Project Creation Step 2

  1. Step 2 of project creation is an opportunity to further develop your project home page. All fields are optional but every bit helps define your project for yourself, your team, potential collaborators, and potential adopters. The fields include:

  2. Audience. Describe your audience in fewer than 100 characters.

  3. Project needs. Select up to three roles you would like to fill.

  4. Stage. Choose the stage at which you project stands.

  5. Add a link to a video or a cover image. If you do not add a cover, an image will be automatically generated. If you do not add a video link, no video will appear.

  6. If you would like to return to Step 1 and change any of the information entered, click “Back”.

  7. Once you have entered any additional information you choose, click create.

The first thing you will see is a pop up with a link to the user guide and the Help & Questions space where you can seek help at any time. Click continue to dismiss.

How can you add another project administrator to a site? Thanks, TB

You can edit administrators in the “Team” block of the project homepage — any administrator can set/assign other team members as an admin with editing privileges. :slight_smile:
