Display funder name in calendar view
The calendar view would be more useful if the funder name was displayed on the label with the award name. For instance, I want to create a calendar with major early career awards but the majority have generic names like "young investigator award" or "new faculty award." Someone had asked for a similar update to enable this feature in the details view, but it would be optimal to have the names on the labels too, before opening up the details view.

When using SSO, the ability for clients to specify a custom page that users will be redirected to when logging out.
For those who want users to land on a page that will log them out of their SSO system, and not just Pivot, upon logout.

Import publications/integration
Develop a way to integrate with additional tools such as Digital Measures. Our faculty use that program much more extensively than they do ORCID and it would be nice to be able to import their publications from that system.

Allow more than three key words in a search
It would be nice to be able to use as many keywords as needed in a funding search. We are creating curated searches for specific research areas and in order to get the results we want it requires the use of more than three keywords. It would be nice to be able to capture everything in one search rather than have multiple searches to serve the same group. For instance, there are many different keywords to capture relevant opportunities in quantum science and engineering, but having to choose only three forces a choice that leaves out many relevant opportunities. It…

Add extra information to opps in Tracked Opp List
When opportunities appear in the Tracked Opp list , it is only the opportunity name that shows, which can be difficult when multiple opportunities have similar names, e.g. "Research Fellowship".
It would be beneficial to see additional opp detail in this list, especially funder information, in order to differentiate between similarly named opps, and to be consistent with other parts of Pivot-RP

Residencies
It would be helpful to be able to exclude or include in the advanced search whether a fellowship opportunity is a residency or does not need to take place in a specific location. If not there, then in the drill down menu along with the search results.

Disable "Funding News for [Name]" Heading in Newsletter
Whenever sending out a newsletter, there’s a “Funding News for [name]” heading at the top of the email. It would be great if there could be an option to create a more specific title (or get rid of the heading entirely). If these newsletters are being sent and forwarded to various groups, the reference to one person's name is misleading (even if the heading and custom message is personalized).

Role vs Title in Profiles
Add an optional text field for Title in addition to the required Role field. Currently in Gallery, I designate which profiles to include by Role. Many faculty have Titles they use in the Role field. Example, Dr. Smith could be a Professor (Role) and Associate Vice Chancellor for Research (Title). I want both to appear in their profile to help ensure I am capturing all faculty by role.

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.

Delineate between low, medium and high value 'unspecified' values.
If the value of an opportunity is below say $9,999, between $10K-$49,999 or >$50k in a currency they could be grouped, so that we can filter out low value unspecified opportunities, but not miss the high value ones.
For many researchers their search contains a high number of unspecified value opportunities, and to manually go through all of these to see if they are of high enough value to be of interest for Mid and Established researchers is off-putting for researchers.
If there was a filter by value group, they could only include ones of high value, and filter out…

Please make the Notes field expandable so that more of note can be viewed.
The scrolling function for the small amount of visible text is extremely sensitive which makes editing in a long note very difficult.

Newsletters
It would be great if Newsletters had increased customization options. For example, a great function would be to customize the curated opps content. I'd like to remove/move curated opps from outgoing Newsletters. For example, I have worked on curating a set of funding opps with various deadlines. When I add the curated list to the Newsletter, I don't have the ability to remove opps from displaying on the Newsletter - say that I only want to show opps with deadlines in Q2 for a Spring Newsletter, so that I'm only displaying a handful of results rather than the entire list.…

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?

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.
