@RebeccaCS,

Had you considered flipping the script a bit? I describe the approach here and the post linked within:

> That sounds good, @Jeremy21. My suggestion would be to consider an “evergreen” project for the sprint, along the lines of my Forum Leader Tip here: Just substitute sprints for the marketing requests example. Also, any reason you’ve posted this only for Ambassadors? I can move it for you to #Tips and Tricks so hundreds of thousands more than see it if you’d like! Thanks, Larry

I think this is a better long-term strategy, and doesn’t require the functionality you requested that @Richard_Sather explained isn’t available anyway.

Thanks for considering,

Larry
