Editing the tree

Only admins can edit the tree. Members see no edit controls.

Opening the editor

On a wide screen, select Edit Tree at the top of the home page. The same wheel turns into an editor over a draft copy. Nothing changes for anyone until you save. A narrow window cannot edit: you see a message that the editor needs a wider window, and you can widen it or discard your changes.

The bar at the top now reads Editing tree and says No changes yet, then counts your unsaved changes.

What you can change

Select a department, a team or a skill on the tree to open its panel.

• Department: its Name, Description, Colour and Icon; Place on the wheel with Move Earlier and Move Later; Open to show its fan; and Remove.
• Team: its Name; the Department it belongs to, which moves the team to another department; Place in the fan with Move Left and Move Right; and Remove.
• Skill: the Branch it sits on, which moves it to a team in any department.

A department or team can be removed only when it holds no skills. Move its skills out first.

Use Add Department or, when a department is open, Add Branch to create new ones.

Saving

• Undo takes back the last change.
• Save applies your whole draft at once. It is disabled until you have made a change.
• Close leaves the editor. If you have unsaved changes the button reads Discard and asks Discard your changes? before throwing them away.

Skills themselves, such as importing, switching on or off, are managed on the skills page. See Managing skills.
