How to Add UserJot Feedback and Roadmap Links to Your Strikingly Site

Want to gather user ideas and share product plans directly from your Strikingly website? UserJot provides simple tools for feedback boards, product roadmaps, and changelogs that you can easily connect to your Strikingly site using direct links. This guide explains how to integrate these features.

Why Connect UserJot to Your Strikingly Site?

Linking UserJot from your Strikingly website provides clear benefits. You can centralize user suggestions and ideas using a dedicated feedback board. Displaying your product roadmap keeps users informed about upcoming features. Announcing new features through a changelog helps maintain user engagement.

Setting Up Your UserJot Project

Before adding links to Strikingly, you need to set up your feedback board, roadmap, and changelog in UserJot.

  1. Create your UserJot account and set up your first project.
  2. UserJot will provide you with unique URLs for your feedback board, roadmap (/roadmap), and updates page (/updates). These will typically be on a UserJot subdomain (e.g., https://yourproject.userjot.com/).
  3. Optionally, you can configure a custom domain (e.g., https://feedback.yourdomain.com/) for a more branded experience.
  4. Decide on the link text you want to use on your Strikingly site (e.g., “Share Feedback”, “Product Roadmap”, “What’s New”). You can find examples in the footer link guide.

The most direct way to integrate UserJot with Strikingly is by adding links to your site’s navigation menu or footer.

  1. Log in to your Strikingly account and open the editor for the site you want to modify.

  2. Navigate to Navigation or Footer:

    • For Navigation: Go to the ‘Settings’ panel (usually on the left), then select ‘Navigation’. Click ‘Add New Link’.
    • For Footer: Scroll down to the bottom of your page and click to edit the footer section. You might need to add or edit a text element within the footer columns.

  3. Configure the Link:

    • In the link settings (whether in Navigation or editing footer text), paste the full URL to your UserJot feedback board (e.g., https://yourproject.userjot.com/ or https://feedback.yourdomain.com/).
    • Enter the clear link text you decided on earlier (e.g., “Share Feedback”).
    • Choose if you want the link to open in a new tab (recommended for external links).

  4. Repeat for Roadmap and Updates: Follow the same steps to add separate links for your UserJot Roadmap (e.g., https://yourproject.userjot.com/roadmap) and Updates/Changelog (e.g., https://yourproject.userjot.com/updates), using appropriate link text like “Roadmap” or “Latest Updates”.

  5. Save and Publish: Save your link changes within the Navigation or Footer settings. Click ‘Publish’ in the Strikingly editor to make the changes live on your website.

  6. Test the Links: Visit your live Strikingly site and test each link to confirm it correctly directs users to your UserJot pages.

Matching UserJot to Your Site Design

For a cohesive user experience, align your UserJot pages with your Strikingly site’s look and feel.

  • Use UserJot’s branding options to upload your logo and set a primary color that matches your website’s design.
  • Consider setting up a custom domain so users stay within your brand’s web presence when viewing feedback or the roadmap.

Conclusion

Adding UserJot links to your Strikingly navigation or footer gives your visitors a straightforward path to share feedback, view your plans, and see product updates. Start collecting valuable input on your Strikingly site today.
