five team members (additional members cost additional money) is not sufficient. 

We’ve had an SEO audit done on our community. There are a number of improvements we’ll present here as ideas. This one is about structured data.We suggest integrating Breadcrumb structured data object for all pages. These are utilised by Google and other crawlers to populate the path data on the SERP. Currently we're lacking those, which means that Google'll will try to populate the path data based on the URL's path, which due the ID's present.

It would be great to be able to add a personalized token in email Subjects. For example, be able to add the token : “Company name” Is it already planned ? Thanks !

 There are some typos:That should also read Until or Til, a Till is a drawer full of cash. Also, there’s a lot of jank when comparing report builder reports to data designer reports. Try out the heatmap (I won’t ever do it again, please don’t ask me to), or all of them for that matter and compare the results when you build a report on that same object. Otherwise I really love the product, there are just some QA things that need sanding off.

Hello, I do not believe it is a current possibility, but it would be a great feature if users were able to integrate pre-built marketing templates into the JO email template when sending a program. I have manually built a newsletter format into a program and while it ended up looking good, it was a manual lift that will need to be recreated if other newsletter type emails are needing to be sent from JO.  Thanks,Kaleigh Shields 

When adding in a new activity you can change the alignment, add bullet points, add numbers, but what you can’t do it change the font size, background color, or text color.  The CSM team is wanting to be able to log activities with different font colors, background colors, and font options but do not have the ability to do that currently. 

In Rules Engine, you have the option in the Setup Rule step to export to S3. After setting this up and running the rule, the actual export to S3 may fail, but the rule itself is still successful. As a result, you are not notified of the failure to export since the rule succeeds.Rule = Success, Export = FailedThis idea is to either:Notify the user if the export fails, OR Have the rule itself fail so the user receives the standard rule failure notification

Hi,It would be great to add the avatar as a variable to the notification system. Something like a {author_avatar} variable to get the kind of result below.It would bring additional design possibilities & a human face in all the automated mails.Emails it would be relevant to a lot of email notifications:@mention New topic (in a category) New reply Private message Topic answered New product updatePlease upvote I you want to pimp your emails with human faces! ;)  

Hello! Minor QOL thing here that may cause some confusion and seems like a low hanging fruit. Currently, when a rule is part of a rule chain and changes are made to the Status of the chain (ie: it is deactivated) the individual rule will continue to show as Active and the Next Run field in the summary shows whatever date and time the “next run” would have been before the chain was deactivated. This can be slightly confusing when browsing through the rules list and has caused me to do several double-takes in the last week or so. It would be fantastic if the Status of the individual rules in a chain was updated to match the status of the chain after changes were made.

When we run events we often advertise externally or have campaigns which utilize UTM parameters appended to the URLs to track campaign attribution like source, medium, campaign, term, or content.Today we have our events setup in inSided and RSVPs to an event trigger a Zapier zap to run that uses the New Attendee in inSided trigger, and adds that registration to Marketo. This works pretty well (though I wish it didn’t require the Zapier part in the middle and there was a Marketo integration, but that’s a different idea).When the user clicks the ATTEND button, we’d like to be able to pass over the UTM values with the registration so we can sufficiently attribute not just the traffic to the events page, but also the leverage those details in marketing systems downstream.

I make heavy use of Moderator Tags for custom reporting and to trigger Zapier automations. For content moderation, it would be great if the filter for Moderator Tags (note: incongruous naming of Moderation Tags on this filter) had the option to do a contains/does not contain or includes/does not include for specific tags. Currently, you can select from a multi-select list of existing tags. However, when I select all and then remove a tag, it does not filter out those with the excluded tags if they are also tagged with one of the other tags. Current UX  

After sending a private message to a member from Control, I realized I needed to make a small edit but there’s no ability to do so. From the production side, my only option was to delete. So, I had to delete the whole message and re-send. Is it possible to have editing functionality (or at least the same ability from the front-end to delete a message) in Control?

Having a way to see which members have their notifications turned off and/or the percentage of members who have their notifications turned off.Use case: Be able to track and determine when a community member doesn’t respond to a question to a topic they posted or being tagged in a conversation.

Have the ability to turn on a setting to give permission to primary roles (for example, registered users) to edit their responses within 60 mins as we do for custom roles

We are unable to use private messaging on our community forum, as we have hard requirement from our legal and people teams to disallow employees from our company for using any systems which have private messaging services which cannot be audited by these teams.  We would like to propose a feature to restrict private messaging functionality for certain users (ideally by badge or domain). Alternatively, backend access to audit messages for specific users may suffice. 

The multi select dropdown profile field works as expected when editing a profile. However, if you mark the field as required for registration, the list is static and users would have to guess that pressing Control will allow them to select multiple values. This isn’t as intuitive as how the field renders in the profile page editor. 

If Points earned could be added as a filter, this would be ideal for formatting the user overview and exports, including for the new Segments section.

This will be key for bulk actions being built for User Overview and Segments (in beta) improvements. Current state: Select all checkbox selects only the 10/25/50/100 on that pageDesired UX: Option to select ALL, free of pagination(Zapier has a good version of this when you are importing data into a Zap) Use case: User segments larger than 100, especially those upwards of 1000Impact example: I thought I had applied a custom role to all the pages in a 250+ user segment. A few days later, a support ticket revealed that I had missed a large number of the users in that segement. Likely because I assumed Select All had included them or because I missed the bulk action on that page of the segment.  

Is there a possibility of adding pronouns to a user's profile in the inSided Community? I think that including pronouns in a user profile is a simple step that can help create a more inclusive and respectful community. Adding pronouns to a user’s profile in a community forum can help create a safe and inclusive space for people of all gender identities. It allows others to address them correctly and respects their gender identity. It also signals that the community welcomes all genders and can help create a more comfortable environment for people questioning or exploring their gender identity. Additionally, it can help to prevent misgendering.

Presently the Clone feature function makes a single clone. The enhancement request is to add the ability to define a number of clones/copies made in the clone action to avoid repetitive clone/configure steps.  Imagine you have a menu that has 8 elements that are differentiated only by their selector value, e.g. menu-list-item=”save”, menu-list-item=”edit”, menu-list-item=”etc.” After mapping one of these, today you would need to clone this feature 7 times; the request is to be able to define a clone quantity to avoid the repetition 

Need:Can we generate a report of custom events/feature match grouped by account name and then by custom events / feature match.Usecase:The usecase here is to identify and compare which accounts (our customers) are adopting our products (and parts of products) well and which are not. In addition, we would also like to share feature adoption reports to key users of individual accounts (our customers).More info:Refer support ticket https://gainsight.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/211883 for more context.

Would like to have the ability to remove View Contacts from the C360. We have View Related Contacts which works and we are using now, View Contacts does not work in our environment and returns an error message when being accessed. Gainsight Support agent confirmed that we are unable to remove View Contacts now.
