Overview
This article explains how to manage the visibility settings of your projects in your Contently portfolio. It covers how to use the "View as" setting and how to edit the visibility for each project individually.
Information
Your portfolio is the first impression clients and the Creative Marketplace team will have of you and your work, so we highly recommend taking the time to fill out all sections thoroughly.
Your portfolio is reviewed only after you submit it through the Portfolio Submission Form described in Portfolio Visibility: Private vs Public, and it is reviewed as it is at the time of the review. Take the time to fill out as much of your portfolio as you can before you submit it.
We want you to get approved and assigned work with our clients as much as you do! And there are several things you can do with your portfolio to increase your chances of getting noticed. Below is a guide to help you set up your portfolio the right way right from the start.
Pro tip: as you make your way through the below steps of how to set up your portfolio, please check out this article for a detailed guide explaining the what and why behind each item.

Make your clips “Contently only” (these projects will not be viewable on your public portfolio, but will appear on your portfolio if the user is signed in as a Contently internal user or Contently client). This applies only while your portfolio is public. While your portfolio is private, only you can see it, while signed in to your own account; no one else can, including other people signed in to Contently:
