Members

The Members section provides an overview of users associated with a particular project and enables project creators (owners) and administrators to add collaborators (Figure 1).

To add a collaborator, type a username in use the Add member box and click the Image Removed button. Previous collaborators may be selected using the dropdown box drop-down menu.

To add a user you have not collaborated with before, type their exact username (e.g., jsmith) and click the Image Added button to add them. Depending on the collaborator's preference settings, an email notification may be sent to the email address associated with their user account. To delete a collaborator, select theImage RemovedImage Added next to their username (you will be asked for confirmation).
