How Do I Activate, Deactivate or Edit Feedback Types?

Go to Settings > click Community > click the Suggestion Box tab.

  • To deactivate a type (so it isn't selectable when submitting a suggestion), untick the Active category box.

  • To rename a type — for example, from "New Idea" to "Good Idea" — change the wording in the label option and click Save Changes at the bottom of the settings page.

  • To change the placeholder text, repeat the above in the Prompt area.

How Can I Manage the List of Available Statuses?

Go to Settings > click Community > click the Suggestion Box tab.

  • To add a status, type the name and click Add Status. This adds the status to the list of available options.

  • To edit an existing status name, click the pencil icon. Any suggestions with this status will be updated with the new name.

  • To delete a status, click the dustbin icon where applicable. Don't worry — the suggestion isn't deleted, it reverts to its earlier state.

How Can I Manage the List of Available Tags?

Go to Settings > click Community > click the Suggestion Box tab.

  • To add a tag, type the name and click Add Tag. This adds the tag to the list of available options when next processing suggestions.

  • To edit an existing tag, click the pencil icon. Any suggestion with this tag will be updated with the new name.

  • To delete a tag, click the dustbin icon where applicable. Don't worry — the suggestion isn't deleted, only the tag is removed.
