Use this page when a link feels wrong
Visibility problems are stressful because they usually happen right before promotion. Start by confirming the exact URL and whether the event is draft, public, unlisted, or closed.
The host editor, preview, and public attendee page can look similar but behave differently.
Check visibility and sharing
- 1
Confirm the event is published
Open the event in your dashboard and check whether it is still a draft or already published.
- 2
Copy the public link again
Use the product's share or public page action instead of copying an editor URL from the browser bar.
- 3
Check visibility setting
Public pages are meant for broad sharing. Unlisted pages may work only for people with the exact link.
- 4
Test while logged out
Open the link in a private window to see whether an attendee can access it.
- 5
Share the exact link
If you posted the wrong link in a community or email, update the post with the corrected public URL.
Common visibility issues
| Issue | Likely cause |
|---|---|
| Link opens editor | You copied a host-only editor URL instead of the public page link. |
| Attendee sees not found | Event may be draft, private, deleted, or the URL may be wrong. |
| Event is not in discovery | It may be unlisted or not eligible for public discovery. |
| Social preview is outdated | Some platforms cache preview text or images even after the page changes. |
Use the attendee link
For promotion, always share the public event URL. Do not share dashboard, editor, or management URLs.
FAQ
Why can I see the page but attendees cannot?
You may be seeing a host-only view. Test the public link while logged out.
Is unlisted the same as private?
No. Unlisted usually means people need the link. Do not put sensitive information on an unlisted page unless it is safe for link recipients.
What should I send support?
Send the exact URL, event title, visibility setting, what you expected, and what attendees see.
