These are the enhancement requests submitted by users. Feel free to reach out with additional suggestions via the Contact Us form.
Bulletins
- Add a special link in Bulletin settings that administrators can share with users. This link would take them directly to the correct place to add a bulletin, skipping the normal navigation steps.
Calendars
- Allow recurring calendar events to include images.
- Allow users to add custom locations to their list of favorite event locations.
Directory
- Allow users to upload an audio file showing how to pronounce their name, along with a text pronunciation guide.
Email+
- Add tracking information to links when an email is sent, so link activity can be measured more easily.
- Add clear instructions to the Files section.
- Support mail merge fields in the View in Browser option.
- Provide an option to create an archive index page listing past emails. Archived emails would remain exact copies of the originals and could be kept indefinitely.
- Let users choose who receives the email report. The default recipient would be the current user.
- Let users choose when the report is delivered after a mailing, from 1 to 14 days later. The default would be 24 hours.
- Let users define a default seed group that is automatically included on new or copied emails.
- Let users define a default access group for new or copied emails so teams can share responsibility and avoid access bottlenecks.
- Roll out new campus-wide email skins based on designs from the Branding team. (target date: March)
- Meet with users to gather feedback on what they want from reporting.
Forms
- Allow users to choose a campus-branded skin for emails sent through Forms and Surveys.
- Add a new question type that allows a form to collect a date, a time, or both in a single question. It would also support advanced validation, such as allowing only weekdays between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
- Allow users to upload multiple files at the same time.
- For forms that allow users to save and finish later, remove the restriction that prevents them from moving to the next page when a required question is unanswered.
Short URL
- Add tracking attributes to short URLs so users can better measure clicks and usage.
- Add the ability to run or pull multiple short URL usage reports more easily.
- Add automatic reporting for monthly, quarterly, or yearly notification of usage.
Webtools
- Add a new Analytics subtab on the homepage that displays usage and activity information for the items a user has created.
- Add a new section to the Webtools home screen above the pods that shows a quick list of the items you are currently working on.
- Add an optional setting that helps take users directly to the place they are most likely trying to reach when editing content.
