How to Improve Ticket Notifications with SMS in Freshdesk

Hey everyone! I’ve been using Freshdesk for managing customer tickets, and it’s been really helpful. However, I’ve noticed that email notifications sometimes get missed or overlooked by customers.I was thinking it might be a good idea to add SMS notifications to send quick updates about ticket statuses or resolutions. Has anyone here tried this before? I found a service that seems to offer SMS integration with Freshdesk, and I was wondering if using a BulkSMS text messenger could improve the efficiency of these notifications.Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! Thanks in advance. 😊

Order folder articles alphabetically Z-A

Is there a way to order tickets alphabetically from Z-A rather than from A-Z? We currently have manually sorted tickets which have titles with versions at the end (like "XXXX 1.2.3" where XXXX never changes) but want to switch to alphabetical ordering so the highest numbered versions show at the top. Is there a way of doing that?

The term "runonflux" is appearing above the meta title and description of my Freshdesk support articles when searched on Google.

My problem is that we are using Freshdesk as our helpdesk and knowledge base tool. We have hosted several support articles through Freshdesk, which are currently accessible on the internet when people search for our brand with 'Support', such as 'signeasy support'.In our case, when searching like this, our support pages appear in the results, but with the name 'runonflux' at the top, just above the meta title and description of each page. This occurs for all of our support articles appearing on Google with this title for each page.I have attached a screenshot for reference. Please let me know if there's any way to change this or provide guidance on how to fix it. I couldn't find the same name anywhere in our page source code, which prompted me to reach out here.

Edge/Chrome won't display embedded iFrame PDF in Freshdesk but will in Freshservice

I am migrating a plethora of PDF documents from an old knowledge base and trying to embed them in new solution articles using iFrame. Freshdesk editor appends “sandbox="allow-scripts allow-forms allow-same-origin allow-presentation” which results in Chrome and Edge displaying “This page has been blocked by Edge”. If I do the same thing in Freshservice with an embedded iFrame PDF it works perfectly in Edge and Chrome and the editor does not append sandbox settings to the end of the code.Is there a setting in Freshdesk that I can turn off to prevent the code being appended?Thanks in advance for any assistance.

URLs that should be visible without a login force a login page

We make most of our KBAs external-facing, however there's a couple of links that redirect to a login page, when we don't want them to.We seem to have visibility configured in our portals correctly; however when a customer who is not logged in (most of our customers do not log in, almost all KBAs should be visible externally without authentication) attempts to access a visible to all link, a login page appears. What customers see: When they click that link, it takes them here: So I went to take a look at the visibility settings for that folder...That folder’s settings: That Category's settings:It's in the correct portal, has the correct settings, so why can't unauthenticated users see the folder?

Navigation menu to Knowledge Base

Hello.I’m wondering if there is any way to add a navigation menu to our knowledge base. When reading an article, the left pane shows “Related Articles” but if we wanted them to be read and followed in a specific order, it’d be much more helpful to have the entire Solution tree as something that can be made expandable. Sounds like basic functionality, but I can’t find how to make it work.Something like:Category A Folder 1 (expandable) Folder 2 (expandable) Folder 3 (expandable) Category B Folder 1 (expandable) Folder 2 (expandable) Category C Folder 1 (expandable) There wouldn’t be a need to always go back home. I know we can directly link from one article to another but that’s not what I’m looking for. Any help will be appreciated.Thank you.

Linking to sections within a solution

Hello, I’ve put together a solution with a table at the top of my page that links to the various headings within the solution i.e. <a href="#anchor1">Receive Application</a> in my table links to the corresponding heading<a id="anchor1">1) Receive Application</a>Initially on saving, all the anchor links in my published solution work but then they quickly stop working, when looking back at the code within the solution, all my id=”anchor” tags are removed leaving just:<a>1) Receive Application</a>Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?Thankyou.

Solutions within an iFrame

I’m looking to see if I can embed our solutions articles on our website - I know we can do that with a pop- up widget, but i’m more interested if we can embed the entire page as an iframe?

Can we restrict view permissions to certain users in the knowledge hub?

Hello everyone,We use Freshdesk as our intranet.We’ve been asked to investigate how we could set view permissions at a category or folder level for solutions for logged-in users.We have a new group of users potentially joining that should only be able to view a specific category.I can see that you can group agents, but is it possible to group logged-in users and assign them permissions?Please do shout if I’ve not explained this clearly enough - grateful for any pointers - thanks, Casey

Show solution article in multiple folders or categories

I found this ancient thread: https://support.freshdesk.com/support/discussions/topics/300507/page/3?url_locale= But would also like to have the possibility to show a solution article in multiple folders.We have multiple products with articles which apply to all, and some only to a few. Right now we’d need to greatly overhaul our main page or get a custom folder view but that’s not an option for us.

Embed or Import PDF into Knowledge Base

How do I embed an existing PDF into a knowledge base article. We have many pdfs created and redoing them is not an option.I have seen articles referencing using the html editor and the embed tag. How exactly would that work when these articles are saved locally and not an any public website?Thanks, Phil

Improve Solutions Text Editor

I have just started to use this and find it very basic in its functionality eg there is no format paste. Also just copying a document from Word looses a lot of the formatting and section numbering etc. which means a lot of work to add documents to the solutions portal.Is there any way a decent third party text editor can be used or as an alternative convert docs from Word correctly without requiring a lot of rework?

Conditional != or !== statements in Liquid

Hi there, I’m trying to use a conditional statement that checks for navigator.useragent sessionStorage.get(‘some item’) localStorage.get(‘some item’)E.g. {% if localStorage.get('some-item') != undefined %}<div>Some div</div>{% else %}<div>Some other div</div>{% endif %} When I preview the page, this doesn’t seem to do what I intend. E.g. if there is no localStorage with that key, it still shows “Some div”

Links are not working

Hi, When I am creating an article, I add a link to another article from solutions. When I am trying to open the created link it is not allowing me and it opens the homepage although the link is reflecting. FYR we have closed common access to solutions. i.e. articles are available for our agents only. I use a lot of links and this would be really helpful if you could give me a solution to this.

Solution Page customisation

Hi Is it possible to customise the solution page>article. The editor allows for editing in code but doesn’t allow for changing the background of the article. For example, i want to insert an image in the background and have a table and text on top. I also want my embedded videos to pop-up when the user clicks on them rather then start playing.Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
