- Multiple Solution Categories for sub-portals - From now on, you can associate more than one solution category for every multiple product you add.
- Portal preview for agents on Solutions and Forums - See how a solution article of forum post looks on the customer portal with the “View on Portal” option.
Also, there is an option on the Customer Portal for the agents to “Edit” the article and “View On Helpdesk”.
- SPAM Filtering on the Forums - From now on, whenever an end user creates a new topic or writes on an existing post, Freshdesk will do an automatic SPAM check. The post(new topic/reply) has to pass this test in order to get published. Whenever there is a topic/reply marked as SPAM on your helpdesk, there will be a SPAM folder within the Forums tab, as shown in the picture below. This will be accessible to agents who has the permission to delete the forum topics.
This folder will have all the topics and replies that have been marked as SPAM. There is also an “Approve and Publish” to mark a topic/reply as Not SPAM.
Now, to clear out everything present in here, there is an “Empty Folder” option.
