Brightidea's 'Drafts' feature allows users to save their incomplete submissions as drafts automatically as users enter a submission or by saving the submission form manually.
Getting Started
- To get started, Admins must add the My Idea Drafts widget to an Initiative page where users can easily find their drafts.
- The widget displays all of a user's saved Submission drafts.
- Submission forms are automatically saved after five minutes of inactivity on the Submission form.
- Users that manually select Save Draft on the Submission Form will see a popup confirmation above the title confirming the saved draft:
Drafts widget:
- The widget automatically shows the user's saved drafts.
- The last saved timestamp for each draft is reflected after the title.
- Users can select the delete icon to the left of the title to completely remove the draft from their saved list:
User Home:
- If enabled, User Home will also display users' saved drafts in the Submissions tab.
- Selecting the "X" icon will delete a saved draft.
- Selecting the title or "Edit" will bring the user to the submission form to continue where they left off.
Is there a way to see how many idea drafts are in a particular Webstorm?
Hi Damian,
Unfortunately, there is no reporting or functionality to view saved drafts of other users.
Thank you,
Brightidea Support
I agree with Damian! It would be great as the Administrator to see what's "out there" in terms of drafts that can't be seen by anyone else! I think we have some perfectionists and idea hoarders in our teams! Even if the user activity report could show how many drafts each user currently has saved, it would be a huge help.
Thank you for considering this.
Is it possible to disable the "Save draft" option?
Can the administrator view the list of submissions in Drafts mode?
Hi Katyal,
Administrators cannot view submissions of any other Users. Only the User that created the Draft can see them.
