Organizations may want to extend a Project deadline for a certain group of submitters while letting the initial deadline expire as planned for others.
Follow these steps to switch your Project form to a Live and Hidden status. This will prevent any unwanted applicants from finding your call on your public-facing Submittable page.
Navigate to the Project for which you'd like to extend the deadline.
Under the General Settings tab, change the Expires On date to the new deadline date and toggle the Hidden setting on. This will make your Project hidden from the public.
Send the Direct Link to your newly hidden Project to your selected group.
Other Considerations
If the Project remains Live, submitters can still see a preview of their draft form in their accounts after the deadline has passed.
The Project must remain Live for the applicant to retain access to their draft. If the setting is turned off, the draft is removed from the applicant's view until it is turned back on.
Projects can be archived but left Live.
