I added some extra questions to my project and noticed that now there are two projects under the same name.

Interesting! I will test this myself on my computer and get back to you what happens. I will also bring this up to the computer guys when we get back to work, but it is a three day weekend here in the US! -Sean at PhotosynQ

Hey Kaija! I myself went in to an old project and added a new question, and it functioned as I would expect and did not create a new project. I will continue to look into what might have caused this for you!

Now I have 3 projects with different amount of questions under the same name. How can I get rid of those projects I don't use? I have to open all of them every time before the measurements and check which one has the right set of questions. Could I even change the name somehow? What is the right way to make changes to a project after saving it, or is it possible?

Kaija, you cannot delete projects on the PhotosynQ platform, but you can edit them. To edit a project, so to that projects homepage, if you are the administrator of the project you will see dropdown menu marked options in the upper left corner, above the project menu (which includes: about, view data, results, etc). If the goal is to change the name, select Description from the dropdown menu. From this page you can change the project title. When you have completed your changes select Save and close from the bottom of the page.

Later, if you want to re-use this project instead of creating another new project, you can also change the project questions, measurement protocols, etc.

Hi! I can't find that kind of homepage at all. There is only desktop menu including: about, protocols, results and discussion in the right panel of the view. Should it appear in desktop or android phone view or in both? Maybe I'll send a picture of the homepage. Earlier I tried to attach pictures under this text box but you hadn't received them at all. I'll send them by e-mail.

Kaija, Sorry for the confusion. At www.photosynq.org (not on the desktop or android app) each of your projects will have a homepage. The options menu is available there. All project creation, editing, and data viewing is done on the website and not on the apps.

Thank you. I didn't understand that you can also work with the projects on the website. My computer is very slow and I probably haven't been waiting long enough to open the discover option there.
