Troubleshooting
Project doesn't appear in selection
The project may be:

- Part of a team you're not currently viewing
- Archived — unarchive it first
Projects show but look incomplete
Enhance the project's profile display:
- Add a portfolio/cover image
- Write a result blurb
- Add tech stack tags
- Ensure description is filled in
Order keeps resetting
Make sure you:
- Click Save after reordering
- Don't have a sort preference that overrides manual order
- Wait for the save to complete before navigating away
Featured project not displaying correctly
Check that:
- The project has a cover image
- The featured toggle is enabled
- You've saved your profile settings
Next Steps
