A list view of the proposals has been added to the workflow. You'll find the list view option in the top right corner of the workflow.

Copy and paste multiple email addresses when adding  users to channels and challenges

Need to invite many users to your Orchidea project? We have added support for copying and pasting multiple email addresses at once.
Copy a list of email addresses to invite those users to a channel or challenge. Orchidea will process all users from the list at once and divide it to existing users and missing users to be invited.

Improved home page proposal submission 

Submit proposals faster directly at the home page. Just click on the "Create proposal" button. It is easier now to select the right channel or challenge as you can see channel and challenge descriptions.proposal helper

  • You have now more control of the positioning of the channel banner picture
  • Proposal name has been added to the task email notification

Best regards,

Orvo & Orchidea team
