How to Add User Feedback, Roadmap & Changelog to Your SITE123 Site with UserJot

Want to collect user ideas, share your product plans, or announce updates directly from your SITE123 website? This guide explains how to connect UserJot to your SITE123 site by adding simple links, providing dedicated pages for feedback, your roadmap, and a changelog.

Why Connect UserJot to SITE123?

Integrating UserJot with your SITE123 site offers several advantages:

  • Gather User Suggestions: Create a dedicated feedback board where visitors can submit ideas and vote on existing ones.
  • Display Your Product Roadmap: Use UserJot’s roadmap feature to show customers what features are planned, in progress, or completed.
  • Publish Updates: Keep users informed about new features and improvements using a clean changelog.

Adding these features helps build community, increases transparency, and gathers valuable insights for your product directly from your SITE123 audience.

Setting Up Your UserJot Boards

Before linking from SITE123, you need your UserJot pages ready:

  1. Create a UserJot Account: If you haven’t already, sign up at UserJot. Your project will get a default subdomain like yourproject.userjot.com. See the getting started guide for initial setup.
  2. Get Your Links: Note the URLs for your main feedback board (https://yourproject.userjot.com/), roadmap (/roadmap), and updates page (/updates).
  3. (Optional) Use a Custom Domain: For a branded look, you can set up a custom domain (e.g., feedback.yourdomain.com). If you do, use these URLs instead. Find examples in the adding links guide.

You can easily add links to your UserJot pages in your SITE123 website’s navigation menu or footer.

Method 1: Adding to the Header Navigation

  1. Log in to your SITE123 account and open the Website Editor.
  2. Go to the Pages tab on the left sidebar.
  3. Click the Add New Page button.
  4. Select the Link page type.
  5. Choose External Link.
  6. In the Link Text field, enter clear text like “Share Feedback”, “Product Roadmap”, or “Latest Updates”.
  7. In the URL field, paste the corresponding UserJot link (e.g., https://yourproject.userjot.com/ or https://yourproject.userjot.com/roadmap).
  8. Click Save.
  9. You can drag the new link in the Pages list to reorder its position in your site’s main menu.
  10. Repeat for each UserJot page (Feedback, Roadmap, Updates) you want to link.

Method 2: Adding to the Footer

  1. In the SITE123 Website Editor, scroll down to the bottom of your site preview.
  2. Hover over the footer area and click Edit.
  3. You can often add text directly to the footer content areas. Find a suitable spot and type your link text (e.g., “Give Feedback | Our Roadmap | What’s New”).
  4. Select the text you just typed.
  5. Click the Link icon in the text editor toolbar.
  6. Choose External Link.
  7. Paste the appropriate UserJot URL.
  8. Click Save or Apply.
  9. Repeat for other links as needed.

Tips for Links:

  • Use clear, action-oriented text (e.g., “Suggest a Feature”, “See Our Plans”).
  • Place links where users expect them, like the main navigation or footer.
  • Check that your links work correctly after publishing your SITE123 site changes.

Matching UserJot to Your Site Design

For a consistent experience, customize UserJot’s appearance:

  • Use UserJot’s branding options to upload your logo, favicon, and set a primary color that matches your SITE123 site.
  • Consider setting up a custom domain so the URL feels like part of your main website (e.g., feedback.yoursite123site.com).
