How to Add User Feedback and a Product Roadmap to Your Weebly Site

Easily connect your Weebly website with user feedback tools. This guide shows you how to add links to UserJot for collecting suggestions, displaying your product roadmap, and sharing updates directly from your Weebly site.

Why Connect UserJot to Weebly?

Integrating UserJot with your Weebly site provides a straightforward way to interact with your audience. You can:

• Gather user suggestions and ideas through a dedicated feedback board.
• Display your product roadmap publicly, showing users what features are planned or in progress.
• Publish updates and changelogs to keep visitors informed about new developments.

Setting Up UserJot

Before adding links to Weebly, you need a UserJot account and board.

1. Visit UserJot and create a free account. UserJot sets up initial boards for you.
2. Your feedback board, roadmap, and updates page will be accessible via a UserJot subdomain (e.g., yourproject.userjot.com) or a custom domain you configure (e.g., feedback.yourcompany.com).
3. Note the URLs for your feedback board (/), roadmap (/roadmap), and updates page (/updates). See examples in the footer links guide.

Adding UserJot Links to Your Weebly Site

The simplest way to integrate UserJot is by adding direct links to your Weebly site’s navigation menu or footer. Here’s how to add links to your Weebly footer:

1. Log in to your Weebly Site Editor.
2. Scroll down to the footer area of your website preview.
3. From the left-hand build panel, find the “Text” element.
4. Drag and drop the “Text” element into your desired location within the footer section.
5. Click inside the newly added text box.
6. Type the text for your link (e.g., “Share Feedback,” “Product Roadmap,” “Latest Updates”).
7. Highlight the text you just typed.
8. Click the link icon (looks like a chain) in the text formatting toolbar that appears.
9. Select “Website URL”.
10. Paste the URL for your UserJot feedback board (e.g., https://yourproject.userjot.com/ or https://feedback.yourcompany.com/).
11. Check “Open link in a new window” if desired.
12. Click Save or outside the link editor.
13. Repeat steps 6-12 for your Roadmap (/roadmap) and Updates (/updates) links.
14. Publish your Weebly site for the changes to go live.

You can use a similar process to add links to other text areas or use the “Pages” tab > “Add” > “External Page” option to add links directly to your main navigation menu.

Matching UserJot to Your Site Design

For a cohesive look between your Weebly site and UserJot pages:

• Use UserJot’s branding options to upload your logo, favicon, and set a primary color matching your Weebly site’s design.
• Consider setting up a custom domain (e.g., feedback.yourcompany.com) so the URL aligns with your main Weebly domain.
