Projects and banners
A project is one design filled in for many banners, in every size you need.
Create a project#
On the Dashboard press New Project. At the top choose where the template comes from: Catalog (our designs), My templates (yours) or All. Tick the sizes you need and press Use this template.
The project stays a draft until you press Save (or Save & Export): drafts do not appear on the dashboard and do not count towards your plan's project limit. While it is a draft, the top-right button is Cancel — it discards the draft. Drafts left open without saving are cleaned up after a day.
Fields for all banners#
The left panel lists the template's fields under Fill these once. These values apply to every banner of the project — a brand name, a website, a common headline.
- Text fields: type the text; the canvas updates as you type.
- Image fields: Upload a picture (up to 8 MB) or Replace it. On the Basic and Pro plans Remove background cuts the subject out and makes the background transparent.
Banners#
A banner is one version of the design: one product, one offer. In the Banners panel press Add from images and select one or more pictures — each becomes a banner, with the picture in the design's first image field. Select a banner to preview it and to give it its own values; empty fields use the values for all banners.
How many banners a project can hold depends on your plan — see Plans and limits.
Sizes#
The tabs above the canvas switch between the project's sizes. + Size adds another size of the template; removing a size drops its exported files. Fields are shared by all sizes, so you never type a value twice.
Change the template#
Change template in the left panel switches the project to another template. Before switching it shows how your texts and pictures will move to the new template's fields; values with no matching field are listed so nothing disappears unnoticed. Exported files of the old design are cleared.
Saving#
Save
Save stores the project: values, banners and the design. If you try to leave with unsaved changes, PromoRails asks before discarding them.
Save & Export
Saves and renders the PNGs — see Exporting and downloading.
