# Admin Edit Mode

## Edit mode for admin in the profile dropdown

| **What is Admin Edit Mode?** |
| --- |
| Admin Edit Mode is a feature that allows a Community Administrator or Custom Administrator to edit images, text, descriptions, and other content directly from the Community Landing Page, Home Page, and Campaign Page, without navigating to individual settings pages. |

Admin Edit Mode brings inline editing to the Community Landing Page, Home Page, and Campaign Page. Editing content directly in its original context reduces the number of clicks and actions needed to make a change, and helps ensure updates are made accurately.

![team page edit copy](https://help.ideascale.com/hs-fs/hubfs/team%20page%20edit%20copy.jpg?width=670&height=473&name=team%20page%20edit%20copy.jpg)

While in Admin Edit Mode, a Hide Moderators or Show Moderators option appears beside the Campaign Moderators and Community Moderators sections. See Exceptions below for a scope limit on this option. An Administrator can still see the moderators in both sections even when hidden; standard Members see the Campaign Moderators and Community Moderators sections with the list hidden.

Note: Any Edits made using the Edit Mode will also be saved in the respective Campaign Settings.
