Participants see only their own proposals in a channel

 

Channel managers can now enable a setting that lets users and guests view only their own proposals in a channel. This feature is especially beneficial for collecting invention disclosure reports.

You can also use it with public channels and, for example, open a channel for collecting students' thesis topic suggestions.
