Its so weird. Im trying to create an email with headers and footers but upon saving, the header and footer just goes away

I just wanted to know how chats are merged for a particular account in Intercom. So if i have the same user coming to inbox second time , i should be able to see his/her previous conversations also

Do your customers ever seem to stop receiving your messages mid conversation?

With surveys turned ON, is there a way - rule / tag / specific macro / or ? to turn off survey responses for a specific conversation where a specific macro is used?For comparison, in Zendesk you can tag a macro as 'Do Not Survey' so its automated no surveys go out.

When our customers are live chatting with us, they are not able to interact with our software correctly. If they need to click on a feature/option that is hidden behind the chat window, they must close out of the chat completely, interact with our software, then come back into the chat. This is a clunky experience for the user. Especially when we are asking them to interact with the software as part of the live chat.

Is there any way we can work around the limitations that the article has? We have some pretty long articles, with several sections, and we can't manage them with such restricted tools. Maybe there's a way we can make it work?

We have multiple workspaces and team members who work in both. We are also using the Balanced assignment, so if they are active they are expected to work incoming conversations. However, I noticed when setting them up in an additional workplace, if they are active in one, they are also active in another. How do I make it so they are active in one but away in the other? It's disrupting our workflow and is causing additional work 😞 Thank you!

Hi! We're trying to measure how satisfied users are with our articles and we'd like to use the reactions to do it. However, we've got a very low reaction rate. We've already added a written CTA to the articles. Any other ideas? Thank you!

When messages are sent via email, any signature footers (particularly complex HTML signatures) cause a lot of unnecessary bloat. Appreciate the reasons for not rendering the HTML, however ideally we'd like to strip out the footer but still be able to access it when viewing the "raw email". There are a couple of open source projects that aim to facilitate removing signatures:https://github.com/mailgun/talon/p>https://github.com/Smile-SA/signatureremover/p> Would this be a feature that Intercom is considering/would consider adding? 

The permission reminders are crucial for email marketing. How come there's no solution?

Currently, I have a bot that launches from a button. We've decided that the bot would actually be better suited as a from a new conversation bot. How can I switch the bot to from a new conversation? ​If I go to copy the bot it only gives me the options of from a button and from another bot. Is this supposed to happen? Just hoping to avoid rebuilding the boat from scratch as that would take quite some time.  Thanks in advance! ​

 Are there any plans to enable workload management based on channel or tag and not just team? For example, I'd like to be able to limit the number of live chat messages that my teammates receive while allowing them to still receive emails at the same time. In the above scenario one could receive an unlimited number of new emails which can be handled on the agents own time, while having a cap on chats which require the most immediate attention up front.

I have designed a multi page tour which guides users to different pages within the application to show them important features and what they can do. However, when a user traverses from one page to another page, the modal window (as part of the product) tour appears even before the actual page is loaded. For end users the tour appears as a very wonky experience as a modal window/tooltip appears even before the page is loaded. Any ideas why this may be happening or how this can be resolved?

Banners are a web app only feature, so how do accomplish somthing similar in the iOS app? I've seen the article that discusses dynamic custom bots for iOS which says to use and attribute that gets populated with iOS app current screen. That attribute is then used in the Rules to trigger a message. I am thinking if we can get an attribute like that then we could use a Post message in lieu of a banner. What do you all think?

What just happened to Intercom?

Scenario:We are trying to get a banner to display on our website and user account to remind the client that they have an upcoming Calendly booked appointment with us. We therefore want to use the date and time of the call in the banner message. And display the Banner message continually until the appointment time. Problem:However, it doesn't appear as though a Banner can be triggered to appear from custom data. Is that correct? And if so, is there another way to achieve this objective?

I've tried to use getElementByClassName('intercom-post') but its not good enough selector. Is there an api like Intercom('onShow', f()) for posts (not the messenger)?

I've been on the lookout for a way to include a checklist of sorts with our new user onboarding. A co-worker shared this from what I believe was Kajabi. It looks like they're Intercom users as well. Anyone know what this app/integration could be?

We would like to implement a custom bot that also shows some short explanation videos in order to solve customer request. For example: Customer doesn't know how to scan the product in our app - we would like to explain it in a video as its easier to understand than only text. I saw that you can add a welcoming video but I didn't see anything about videos within the custom bot itself.

I've set up a product tour with pointer steps. Why does this tour not fire?

I'd like to customize my outgoing messages from inbox (not outbound), a header with our logo, our social media, etc. I've created a template, but I can't find a way to insert it to my outgoing mails in inbox.Has anyone solved this?
