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](https://support.estage.com/project-settings-roles). 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](https://support.estage.com/project-settings-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](https://support.estage.com/platform-mobile-apps) adds **App Deploy** (store keys and build history), a
  [Desktop app](https://support.estage.com/platform-desktop-apps) adds **Desktop app** (platforms, signing certificate,
  installers), and a [Web app](https://support.estage.com/platform-web-apps) adds **Server**.
