💻 Web App Updates

What's New?

  • All new in-line Share to Facebook social advocacy tool.

    Haystack's social advocacy tool allows you to easily encourage your viewers to share a specific link or image on Facebook. This is a powerful tool for company news, announcements, and updates that you'd like to distribute far and wide!

    When your viewers click the share button, they'll be taken to a Facebook share page with the content fully populated and ready to post on their Facebook feed.

    You can add a social advocacy button to posts, events, and resource pages—anywhere you're using the slash command editor.

    1. When creating content, click into the content body area.

    2. Type a forward slash to open the rich content editor and scroll to select Share to Facebook in the Social Advocacy section.

    3. Complete the fields as needed

    4. Publish and your viewers will be able to share the link you configured on their own Facebook feeds.


  • Award recognition badges to employees in bulk!
    If your team is using our Employee Recognition toolset, awarding badges is about to get a whole lot easier. Now, in addition to awarding badges one-by-one, you can bulk award them using a simple .csv file.

    You'll find this option on your Badges page and Manage Badges admin page. Simply click the three-dot button and select Batch Award. This will open a modal where you can download a .csv template, fill it out, and upload the completed file to award your badge in bulk.
