Feature requests

While I really like how simple the idea submission form is, we want our contributors to be thinking about risk and impact when they make their suggestions. Customizing the form - changing the default text, and/or adding additional fields would be really helpful! I want to be able to ask: what problem are you trying to solve? What is your proposed solution?

I'd like to add some custom links to the menu. Things like links to our help docs or maybe an on boarding video.

I'm more interested in abiliity to add my own Google Tag Manager or chat widget, etc, so the JS box. But also opening up the ability to override CSS would be great.

As someone who's submitted an idea I want to know roughly how long it might be before it makes it into the product.

Would be incredibly useful if I could use Frill to gather feedback on feature ideas through Polls. For instance, if I'm considering a certain feature, or want feedback about changing something in the app, I could create a poll and invite users to participate. Since the results will directly feed into ideas / roadmap / announcements, it makes sense that Frill would be a useful host for the poll itself.

It would be great if we can configure this on mobile apps to get feedback. Many people leave comments about issues on App stores because there's no such option to leave feedback or suggestions on the app (without leaving the app).

In roadmap board, I'm only seeing the titles in the card. If we can add some excerpts it will looks much more descriptive and elegant.

The ability to add internal tags/categories/segmentation to users and ideas, that are not visible by end users but are by internal users. Why: When reviewing user feedback, what really matters is the type of user/organisation they are. E.g. if we as a SaaS product are targeting one specific type of company (e.g. B2C), and loads of users from B2B companies have voted on a feature, that is really important to know. We want to prioritise features asked for by our target market. Not all the time, but it is important that we have a way to at least see/filter the submitted ideas in this way so that we can make informed decisions about what we decide to build.

I know there are some other ideas out there that might reference this, but they seemed more primarily focused on custom JS. I don't want custom JS, I believe that belongs with the platform and integrations. But I would really like custom CSS. Frill is very customizable through languages and white labeling, but this would allow it to be perfect. Here is an example. We don't like how the context menu is only visible on hover. User's won't know they have options unless they happen to hover. Custom CSS would allow us to override the visibility setting and show it all the time. Yes this could also be an option in Frill, but it let's Frill find a happy medium between tons of configurations and UI flexibility.

The ability to create a Github ticket from Frill Ideas and when those ideas change status the Frill status updates in the roadmap as well

Currently theres only an option to notify whenever there's a status change. I want the ability to notify only when the status is set to shipped but not the other statuses.

We need to have a field in each idea for us to indicate the expected delivery date. In settings, we should be able to select the type of date to use: quarters, months, weeks, specific dates (we will be using quarters). This field should be visible but read only to external users, both in the list of ideas and the roadmap. A very useful tool would be to have ideas shown in a timeline display of the roadmap, considering this new field. This could be delivered at a later stage :) A nice to have would be to be able to select, for each idea, if the delivery date field is visible to external users. This way, as a product manager, I could start planning the delivery timeline and only make them public when I'm ready to accept that commitement. Although I have found similar ideas and voted for them, they do not reflect my exact needs, so I'm posting this as new idea.

I don't always want to push from Frill, more often than not, I need to pull from Jira. Currently I have to add the issue as comment. Works well enough but why not go one step further in your integration so that the experience is consistent for users.

We want to link to various sections of our app and back to the Frill platform from the widget. Adding HTML ability to the description field would make this simple to manage.

I think adding the option to exclude people based on their email address would be a valuable addition to our segmentation feature.
