Share for review

Share your site before it's live

Send a client, or anyone else, a link to your site. They see its latest version, page by page, without signing up, even before you publish it.

1. In your site's editor, open the site menu (your site's name, at the top) and choose Share for review.
2. Choose Make a link.
3. Choose Copy link, then send it however you like.

The link always shows your newest version, so you can keep making changes and send the same link again. Changes you're still making with Shingle show once they're saved.

Turn a link off

Anyone with the link can see your site, so treat it like a key. In Share for review:

• Turn off link stops it working at once.
• Make a new link gives you a new one and turns the old one off.

Review links work in the trial and on the plan, and need your email address confirmed. Members, admins and the owner can make a link; anyone on your team can copy one.

What people with the link see

The page opens your site as visitors will see it, with a menu of its pages. If Shingle needs a moment to get your site ready, the page says so and opens it when it's ready.

They can't change anything, see your other sites, or send your forms.

Comments

People with the link can comment. They click a part of the page, write their comment and give their name, which their browser remembers. On a phone, they tap Comments at the top. They see the comments made through their link, and when you resolve one.

You'll find them in your site's editor, under Comments:

• Ask Shingle puts the comment into the change box, aimed at the part of the page it's about.
• Resolve files it once it's done. Reopen brings it back, and Delete removes a resolved comment for good.

Whoever made the link gets an email when comments arrive, at most once an hour. A new link starts with no comments, so different people never see each other's.
