Project Settings overview
A tour of every tab in your Genesis project settings and what each one controls.
Every Genesis project has a Settings panel where you manage everything that isn't a page or section — your site's identity, integrations, team, and AI preferences.
Note
What you can open here depends on your role. The owner sees everything; an invited member sees the tabs their role allows, and controls their role can't use are disabled with the reason shown on them.

A few things worth knowing
- Most changes save inline. You'll see a "Saved" pill or a floating Save bar when there are unsaved changes — no separate confirmation screen.
- Changes reach your preview instantly. Integrations and code changes appear in the live preview right away, and on your published site the next time you publish.
- Some tabs depend on others. For example, you must fill in Business Details before you can connect a payment gateway.
- Some tabs only appear for the app you're in. In Cloud & Deploy, a Mobile app adds App Deploy (store keys and build history), a Desktop app adds Desktop app (platforms, signing certificate, installers), and a Web app adds Server.
