Managing contributions on the platform

Contributions on the platform include comments, inputs (ideas, proposals, or posts), and votes.

  • Participants can create and edit their own content during active phases

  • Admins and project managers can moderate, edit, or add inputs and votes depending on permissions

  • Customization options in project setup determine which actions are enabled

Configuring contribution settings

  • In Projects → Setup tab, toggle whether participants can submit posts, comments, or reactions.

  • Optionally disable dislikes or set vote limits per participant

  • Admins can still add submissions after a phase has ended

Limitations:

  • No limit on comments

  • No limit on inputs

  • Only votes can be controlled

As a participant:

  • Comments: Locate your comment → Click the three dots → Edit/Delete

  • Inputs: Locate your input → Click the three dots → Edit/Delete
