# Share and publish

> Share a 00 Simulator design as a link: who can see it, guest links versus drafts, publishing to the Gallery, editing, deleting and your public profile.

Source: https://simulator.00aud.io/docs/guides/sharing

**Share** turns the enclosures you pick into a link anyone can open in 00 Simulator. Read who can see it before you press it: a link made as a guest is public straight away and listed in the **Gallery**, while signed in you get a private draft first.

_Figure: Two ways to share. As a guest: Share, then Create share link, and the link is public at once and listed in the Gallery. Signed in: Share, then Create draft, a draft only you can open, then Publish design, and the link is public, in the Gallery and on your profile._

Guest links go public in one step. Signed in, the link stays a private draft until you publish it.

- As a guest: **Share** → **Create share link** → public at once, and listed in the Gallery. You cannot edit, hide or delete it later.
- Signed in: **Share** → **Create draft** → a draft only you can open → **Publish design** → public, in the Gallery and on your profile. Manage it any time under **Shared links**.

## Share as a guest

> **Guest links are public and permanent** A link made without an account is published at once and listed in the **Gallery**, where anyone can find it. Nobody owns it, so it cannot be edited, taken out of the **Gallery** or deleted later. Sign in first if you might want to.

1. **Open the dialog.** Press **Share** in the header. **Share configuration** lists every enclosure in the project, all ticked.
2. **Choose what goes.** Untick the enclosures to leave out. **Name** suggests a title from the enclosures, and **Notes** takes a description, with Markdown.
3. **Make the link.** **Create share link** publishes it. **Share link created** shows the address, and **Copy link** puts it on your clipboard.

## Sign in, draft, then publish

Signed in, a share starts as a draft that only you can open: anyone else who tries the address is told it was not found. Publish it when it reads the way you want.

1. **Make a draft.** Press **Share**, untick what to leave out, check the **Name**, and press **Create draft**. The draft opens in a new tab, with the simulator still open in this one.
2. **Write it up.** The draft opens on its panel, marked **Draft · not yet published**. Give it a title, write **Design notes** (Markdown works) and, under **Links**, **Add link** for up to 12: discussion threads, GitHub, CAD files, cut lists, photos, videos or websites.
3. **Set the scene.** Collapse the panel to arrange the tiles, change the power or environment, and add notes to the graphs. The link keeps them as they are when you save.
4. **Save or publish.** **Save draft** keeps it private. **Publish design** makes it public and lists it in the **Gallery**; **Design published** gives you the link to copy.

Publishing gives the address the title’s words. The draft’s old address keeps working and leads to the same design.

## What a link carries

- The enclosures you ticked, with their drivers and passive radiators. Drivers you created go too, with every T/S value and their notes, so anyone who opens the link can use them.
- Every measured trace in the workspace. A trace linked to an enclosure you left out still goes, unlinked.
- Every note on the graphs, the tiles and their layout, and the environment: radiation space and listening distance.
- The **Name** and, for guests, the **Notes**; for drafts, the title, **Design notes** and **Links** you add later.

> **Check before you share** Measurements and graph notes go with every link, even ones about enclosures you left out. Delete any you would rather keep private before you share. [Measured traces and notes](https://simulator.00aud.io/docs/guides/measurements) shows where they are.

A link is a snapshot. Changes you make in your workspace afterwards do not reach it: share again for a link with the new design.

## Who can see it

|  | Guest link | Draft | Published |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Anyone with the address | Yes | No, only you | Yes |
| The **Gallery** | Yes, for good | No | Yes, until you hide it |
| Your public profile | No profile | No | Yes, until you hide it |
| Search engines | Can index it | No | Can index it |
| Edit, hide or delete later | No | Yes | Yes |

- The **Gallery** shows your account’s name and picture with each design you publish. Guest links show as a guest designer.
- The design’s own page names you by your username when your profile is public and has one, and by your account name otherwise. Your picture and a link to your profile appear only when your profile is public.
- The title you publish is what people see in the **Gallery**, in search results and in link previews.
- Views count other people opening a published link. Your own visits and drafts are not counted.

## Change a published design

- Open the link while signed in and press **Edit design** (**Edit** on the collapsed bar). Change the title, **Design notes**, **Links**, the tiles, the power, the environment or the graph notes, then **Save changes**.
- Everyone with the link sees the new version as soon as you save, at the same address.
- The enclosures themselves are fixed on the share page. To share a changed design, change it in your workspace and share it again.
- A draft you left shows **Resume** on its bar instead.

## Manage your links

**Shared links**, in the account menu under your avatar, lists your **Drafts** and **Published** designs with their views, and has a search. **Edit** opens a draft, **Open** a published design. **More actions** (⋯) on each:

| Action | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| **Copy link** | Copies a published design’s address. |
| **Hide from gallery** / **Show in gallery** | Takes it out of the **Gallery** or puts it back. The link still works. |
| **Hide from profile** / **Show on profile** | The same for your public profile. |
| **Delete…** | After you confirm, anyone who opens the link sees **Share link deleted**. Drafts can be deleted too. |

## Open a shared design

A shared link opens the design in the simulator with a bar at the top: who shared it, the title, **Notes** when there are any, **Files** and **Import**. Click the name on the bar for the full panel: notes, links, the enclosures, the notes on the graphs and any measurements.

- You can change the power, the environment and the tiles to explore it. The design itself is fixed, and nothing you do changes the original.
- **Files** (**Export files** in the panel) downloads it: **Project file** (`.00sim`), **WinISD project** (`.wpr`) or **Driver records** (`.wdr`). [Import and export](https://simulator.00aud.io/docs/guides/import-export) covers each.
- Signed in, **Import to my workspaces** opens **Import shared workspace**: name it under **Workspace name** and press **Import** for a new workspace of your own.
- As a guest, **Import to my simulator** loads it into this browser’s guest project. If that already holds a design, **Replace your browser draft?** asks first: **Replace browser draft** removes the current guest project, with the drivers and passive radiators you made in it, from this device.

## Your public profile

Your account comes with a profile page, and it is public unless you switch it off. After you sign in, **Set up your profile** asks for a picture, a **Name** and a **Username**; the page’s address is `/u/` followed by the username. **Skip for now** leaves it for later.

- It shows your name, picture and username, a bio and social profiles if you add them, when you joined, your published designs with their views, badges, and a graph of the days you used the simulator.
- Open it with **View public profile** in the account menu. On your own profile, a button leads to **Shared links**.
- Change it under **Account**: the **Public profile** switch (**Public** or **Private**), **Handle**, **Bio** and **Social profiles**, then **Save public profile**. **Public shares**, further down, has a switch per link: **On profile** or **Hidden**.
- A private profile has no page, but the **Gallery** still shows your account’s name and picture with each design you publish, and the design’s page shows your name.

## Ask your AI

**Ask your AI**

Your assistant can read and simulate your workspace through the 00 Simulator connector. Paste what it writes into **Design notes**; sharing and publishing stay with you.

> Using 00 Simulator, read my open workspace and simulate each enclosure at its saved power. Write a short design note for sharing it: the driver, box and tuning of each, its F3, and where excursion or port air speed runs out first.
