How do I get started with ProofHub?

Getting started with ProofHub is easy. Simply – add people, add projects, and personalize your ProofHub account. Here’s the step-by-step guide.

I am not able to add projects/people.

Please check with your account owner whether he/she has given you access to the same or not.

I am not receiving email notifications.

Please check your email preferences from “My Preferences” and see whether you have activated email notifications for your account or not. Don’t forget to check your spam folder and the email account settings to ensure email delivery.

I am receiving email notifications for the tasks I am not assigned for.

If you are receiving email notifications for a task that you are not assigned, then you must be the creator of that task, because usually, the creator of the task receives email notifications for it in case any other user is not assigned to it. Also, if you are assigned to the task list you’ll be notified about all the activities on the task.

Can I restrict the access of users in projects?

Yes, you can restrict users to their specific projects only. There are three predefined roles in ProofHub: Owner, Admin, and Normal user. Owner and Admin can see all the projects available in your account, whereas a normal user can only see those projects that are assigned to him/her. So, by assigning users different roles you can limit which projects they can see in their accounts.

Do you have the option to create custom roles in ProofHub?

Yes, custom roles are available in ProofHub. To know more about how to create a custom role, you can read about it here

Where can I see the tasks or tasks that are assigned to me only?

ProofHub’s “Me view” solves your purpose as you can see all your overdue tasks and tasks that you need to work on today, tomorrow, this week, next week, etc. across all projects.

Which file formats are supported in ProofHub for file proofing?

ProofHub supports PDF, JPG, PNG, GIF, and BMP file formats for proofing.

Can projects be archived? Do they count against the project number limit?

Yes, the owner and admin can archive projects at any time. The archived projects don’t count against your project number limit, but the files stored in them do count against the storage limit.

What is the difference between an event and a milestone?

A milestone is a goal or marker you aspire to complete for a set of tasks. A milestone can be linked to a task list, and you can follow the progress of that milestone as you accomplish things on your task list. A project milestone is a way to track how far the project has progressed. Because project milestones are the most visible evidence of project progress, milestone planning is an essential aspect of project planning. An event is not linked to a task but rather to your calendar. Seminars, meetings, special events, and other events are examples.

Can I associate a milestone with any task list?

Yes, you can. To associate a milestone with a task list, all you need to do is select the checkbox “Associate a milestone” and choose a milestone from the dropdown while creating a task list.
