Make the Dot allows you to share a read-only version of your board publicly so that anyone with the link can view your content, even if they don’t have a Make the Dot account.

Enable public read-only access

  1. Click Share at the top right of the editor and then on the Share Publicly tab.

  2. Toggle Create shared link on. The board URL link is automatically copied to the clipboard, use Ctrl / Command + V to paste the link and share it with your collaborator.

  3. The publish to community tick box will be automatically checked. This permits us to showcase your project/portfolio, get featured on our social media, and potentially be introduced to freelancing jobs.

  4. Once someone has received your link they will see a read-only board that looks similar to this.

Note that people who click the link can view the content of your board, but are not able to edit your content or leave any comments. If you would like to allow them to comment or make any other edits, invite them as an editor instead.
