Filter grant opportunities *after* they have been Tracked and/or shared to a Curated List
The filters available when performing searches in Pivot-RP are very detailed and helpful; however, I (and the researchers at my department) also need to be able to filter the grant opportunities after they have been Tracked and/or shared to a Curated List. For example, if several hundred opportunities are being tracked, shared, and compiled into lists, the ability to filter these by the same search filters available, that is, Funder, Amount, Deadlines (with options of selecting "7 days from today", "14 days", "30 days", "90 days", "180 days", or the customizable "Select from calendar" option), Limited Submission, Applicant/Institution Location, Activity…

Keywords should be linked in a way to search across profiles and promote connecting users.
Within the profile detail, any keyword should be a link to the search results for that very keyword. Even better, it could be a link to a listing of users who have also included that same keyword.
I understand that you can do this manually with the advanced search, but why not automate it and help make connections easier.

Allow users to sub-filter curated lists and searches
Sharing curated lists and searches is helpful, but sometimes they are still too big or broad to be useful for everyone. It would be great if users could further filter them. Right now that does not appear to be possible.
3 votesFor Curated Searches users will be able to link to view as a Search Result. This will allow the user the further narrow, filter, refine and save the search to their liking.

More options regarding frequency to receive funding alerts
There should be a broader menu of options on how often to receive a funding alert. Right now, it's every Sunday.
The faculty at my institution would like a once per month option. Once per week is overwhelming for them and results in too many emails. We're a small university and don't have departmental staff to help faculty sift through all of the results.
Thus, a drop down bar that allows users to choose their frequency would be best: maybe daily, weekly, every two weeks and monthly.

Additional Sorting Criteria for Awards
Would it be possible to add additional sorting criteria (or filters) to search results for awards? Relevance and Institution are currently available as sorting criteria. I would love to see other ones like date, dollar amount, or PI. Even though search results are not necessarily complete (that's just the nature of the beast), I can see there being lots of uses for searching awards that use the proposed criteria, for example to see what funding a particular researcher has secured over time.

OPT-IN Groups: User/Admin notification
I have created a number of public opt-in groups. As the Admin, I would like to have an automatic notice when a User signs up for the group. I would also like the User to receive an automated email explaining what to expect and where to view the listings. Is that possible?

Add Institution Type Criteria to Advanced Searches to Ensure Eligibility
It was brought to my attention that the SPIN database allows users to make selections regarding "Institution Type" (or something like that) when creating an advanced search. We realized that since we don't have this capability, we really ought to be adding a disclaimer to the curated searches we share, because there's no way to ensure that the list includes only opps that our institution is eligible to apply to. It would be helpful for Pivot to begin tracking and labeling this criteria for opportunities, especially those that are eligible only to MSIs or HBCUs.

Add "match any/match all" choice to keyword field in Conferences and Papers Invited
Similar to how it works for funding opportunities, it would be useful to toggle to "match all" in the keyword field for Conferences and Papers Invited to narrow down results.

More Robust Newsletter Custom Message Options
In the Newsletter Step 3: Add a Heading & Custom Message is currently limited in the custom message section to just bold, italics, link, bullets or numbers. If this section could be expanded to allow for an image, heading, color, font, center, etc. it would be beneficial. These changes would allow us to utilize the Newsletter feature and take advantage of how effortless it would be to send out funding opportunities at our institution. You can change the image in Custom Branding for Newsletter Email Logo, however, it makes it very small at the top of the email. The ability…
