⏸ Pausing projects or goals

Sometimes projects or goals may need to be paused for a short while due to a dependency or other priorities. You can easily pause a project or goal by selecting the paused status when doing an update. We recommend adding some commentary on why the project was paused and when you expect to it to resume.

What happens when I pause a project or goal?

  • Project and goal followers will not receive updates.

  • We will no longer send you regular reminders to do your updates.

How do I unpause a project or goal?

Simply go back to the project or goal and post an update, when you do you can change the status back to on track / off track etc.. In doing so, project followers will automatically resume receiving their updates.

📦 Archiving projects or goals

If you've finished a project or goal or the work is no longer relevant, we recommend archiving it.

What happens when I archive a project or a goal?

  • A banner will appear on top of the project and goal to highlight that it's archived

  • It will no longer appear in the default search results, to find it again, users will have to also include searching archived content

  • It will still be accessible to anyone who can navigate to it

  • No more reminders are sent for the project or goal.
