Today’s Release: New Projects Dashboard

Today we’re excited to announce the first step in some major new enhancements to Geni Projects. Projects were first introduced over a year ago as a way for users to organize and work together on groups of related profiles. We think you are all going to love our new changes to Projects. Check out the enhancements below!

A New Look

We’ve given our Projects page a makeover. Featured Projects are displayed right at the top of the page so you can easily discover new interesting projects to join. Hover over the photo to see the project’s name and click the photo to visit the project.

All of the projects you follow can be found under the “My Projects” tab. To find new genealogy projects to join, click on “All Projects.” We added a Recent Activity feed to the right of the page so you can stay up-to-date with the projects you follow and see what your collaborators are working on.

Pictures!

By popular demand, pictures can now be added to projects. Adding an image to a project is easy:

1. Upload the photo (if you haven’t already)
2. Click “Edit” next to the Project field under the image
3. Select the desired project

Now the photo will appear on the project’s page!

These updates are just the first step in improving Projects for Geni users. Stay tuned for more improvements coming soon.
