01 Introduction
In this lesson, we will learn about the options available to us in the Overview Tab. This tab is the first of three tabs in the Project Settings Menu:
(1) Overview

(3) Site Elements.
This lesson includes learning how to rename a project, setting up the availability of a survey in advance, saving projects to folders, and updating the alignment of a survey.
02 The Overview Tab
We can use the Overview Tab to configure the following settings:
- Project Name Field - allows us to change the name of a project.
- Site URL Field - allows us to set a custom URL.
- Description Field - provides an opportunity to add a text description about the survey only visible to project owners.
- Publish - the settings button gives you the benefit of publishing a survey immediately or at a scheduled time with an expired message or redirected URL option for survey takers.
- Folders - allows you to save your surveys in a new or existing folder.
- Site Orientation - changes the alignment of the survey.
