Request to Reconsider DM Rules for Starter Plan
Please consider making DM rules available on the Starter plan. As I've been building my educational community on Heartbeat, I've found that DM management is truly a foundational feature for creating a structured, professional learning environment - not just something needed at scale. Currently, this feature being limited to higher plans feels like it treats DM control as a "nice-to-have" scaling feature, when it's actually fundamental to how many communities need to operate from the start. Small educational communities, coaching programs, and professional development groups all need this level of structure regardless of their member count. Would the team consider moving DM rules to the Starter plan? This would make Heartbeat much more accessible for educators and community builders who need professional-grade moderation tools but are just starting out. Thank you for considering this feedback.

Copy workflows when creating new cohorts
Cohort-based courses generate new lesson IDs per cohort, which means all lesson-attached workflows (popups, automations, etc.) are lost and must be manually recreated each time. This is especially painful when workflows contain rich content like GIF/video embeds that can't be easily duplicated. Expected behavior: When a new cohort is created, workflows attached to lessons in the previous cohort should automatically carry over to the corresponding lessons in the new cohort. Customer impact: Creators running recurring cohort programs have to manually rebuild every workflow for every new cohort — error-prone and time-consuming. Missed workflows mean students don't receive key moments (e.g., graduation gift popups).

14 day withdrawal right for EU customers at checkout
For customers within the EU, digital products are subject to a 14-day withdrawal period. However, this right can be waived if the customer explicitly agrees to it before completing the purchase — typically via a checkbox during checkout. At the moment, I haven’t found a way to implement this technically within your system. It also cannot be solved through community rules or any terms shown after purchase inside the membership area, as the consent must be collected before the transaction is completed. This is quite critical for me (and likely for other EU-based creators as well), as without this explicit consent, customers can consume the full course within 14 days and still request a refund — which does happen in practice.

Replace emoji with custom image for chat channels titles
The option to only use an emoji next to my channel title does not fit my branding. I would like to have the option to upload my own image.

At-a-Glance Event Sign-Up Numbers
I would love the ability to quickly see how many people are registered for each event at a glance, without needing to click into each event individually.

Clearly show the signup link used in the Abandoned members tab
It would be helpful if we could see what link/product the abandoned person is from. Currently, I have to copy the link into my clipboard, and manually check the Signup links one by one.

If a pinned post has a video, it gets omitted the moment the post is pinned. I would like to display more content in the pinned post, and perhaps sometimes just an image or a video.

Move past events to Past Events immediately after they are over instead of waiting
The events on the platform don't immediately move to the Past Events section even when they're done. It would be great if there was a way to change that so that as soon as an event is over, it just moves to Past Events instead of waiting for the day to be over for it to be considered "past event"?

Ability to delete individual DM messages & DM threads.
I need the option for members in my growth & healing community to delete messages sent to them that they do not want to see. I'd also like the ability to delete full DM threads as well.

Member Invite Tracking
Make invites traceable so you can se if they ahve been opened and the ability to seemlessly re-invite. There is no visibility and people constantly complain they do not get the invite. Mighty Networks does a great job of this and tracking is very detailed.

Embed prior comments within the Lesson/Assignment
My students are NOT taking the time to read through a long list of a chat channel to interact with one another. It’s a time waster. Please add the prior comments on a lesson/assignment directly inside the lesson/assignment itself so students can see what others have posted about it and engage more.

Email blast visibility
As a community admin, I should be cc'd on any email blasts that I send from my community. If each blast can be visible within Heartbeat (as a Workflow that has ran, for example) that would give me confirmation that the emails were sent successfully. There's nowhere to check what happened to an email blast at the moment.

Clickable Box Needs for Payment Checkout
You currently have the ability to have customers agree to Terms of Service at checkout, but it displays them. This is not legally adequate. We need a clickable box (an affirmative action) for the customer to click and agree to those linked terms BEFORE they pay.

Community Support Email (more than one)
I’m the community support email recipient for our account. We have different staff running different events. I would love to be able to set different email addresses to receive responses for the events they own. As it is, I have to perform A LOT of air traffic control and figure out what goes where because emails aren’t clearly labeled for what they’re responding to. If someone is running a cohort, they should receive responses for those cohorts and events.

Upcoming Event Box: Show time of event and a link to event details
Currently the "Upcoming Event" box only shows the date of the event and not the time. The only button available is RSVP, but there's no direct link to the event details so one can know if they want to RSVP. Without these, it's often useless. Adding the time and a link to the event would make the event box useful.
