Full handbook

Before you start#

  • A successfully published card.

Steps#

  1. Use the URL shown for the published card rather than copying your Studio address. Studio is an editing workspace and requires sign-in. Your public card is designed for visitors.

    dhconnect.io is the marketing and dashboard hub. dhconnect.me is the clean-link card runtime. Your referral invitation link has a different purpose from your public card link.

  2. Step 2: Add a useful introduction#

    When sharing in a message, profile, or post, explain why the recipient might want to open the card. For example: 'Here are the options we discussed—choose the one you want to know more about.'

    Use an appropriate audience and respect community rules. Sharing a card does not give permission for unsolicited bulk follow-up.

  3. Step 3: Check the signed-out experience#

    Open the exact link in a private browser window and on a phone. Go through the opening, each Hook answer, and each Close action. Check that images load without your creator session.

    If a destination needs another app, test it on a device with that app where possible. A desktop browser may behave differently from a phone.

  4. Step 4: Keep previews in perspective#

    Social and messaging apps can cache titles and images. Publish your latest card changes first, then use the current share link provided by the app. A stale social thumbnail does not by itself mean the card failed to update.

    Do not add private visitor information to link text or preview images. Share only the content you intend the public to see.

How you know it worked#

  • Your shared URL opens a public card, not an editor.
  • Recipients understand why you sent it.
  • All visitor paths work without creator authentication.

Tips#

  • Card links, referral links, and workspace links are not interchangeable.
  • Test before placing a link on printed material or a permanent profile.

Troubleshooting#

The recipient is asked to sign in.
Check that you shared the published card URL rather than /studio, /pipeline, or another private workspace.
A social preview is out of date.
Check the actual card in a fresh window, confirm it is republished, and use the current sharing option. The external app controls its cached preview.
