# Change the project name

## Overview: change the project name

Renaming a project in Project Settings updates the display name used across CxPlanner, which is used when naming conventions, corrections, or client references require a new title.

For status, logo, or other project data, see [Edit the project settings](https://help.cxplanner.com/en-us/article/edit-the-project-settings-1ky3yca/).

* Your role must be **Manager** or **Admin**.
* You can find the menu at **Project Settings** - **Project Data** - **Project Name**.
* This changes the name in the dashboard, project selector, reports, PDFs, emails, and system logs.

|| Only users with the project role **Manager** or **Admin** can change the project name.

CxPlanner does not notify other users when the name changes. Tell your team if they need to know.

## How to change the project name

1. In the sidebar, click **Project Settings**.
2. Open the **Project Data** module.
3. Find the **Project Name** field and click the **pencil icon** next to the current name.
4. Enter the new name and press **Enter**, or click outside the field to save.

## Results: renamed project

* The project name updates immediately across CxPlanner
* The new name appears in the dashboard overview, project selector, reports and PDFs, emails, and logs
