Managing your Project Timeline

Your Timeline is the best place to showcase your project milestones. It's where community members will go to see what's coming up next and what's already happened.

> Important: editing the Timeline won't send out a notification, so don't forget post an Update if you want to let your followers know about an upcoming event.  

Here's how to add a new Timeline event:

Step 1. Head to your Project Editor and jump down to the "Timeline" section

Step 2. Hit "Add new event"

Step 3. Enter the event name, brief description, and date

> Note: Use the Display Date/Time differently field to display a more general date publicly, e.g. "Fall 2017" or "November 2017". If you choose this option, be sure to choose an appropriate start date and time so our system knows where to plot this event on the Timeline. 

Step 4. Choose an icon to make this event stand out

Step 5. (Optional) Click "Add file" to attach any relevant documents, e.g. a meeting agenda. This will also be added automatically to your main Info & Plans section.

Step 6. Hit "Save event"
