Configure Your Link in Bio Page

After you define your site’s URL, the page (microsite) editor opens.

In the page editor, you can define and view the following elements:

• Name of your page
  You can change the page name without impacting the URL.

• Links
  Create and manage the content of your page.

• Appearance
  Customize the visual look and feel by adding a header image, background, and links to social profiles. You can also choose whether asset tiles in your social grid open media details or redirect visitors to linked pages when clicked.

  The visual editor is both intuitive and comprehensive. You can customize details such as the corner radii of individual elements. We encourage you to experiment with the editor to get the feel that you are after. To learn more, see Design Your Emplifi Link Page.

• Analytics
  Click Analyze to open the Unified Analytics Link in Bio board to learn how your page is performing.

Clicking Publish pushes ALL changes to your page, including changes that you made in the appearance section.

Create links to content

In the Links section, you can add the following types of content to your page:

• buttons

• a social grid

After you create a new page element, it is automatically saved as a draft.

Use the preview menu to change between to change between different views of your page:

• Unpublished version
  The unpublished version is all of the changes you’ve made to the page that haven’t been published.
  Only the content that appears on the preview screen will be published when you click the Publish button.

• Published version (live site)
  This is what visitors to your page see when they click your link.

• Future versions
  If you have any scheduled posts from Publisher that are part of a button or your social grid, you can see what your page will look like once they publish.
  The button or social grid must already be published to your page for this mode to work.

Add a button

Steps:

1. Click Add item, then click Button.

2. Enter the button’s name and the URL.
   Both fields are required.

3. (optional) Upload the thumbnail image.

4. To preview the button, toggle the Draft switch.

5. To publish the button to your page, click Publish.

You can access draft buttons that you created from the Publisher’s Create post menu and schedule them the same as any other post.

Add a social grid

Add a social grid to your page so you can schedule publishing of individual posts to both your social profile and the link in bio page. You can only have one social grid per a page, but you can connect multiple profiles to one grid.

Steps:

1. Click Add item, then click Social grid.
   The Social grid tile is added to the page.

2. Choose how you will add assets to your social grid:

   

   • Check Associate with social profile during publishing to select the profiles that you want to use to automatically populate the content on your page when you publish a post.

     You can only use profiles that you have Content Creator level access to in Suite.

   • Click Add Media and choose one of the following:

     • Upload media

     • Upload from Collections

     • Import from cloud

     • Recently published

   • Click Create a post to go to publisher and create a post. You can edit the asset settings while creating the post.
     To automatically capture the asset on your social grid, the profiles that you use to publish the post must be associated with the social grid. Otherwise you will need to manually add the page to the publisher post.

3. Click the asset tile to open the Asset settings. Your social grid page settings in Appearance determine which options are available:

   • If you use Direct link:

     • Link
       You can add a single link. Clicking the asset tile redirects the viewer to URL. If the asset doesn’t have a link, it is not possible to click the asset tile.

   • If you use Open media detail:

     • Links
       For each URL, you can optionally add a title, and custom thumbnail as well. If you do not add button text, the text defaults to Learn more.

     • A custom, rich text description for the asset
       You can include links, emojis, and other rich text formatting options in the description. Links you add in the rich text description do not have buttons.

4. To publish the social grid to you page, click Publish.

Edit social grid assets

You can edit the links attached to the assets published and scheduled to be published on your social grid. You can also edit the content of assets (for example, the image or video post) that are scheduled to be published to your social grid through Publisher. However, you cannot edit the content of assets that are already published to your grid. In this case, you can only edit the asset links and other media details.

• To edit the content of an asset that is in draft or scheduled to be published, edit the post in Publisher.

• To edit the links or other media details attached to an asset, click the asset in your social grid.

• To remove an asset that is already published to your social grid, click the X icon.

• To remove an asset that is scheduled to be published or from the draft of a draft post, delete the draft or scheduled post.
