# Edit Applications, Profiles, and Sections Without Using the Builder

## Edit applications, profiles, and sections directly from the user interface without accessing the Application and Profile Builder, allowing you to quickly add, move, or update elements as needed.

For demonstration purposes, this article uses candidates as an example; however, the same steps apply to clients.

Let’s get started 🚀

### **Manage Fields in Section**

Edit, duplicate, or add fields directly within a section from the candidate profile without accessing the builder.

**Step 1**: Log in to your agent dashboard and click **Candidates** in the navigation bar.

**Step 2**: Click any candidate from the list.

**Step 3**: Click the **Profile** tab to go to the candidate profile.

**Step 4**: Click the **pencil** icon next to any section name.

**Step 5**: Click on the **pencil **icon next to any field to edit it.

**Step 6**: Edit the field as required, and you can also duplicate the field as needed by clicking the **Duplicate** button.

**Step 7**: Click the **Save** button after making the required edits to apply those changes.

**Step 8**: You can also click the “+” icon next to any field to insert a new field as needed.

### **Access the Section and Edit Layout**

Adjust the layout of fields within a section to control how they are displayed in the profile.

**Step 1**: Click the **Gear** icon as shown in the screenshot below.

**Step 2**: Click the **Layout (Form Design View) **button.

**Step 3**: Select the **number of items per row** button, then click each field to apply that setting.

For example, click the **“1 item per row”** button, then click a field or question to make it occupy the full row.

The selected field will be updated to full one row.

**Step 4**: After making all the required changes, click the **Save** button to proceed.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WHEN YOU MAKE AN EDIT TO AN **UNDERLYING** SECTION OR FIELD FROM ONE PROFILE, IT WILL CHANGE FOR **ALL** PROFILES, NOT JUST THE ONE YOU ARE VIEWING!   
You can edit the actual information in a question/field person by person, of course, but editing the actual question changes it **globally**!
