How To Edit A Project And Create Project Updates

Written by Theodoros on 09/15/2023

Once a project has saved or submitted, the Project Creator can return to edit it. In addition, once a month he should also add Project Updates to inform his Patrons of his project’s progress.

Edit a Project

1) Log into your Dashboard, and click the MY PROJECTS menu item. This will display all your past and current projects on the Site.

2) Hover your cursor over the project you wish to edit. (In the example below, we will edit “Test Successful Project”.)

Hovering over a project will cause four icons to appear superimposed over the project’s Featured Image.

Next, hover over the leftmost icon of a pencil-on-paper. This makes a tooltip appear with the text, “Edit Project”.

Click the pencil-on-paper icon.
