Producer Dashboard

Featured Projects

Featured Projects lets you spotlight the projects that matter most to you right now. Instead of hunting through your entire library, you can pin key projects to your dashboard so they’re visible every time you open Producer Dashboard.

This section lives at the top of your dashboard home page, giving you immediate access to your priority work without navigating away.

Section titled “What Are Featured Projects?”

Featured Projects are simply your pinned or recently active projects displayed prominently on the dashboard. Think of it as your personal command center — the projects you need to check on daily or keep top of mind during a production sprint.

Each featured project card shows you:

  • Project artwork or icon — visual identification at a glance
  • Project name — so you always know which project you’re looking at
  • Track count — how many tracks belong to this project
  • Recent activity indicator — a badge showing how many actions happened in the past week
  • Last updated time — when the project was last modified

The dashboard automatically surfaces your five most recently active projects based on your work across tracks, comments, and other activity. This means your featured section stays relevant without manual effort.

Section titled “How Projects Get Featured”

Your dashboard uses smart logic to determine which projects appear. You don’t have to manually add every project — the system helps surface what’s important.

Automatic Surfacing

Section titled “Automatic Surfacing”

Projects appear in Featured based on recent activity across your entire workspace. When you:

  • Upload a new track to a project
  • Leave a comment on a track
  • Update a track’s stage or metadata
  • Invite a collaborator
  • Set or change a due date

…that project moves higher in the featured list. This keeps your dashboard aligned with where you’re actually spending your time.

Manual Pinning

Section titled “Manual Pinning”

While automatic surfacing handles most cases, you might want to pin a project you’re not actively working on yet but need to remember. Look for a pin icon on project cards when you hover over them. Clicking this pins the project to the top of your featured list, keeping it visible even during quiet periods.

Viewing Project Details

Section titled “Viewing Project Details”

Clicking any featured project card opens a focused view of that project. From there you can:

  • See all tracks within the project
  • View collaborator activity
  • Check upcoming deadlines
  • Access project settings

The navigation is instant — no page reloads, just a smooth transition to the project workspace.

Quick Actions on Hover

Section titled “Quick Actions on Hover”

When you hover over a featured project card, additional controls appear:

  • Preview icon — peek at recent tracks without fully navigating
  • Pin/Unpin icon — toggle the pinned state
  • More menu — access project options like renaming or archiving

These controls keep common actions within reach without cluttering the interface when you’re just browsing.

Sorting and Filtering

Section titled “Sorting and Filtering”

If you have multiple projects, the Featured Projects section adapts to show what matters most. You can sort by:

  • Most recent activity — default view, sorted by last action timestamp
  • Most tracks — projects with the largest track count bubble up
  • Recently updated — projects modified most recently

Switch between these views using the sort controls above the featured section. Your preference is remembered for future sessions.

Connecting to the Kanban Board

Section titled “Connecting to the Kanban Board”

Featured Projects work hand-in-hand with the mini Kanban board on your dashboard. When you select a project from the featured section, the Kanban board automatically filters to show only tracks from that project.

This integration helps you:

  • Focus on one project’s workflow at a time
  • Quickly assess stage distribution across a project’s tracks
  • Drag tracks through stages without leaving the dashboard

Toggle between “All Projects” and “Selected Project” views in the Kanban header to switch contexts instantly.
