Project settings

Project settings is where you manage a single project: its name and URL, project type, monitoring, publishing options, sharing toggles, Git connection, domains, knowledge, and skills. This page walks through the settings tab by tab so you know exactly where each option lives. To open it, click the project name in the top bar of the editor and select Settings. From the chat, open the Chat actions menu with the plus button and choose Settings, or press Cmd+. (Mac) or Ctrl+. (Windows/Linux). You can also find any setting by name through the command palette. Your project’s tabs appear in the settings sidebar alongside your workspace and account settings.

​

General tab

The General tab opens by default and contains most settings, grouped into sections.

​

Details

• Project name: Rename your project. Lovable names new projects automatically, and the name is visible only inside your workspace, never to visitors of your published app. Renaming only changes the display name, not your project’s URL.
• URL subdomain: Change the subdomain of your published lovable.app address, which is where visitors find your app once you publish.
• Owner: Shows who owns the project, with a link to their profile. See project roles.
• Messages count and AI edits count: Read-only counters showing how much you’ve built in this project.
• Use as a template: Turn your project into a template that others in your workspace can start from. Available on Business and Enterprise plans. See Design templates. On Enterprise workspaces that use design systems, this appears as a Project type selection instead, with Design system as a third option.
• Design system (Enterprise): The design system Lovable builds this project with, so new UI matches your organization’s components and styles. Click Attach design system to pick one, or Manage design system once attached. See Design systems.

​

Project monitoring

• Project monitoring: Have Lovable review your project’s code and recent visitor errors on a daily or weekly schedule, and alert you to important issues in the editor and by email. Off by default, available on Pro plans and above. See Project monitoring.

​

Publishing

• Project category: Categorize what kind of app this is, which helps Lovable and directories present it correctly.
• Hide Lovable badge: Removes the “Edit with Lovable” badge from your published app. Available on Pro plans and above. If your workspace later moves to a plan that doesn’t include this, the badge comes back the next time you publish the project. Sites that are already live stay unchanged until you republish them.
• Visitor analytics: Collect visitor data for your published app, which powers the Analytics view in the editor. On by default. When you turn it off, Lovable stops collecting and the Analytics view shows no new data.
• AI app context: Let Lovable use context from your app’s AI calls to debug and improve its AI features. Secrets are removed from the logs automatically, and logs are kept for 90 days. See AI features.
• Auto-fix security issues: Let Lovable automatically fix low-risk issues found by security scans, so simple findings don’t wait on you. Workspace owners and admins can set a workspace-wide default in Workspace settings → Privacy & security, and when they lock it there, the project setting can’t be changed here.
• Unpublish project: Takes your published app offline. The button is available only while the project is published. See Publish your project.

​

Sharing

• Project access: A shortcut only: the Open share menu button takes you to the Share menu, where you control who can view and edit the project. See Share your project.
• Public remixing: Control whether anyone with your project’s link can create their own copy of it. Off by default. See Remix a project.
• Cross-project sharing: Controls whether your other projects can reference this one as context. Workspace admins can disable this workspace-wide. See Cross-project referencing.

​

Project actions

• Remix project: Duplicate this app in a new project with the Remix button. See Remix a project.
• Move workspace: Move this project to a different workspace you belong to with the Move button. See Move a project to another workspace below.
• Transfer ownership: Make another member of your workspace the project owner. See Transfer project ownership below.

​

Transfer project ownership

Click Transfer ownership and pick the new owner. The new owner must be a full member of the workspace: external collaborators and people with pending invites aren’t eligible. After the transfer, the new owner has full control of the project, and what you can still do depends on your workspace role. If an owner leaves the workspace, their projects transfer automatically to the most senior remaining member. See project roles.

​

Move a project to another workspace

Click Move on the Move workspace row and pick the destination workspace. You can also start a move from the dashboard: open a project card’s menu and select Transfer to workspace, or select several projects to move them together. You can move projects you own, and workspace owners (plus workspace admins on paid plans) can move any project they can access. On Enterprise workspaces, project owners additionally need the Editor project transfers setting turned on. The move dialog includes a Transfer project collaborators checkbox:

• Off (default): people invited directly to the project, and any pending project invites, are removed when the project moves. Access through workspace membership is not affected.
• On: Lovable keeps direct collaborators and pending invites when the destination workspace allows their role and you have permission to grant it there. Some collaborators may still be removed, for example when the destination workspace’s External project collaborators policy doesn’t allow their role.

Two more things change during a move: the project leaves its dashboard folder, and its access setting resets to the destination workspace’s default, so check Project access after the move if the project should stay restricted.

​

Danger zone

• Delete project: Permanently deletes the project. To confirm, you type the project’s name.

​

Git tab

The Git tab is where you connect your project to a GitHub or GitLab repository and manage the connection. The sync is two-way: Lovable pushes every change it makes to the repository, and commits you push to the synced branch flow back into Lovable. That gives you a full copy of your code outside Lovable and lets developers on your team work with their own tools. See Git sync for how the sync works.

​

Domains tab

The Domains tab is where you manage the web addresses of your published app. You can connect a domain you already own, buy a new domain directly through Lovable, and choose a primary domain that all your project’s other addresses redirect to. Custom domains are available on paid plans. See Set up a custom domain.

​

Knowledge tab

Open Settings → Knowledge, under Customization in the settings sidebar, or use the Chat actions menu in the editor. The Knowledge tab holds your project’s instructions and guidelines. Lovable follows them in every request, so use this tab to describe your product, audience, and preferences once instead of repeating them in chat. Anyone with edit access can update project knowledge, and the same tab shows your workspace-wide knowledge. See Knowledge.

​

Skills tab

Open Settings → Skills, also under Customization in the settings sidebar, to manage the reusable instruction sets available in this project, such as a launch checklist or a release notes format. Workspace owners and admins manage which skills exist. See Skills.
