Community Feature Request & Advocacy Form

Empower Your Community with Feature Request Forms

Building a thriving creator community means listening to your audience—and this Community Feature Request & Advocacy Form template makes it easy to collect, organize, and prioritize the features your fans actually want. Whether you're managing a Discord server, a Patreon community, an exclusive membership platform, or any creator-led space, this form gives your audience a clear, structured way to share their needs, vote on priorities, and feel heard.

Why Feature Request Forms Matter for Creators

As a content creator, influencer, or community builder, your platform is only as strong as the experience you deliver. Your fans are on the front lines—they know what's missing, what's frustrating, and what would make their experience better. This form helps you:

• Capture detailed feature requests with context, use cases, and real-world examples
• Identify patterns across multiple requests to spot high-impact improvements
• Prioritize collectively by letting your community vote on what matters most
• Show transparency by making your audience feel like active partners in building your space
• Reduce repetitive DMs and comments by giving fans one place to submit ideas

Instead of scattered feedback across Instagram DMs, YouTube comments, and Discord threads, you get organized, actionable insights—all in one place.

Who This Form Is For

This template is built for creators, influencers, community managers, and digital entrepreneurs who want to:

• Listen and act on fan feedback without losing track of great ideas
• Build in public by involving your community in decision-making
• Improve member experience across platforms like Patreon, Circle, Discord, Slack, or custom community sites
• Demonstrate responsiveness to your most engaged supporters
• Prioritize development based on collective advocacy, not just the loudest voices

Whether you're a YouTuber, podcaster, streamer, course creator, or membership site owner, this form helps you stay connected to your community's needs and build a better experience together.

What This Form Includes

This feature request form captures everything you need to evaluate and prioritize community feedback:

• Feature request title and category to organize submissions by type (content, tools, engagement, access, etc.)
• Pain point description so you understand the "why" behind the request
• Proposed solution with details on how the feature could work
• Use case examples to illustrate real-world scenarios where the feature would help
• Priority voting so the community can signal what matters most
• Impact assessment to gauge how many members would benefit
• Contact info for follow-up if you want to loop requesters into beta testing or updates

You can customize every field to match your community's vibe—keep it casual and conversational for fan-driven spaces, or make it more structured for professional membership communities.

Seamless Integration with Your Creator Stack

Paperform makes it easy to connect this form to the tools you already use. Send feature requests directly to:

• Notion or Airtable for roadmap planning and prioritization boards
• Slack or Discord to notify your team or community moderators instantly
• Google Sheets for easy sorting, filtering, and analysis
• Trello, Asana, or Monday.com to turn requests into trackable tasks
• Your CRM or email tool to follow up with requesters when features go live

With Stepper (stepper.io), you can automate even more: route high-priority requests to your dev team, send auto-confirmations with public roadmap links, or trigger follow-up surveys once a feature is released.

Customization Ideas to Make It Your Own

This template is fully flexible, so you can adapt it to your community's culture and needs:

• Add a voting or upvote field to let people +1 existing requests instead of duplicating submissions
• Include a "feature wishlist" section where members can rank their top 3 priorities
• Embed screenshots or mockups with an image upload field for visual requests
• Gate it for paid members only to reward supporters with a voice in your roadmap
• Create a public changelog by embedding a success page that links to your roadmap or Trello board
• Use conditional logic to show different follow-up questions based on the feature category

You can also match the form's design to your brand—choose fonts, colors, and backgrounds that feel like a natural extension of your content and community space.

How Creators Are Using Feature Request Forms

• Membership site owners collect feedback from paying members to prioritize course content, platform improvements, and community features
• Discord and Slack community managers use feature forms to gather input on channels, bots, events, and moderation tools
• Podcasters and YouTubers let their audience vote on upcoming topics, guest requests, and content format ideas
• Patreon creators give supporters a direct line to suggest perks, tiers, and exclusive content
• Online course creators gather requests for new lessons, resources, and platform improvements
• Streamers collect ideas for new alerts, overlays, community challenges, and viewer engagement features

This isn't just a "suggestion box"—it's a strategic tool for building a community that feels invested in your success.
