Feedback Button Creative
About Feedback Button Creatives
The feedback button is similar to feedback tabs and sliders, enabling you to make accessible creatives responsive to different device sizes. This creative makes it much easier to quickly add feedback buttons for your websites.
Designing a Feedback Button
Setting up the Feedback Button Creative
Once you have access to this feature, the Feedback button is available alongside other creatives. You can choose to build your feedback button with the guided Website Feedback setup, or you can build your feedback button on its own by scrolling down to the piece by piece section.
Once you select the Feedback button, you’ll have the option to name your creative.
Look & Feel
In the Look & Feel section, you can customize the overall look and feel of the creative as follows:
- Button position: Configure where the button should appear on the webpage.
- Button text: Specify the text on the button.
- Button icon: Choose the icon that you would like to show on the button to the left of your text.
- Text color: Choose the color of your button text.
- Button color: Choose the color of the button itself.
- Button shape: Configure the border radius of your button. This determines how rounded the corners are.
- Use my own button: Upload your own image to use as the button. You have the option to use the image size as-is or resize it to the appropriate size. If you use your own button, you will get a field where you can enter alt text for it, for use with screen reading technology.
- Use a template: Use a survey theme as a template for the creative’s style settings. This will import the primary color and question spacing settings of that survey theme.
Qtip: The settings in the creative are disconnected from the theme used as a template. The creative’s settings do not update if the template theme changes, and changing the creative’s settings will not change the template theme. - Customize CSS: Customize the CSS of the feedback button as desired. You can add custom classes and properties in addition to the default ones. Edits made here may not be reflected in the preview; remember to test your intercept before deployment by completing the guided setup.
Attention: The following code is provided as-is and requires programming knowledge to implement. Qualtrics Support does not offer assistance or consultation on custom coding. You can always try asking our community of dedicated users instead.Warning: If there are multiple feedback buttons on the same page, custom CSS will affect all buttons on the page. The CSS of the intercept that was loaded last will be applied to all intercepts on the page. We recommend only using 1 feedback button on a page when using custom CSS.

All the above options can be separately configured to control how the feedback button will display for desktop web vs. mobile web browsers – using the Web (Desktop) or Mobile web tabs.
For Mobile web, there is also an option to completely disable this creative, if needed. Select Don’t show this button on mobile browser to turn it off for mobile.
Survey Display
In the Survey display section, you can control how the actual survey shows up once the user clicks on the feedback button.
The survey display options for Web (Desktop) are:
- Web display:
- Slider: The survey will show up in a slider that slides in and out. If you have add an icon to dismiss the feedback button enabled, clicking the X will dismiss both the slider and feedback button (e.g., the entire creative will disappear from the screen).
- Overlay: The survey will show up in an embedded window. You will also be able to set the darkness level of the overlay with the Fade background field. If you have add an icon to dismiss the feedback button enabled, clicking the X will dismiss the embedded survey, but you’ll still see the feedback button and be able to re-select it, if desired.
- New window: The survey will show up in a new window.
- Survey size: Control the survey size (height) on your page in terms of percentage of overall page height. Only an option if you choose Slider for web display.
- Add an icon to dismiss the feedback button: Add the option for users to make the feedback button go away.
- Iframe title: If you’ve added an embedded target to your corresponding intercept, add a title that screen readers can interpret.
The survey display options for Mobile web are:
- Mobile web display:
- Pull up: The survey will show up in a pull-up window that will cover a part of the screen. If you have add an icon to dismiss the feedback button enabled, clicking the X will dismiss the embedded survey, but you’ll still see the feedback button and be able to re-select it, if desired.
Qtip: The appearance of the pull-up window can be adjusted using custom code which requires programming knowledge to implement. Qualtrics Support does not offer assistance or consultation on custom coding. You can always try asking our community of dedicated users instead. If you’d like to know more about our custom coding services, please contact your Qualtrics Account Executive.
- New tab: The survey will show up on a new browser tab. If this is selected, you will not have the option to add an iframe title because you will navigate to a new browser tab for the survey instead.
- Pull up: The survey will show up in a pull-up window that will cover a part of the screen. If you have add an icon to dismiss the feedback button enabled, clicking the X will dismiss the embedded survey, but you’ll still see the feedback button and be able to re-select it, if desired.
- Iframe title: If you’ve added an embedded target to your corresponding intercept, add a title that screen readers can interpret.

Add translations for your button text. See Translating Feedback Buttons & Responsive Dialogs for step-by-step instructions.
Saving and Publishing the Feedback Button Creative
As you add changes to the feedback button creative, please be sure to periodically save your work by clicking on the Save button on the top-right hand corner, just above the preview area.
Once you are ready to publish your creative, click on Publish. This will make it so that you can push the creative live to your mobile app.
Configuring Intercepts
Feedback button creatives can be used with standard intercepts. Just make sure that when you set the intercept’s creative, choose the specific creative under the Feedback button section.
Feedback Button Changes
Attention: If your feedback creative has different options than what is displayed on this page, or if it was created before September 27, 2019, chances are it is an entirely different creative called the feedback tab (not the feedback button). This is an older creative that is technically a different creative than the one described on this page. You can no longer create the older Feedback Tab, although if you created one in the past, it will never be deleted or disabled.
However, we encourage you to create a new feedback button and try the experience described on this page. This new version is user-friendly and accessible without the need for additional JavaScript-based updates that were required in the past. For example, you can easily set different desktop and mobile options right inside the creative, instead of having to use separate creatives customized with unique actions in an intercept.
