      Wiki Widget

      View useful information on your project with the Wiki Widget.

      The 'Wiki' widget provides a detailed HTML text area for sharing valuable information with project users. There are two types of 'Wiki' widgets available: 'Project Wiki' and 'Wiki'. While we'll focus on 'Project Wiki' for our examples, the steps for adding and editing both types of widgets remain the same.

      Project Wiki

      If you are a project owner, you are able to add a ‘Project Wiki’ widget that displays the project’s description and provides pertinent project information to the other users. You can only have one ‘Project Wiki’ widget on the dashboard at a time.

      Another option available is the Wiki widget, which can be added by any user to their Project Dashboard. This widget can be used multiple times and is convenient for users to keep notes and other project-related information. The content added to this Wiki widget is only visible on the creator's dashboard, unless specifically toggled to be saved to the project preferences.

      Adding a ‘Wiki’ Widget

      1.   From your Project Dashboard, click the ‘ Add Widget’ button.
