In Studio.Design, you create, publish, and manage websites through projects.
Each project can publish only one website.
You can manage multiple projects with a single account, and plans are subscribed to on a per-project basis.
This article explains how these relate to each other and how to use the management screens. We'll also introduce workspaces, which let you manage multiple projects together.
For how to use the project list, see Creating and managing projects. For how to use the management screens, see Using the dashboard.
What is a Studio.Design project?
A project is the core concept behind building sites in Studio.Design. It's the space where you create, publish, and manage a website.
Each project can create and publish only one website.
You can create and manage multiple projects with a single account.
Plans and pricing
You subscribe to a pricing plan for each project.
Available features—such as the number of pages you can publish and storage capacity—vary by plan. For details on plan types, features, and pricing, see How to choose a project plan.
Members and roles
You can invite multiple accounts to join a single project as members.
Each member is assigned a role that determines what they can do within the project.
Role | Main permissions |
Owner | Manages the entire project. Can perform all actions. |
Billing Owner | Has the same permissions as an Owner, plus the ability to view and update billing information and manage payments. |
Editor | Can edit in the design editor and Studio CMS. Cannot change plans or manage billing information. |
For more details and how to set roles, see Managing roles for project members.
For example, you can subscribe to different plans for each project and invite different members, as shown below.
The two management screens for a project
Each project has two management screens—the design editor and the dashboard—each used for different tasks.
Screen | What it manages |
Design editor | Editing the site design |
Dashboard | Content management, analytics, plan and member management, and various settings |
To learn about each screen and how to open it, see the articles below.
Managing multiple projects together
If you want to manage multiple projects and accounts in one place, use the workspace feature. We recommend using it once you start working with several projects.
Use case | Details |
Organizing projects | Separate projects into workspaces to keep internal, external, or client work from getting mixed up. |
Centralized billing | Organize billing and payment info for multiple sites at the workspace level. |
Account management | Invite, remove, and set permissions for accounts across an entire workspace. |
