Project

Use Project for Academic, Archival, Partner, and Public projects.

Where Project records appear

Website location	Presentation
Academic current/completed project pages	Project cards filtered by Profiles and EndDate year
Collections → Archival Projects	Project cards filtered by Archival profile
About Us → Partner Projects	Project cards filtered by Partner profile
Public Programs → Public History Projects	Project cards filtered by Public profile
Project detail route	Header, component body, optional external-project button, Related Materials
Related Materials elsewhere	Project card; routing uses the first Profiles value

Archival Project cards example

Projects classified as Archival in Profiles appear in Collections → Archival Projects. Each card uses Image, Title, and CardText. The orange “Project website” button appears when Link is set, with ButtonText or the default label; “Learn more” opens the project detail page. Here Archival determines listing membership, while the Collections route supplies the orange card styling.
