[Project Settings](https://knowledge.spark.re/project-settings?hsLang=en) # General Project Settings ### Getting Started - **Who can do this:** Users with the Manager, Conveyancing, or Administrator role permission. ### Editing Project Settings To edit these settings, go to *Menu → Settings*. In the **Project Settings** section, click **Edit**. | **Field** | **Description** | | --- | --- | | **Project Name** | The name of your project as it appears throughout Spark. | | **Currency** | The default currency used for pricing and other figures across your project. | | **Default Time Zone** | The time zone applied by default throughout your project. | | **Default Area Unit** | The unit used to measure inventory area throughout your project (for example, square feet or square metres). | | **Project Type** | The kind of project this is: High Rise - Concrete, Low Rise - Concrete, High Rise - Wood Frame, Low Rise - Wood Frame, Master Plan Community, Townhomes, or Single Family Homes. | | **Default Transaction Type** | Whether the project is set up for Lease or Sale. | | **Sales Stage** | Where the project currently sits in its sales process: Launch, Tempo, Sold Out, or Complete. | | **Start Date** | Your project's start date. |   **Note:** The fields above are usually set up by the Spark team as part of your initial project setup. You can adjust them here if needed. ### Setting Your Project Theme Colours Your project has a theme made up of a main colour and any number of additional brand colours. The main colour appears as a tint across the top of your project dashboard, whether or not you've also added a background image. All of your theme colours, main and additional, are also available as a ready-made palette when building templates in Spark's new email builder (currently in beta), so your emails stay on-brand without hunting for hex codes each time you make a template. To add a colour to your theme, enter its hex code or use the colour picker, then click **Add Colour**. To remove a colour, click the trash can icon next to it. ### Adding a Dashboard Background Image You can add a background image that displays on your project's main dashboard. Drag and drop a file into the file selector, or click **Select File** to browse your computer. When you've made your changes, click **Update** to save them.   **Questions?** Contact us at [support@spark.re](mailto:support@spark.re). - [Contacts](https://knowledge.spark.re/contacts?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Contact Management](https://knowledge.spark.re/contacts?hsLang=en#contact-management) - [Interactions](https://knowledge.spark.re/contacts?hsLang=en#interactions) - [Groups](https://knowledge.spark.re/contacts?hsLang=en#groups) - [Inventory](https://knowledge.spark.re/inventory?hsLang=en) - [Contracts](https://knowledge.spark.re/contracts?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Disclosures & Amendments](https://knowledge.spark.re/contracts?hsLang=en#disclosures-amendments) - [Contract Management](https://knowledge.spark.re/contracts?hsLang=en#contract-management) - [Deposits](https://knowledge.spark.re/contracts?hsLang=en#deposits) - [Files](https://knowledge.spark.re/contracts?hsLang=en#files) - [Commissions](https://knowledge.spark.re/contracts?hsLang=en#commissions) - [Conveyancing](https://knowledge.spark.re/conveyancing?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Deposits](https://knowledge.spark.re/conveyancing?hsLang=en#deposits) - [Commissions](https://knowledge.spark.re/conveyancing?hsLang=en#commissions) - [Emails](https://knowledge.spark.re/emails?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Email Templates](https://knowledge.spark.re/emails?hsLang=en#email-templates) - [Email Campaigns](https://knowledge.spark.re/emails?hsLang=en#email-campaigns) - [Contract Emails](https://knowledge.spark.re/emails?hsLang=en#contract-emails) - [Email Sync](https://knowledge.spark.re/emails?hsLang=en#email-sync) - [RSVP](https://knowledge.spark.re/rsvp?hsLang=en) - [Calendar & Events](https://knowledge.spark.re/calendar-events?hsLang=en) - [Parking & Storage](https://knowledge.spark.re/parking-storage?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Parking](https://knowledge.spark.re/parking-storage?hsLang=en#parking) - [Storage](https://knowledge.spark.re/parking-storage?hsLang=en#storage) - [Files](https://knowledge.spark.re/files?hsLang=en) - [Forms](https://knowledge.spark.re/forms?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Registration Forms](https://knowledge.spark.re/forms?hsLang=en#registration-forms) - [Project Questions (Q&A)](https://knowledge.spark.re/forms?hsLang=en#project-questions-qa) - [Request Forms](https://knowledge.spark.re/forms?hsLang=en#request-forms) - [Project Settings](https://knowledge.spark.re/project-settings?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Team](https://knowledge.spark.re/project-settings?hsLang=en#team) - [API](https://knowledge.spark.re/project-settings?hsLang=en#api) - [Contacts](https://knowledge.spark.re/project-settings?hsLang=en#contacts) - [Inventory](https://knowledge.spark.re/project-settings?hsLang=en#inventory) - [Contracts](https://knowledge.spark.re/project-settings?hsLang=en#contracts) - [Conveyancing](https://knowledge.spark.re/project-settings?hsLang=en#conveyancing) - [Communications](https://knowledge.spark.re/project-settings?hsLang=en#communications) - [Analytics](https://knowledge.spark.re/analytics?hsLang=en) - [Integrations](https://knowledge.spark.re/integrations?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Calls & Messages](https://knowledge.spark.re/integrations?hsLang=en#calls-messages) - [Email](https://knowledge.spark.re/integrations?hsLang=en#email) - [Juniper by Spark](https://knowledge.spark.re/juniper-by-spark?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Catalog](https://knowledge.spark.re/juniper-by-spark?hsLang=en#catalog) - [Home Inspection App](https://knowledge.spark.re/juniper-by-spark?hsLang=en#home-inspection-app) - [Integrations](https://knowledge.spark.re/juniper-by-spark?hsLang=en#integrations) - [Users](https://knowledge.spark.re/juniper-by-spark?hsLang=en#users) - [Service Requests](https://knowledge.spark.re/juniper-by-spark?hsLang=en#service-requests) - [Company Settings](https://knowledge.spark.re/company-settings?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Contacts](https://knowledge.spark.re/company-settings?hsLang=en#contacts) - [Brokerages](https://knowledge.spark.re/company-settings?hsLang=en#brokerages) - [Communications](https://knowledge.spark.re/company-settings?hsLang=en#communications) - [Webinars](https://knowledge.spark.re/webinars?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Spark Lunch & Learns](https://knowledge.spark.re/webinars?hsLang=en#spark-lunch-learns) - [Product Webinars](https://knowledge.spark.re/webinars?hsLang=en#product-webinars) - [General](https://knowledge.spark.re/general?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Account Settings](https://knowledge.spark.re/general?hsLang=en#account-settings) - [Beta](https://knowledge.spark.re/beta?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Contact Page](https://knowledge.spark.re/beta?hsLang=en#contact-page) [![\_Mark + Logotype](https://knowledge.spark.re/hs-fs/hubfs/_Mark%20+%20Logotype.png?width=150&height=48&name=_Mark%20+%20Logotype.png "_Mark + Logotype")](https://www.spark.re) [Still need help?
