How to Add User Feedback, Roadmap & Changelog Features to Your Zyro Website

Want to collect user ideas, share your product plans, or announce updates directly from your Zyro website? This guide explains how to connect UserJot to your Zyro site easily by adding simple links.

Why Connect UserJot to Your Zyro Site?

Integrating UserJot with your Zyro site lets you gather valuable user suggestions, display your product roadmap publicly, and publish updates about new features. It creates dedicated spaces for users to interact with your product development process. You can learn more about UserJot’s capabilities:

Setting Up Your UserJot Project

Before adding links to Zyro, you need a UserJot project set up.

  1. Create a UserJot Account: If you haven’t already, sign up and create your first UserJot project.
  2. Identify Your UserJot URLs: UserJot hosts your feedback board, roadmap, and changelog pages. Find the URLs for these pages in your UserJot dashboard. They will look like https://yourproject.userjot.com/ or, if you’ve configured one, a custom domain like https://feedback.yourdomain.com/. Specific pages use paths like /roadmap and /updates. You can see examples of how to structure these links here.

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

  1. Log in to Zyro: Access your Zyro account and open the editor for the website you want to modify.
  2. Edit Footer: Scroll down to the footer section of your page template. Click on the footer area to enable editing.
  3. Add Text Element: If needed, add a new text element to the footer where you want the links to appear.
  4. Type Link Text: Enter the text you want users to click on. Examples: “Share Feedback”, “Product Roadmap”, “Latest Updates”.
  5. Create the Link: Select the text you just typed. Click the link icon (usually looks like a chain) in the text editing toolbar that appears.
  6. Enter URL: In the link settings popup, select the option for linking to a Web address or External URL. Paste the corresponding UserJot URL (e.g., https://yourproject.userjot.com/ for feedback, https://yourproject.userjot.com/roadmap for the roadmap, https://yourproject.userjot.com/updates for the changelog).
  7. Apply Changes: Save the link settings.
  8. Repeat: Repeat steps 4-7 for each UserJot link (Feedback, Roadmap, Updates).
  9. Publish: Remember to publish your Zyro site for the changes to go live.
  1. Log in to Zyro: Access your Zyro account and open the website editor.
  2. Open Menu Settings: Find the ‘Website Menu’ or ‘Navigation’ settings in the Zyro editor interface (often in the left sidebar).
  3. Add Link Item: Choose the option to ‘Add item’ or ‘Add link’.
  4. Select Link Type: Choose ‘External Link’ or ‘Web address’ as the link type.
  5. Configure Link:
    • Enter the Link Text (e.g., “Feedback”, “Roadmap”).
    • Paste the corresponding UserJot URL.
  6. Save and Arrange: Save the new menu item. You can usually drag and drop menu items to reorder them.
  7. Repeat: Repeat steps 3-6 for other UserJot pages you want in the navigation.
  8. Publish: Publish your Zyro site to see the updated navigation.

Matching UserJot to Your Site Design

For a more integrated appearance:

  • Use UserJot’s branding options to change the project name, upload your logo and favicon, and set a primary color that matches your Zyro site’s design.
  • Consider setting up a custom domain (e.g., feedback.yourdomain.com) so the URLs feel like a natural part of your website.

Conclusion

Adding links to UserJot from your Zyro website is a straightforward way to start collecting user feedback, sharing your plans, and announcing updates. You can now easily connect with your users directly through your Zyro site using UserJot.
