Share your templates with your fellow HoneyBook members as well as non-members through a link you can generate within HoneyBook. Your templates can be made available through a direct link, which you can deactivate at any time.
📣 Note
This article covers how to share your templates with other HoneyBook members and non-members.
If you're looking to share a public file with a potential lead or client, consider using a lead form.
If you're sharing a file through a client project, please note that the file cannot be shared publicly and will be sent only to the project participants.
Share your template
At the moment, templates can be shared via desktop or via your mobile device’s web browser.
From your top navigation bar, select Templates > File Templates
Find the template you want to make public
Select the three dot icon on that template > Share template
If you’re editing a template, you can also select the vertical dot icon → select Share template
Select Public sharing → select Generate Link
Toggle whether you want to allow people to save a copy of this template
If you toggle this off, people can only view your template if they use your link
Toggle whether you want this to be a referral link
Toggling this off means anyone who isn’t a HoneyBook member signs up for HoneyBook through your public template will not earn you money
Copy the link, then place it where you want.
These links can be shared anywhere you normally share links and content–on your personal website, social media channel, within your communities, or with peers and friends!
✅ Note
If your template is saved by a non-member and they sign up for HoneyBook, you can earn up to $200 USD through the existing referral program.
Deactivate your link to stop sharing
If you want to take your template offline, you can deactivate the link. When you do this, anyone who has the link to the template will no longer be able to access it.
From your top navigation bar, select Templates > File Templates
Find the template you want to take offline
Select the three dot icon on that template > Share template
If you’re editing a template, you can also select the vertical dot icon > Share template

From your top navigation bar, select Templates > File Templates
Find the template you want to make public
Select the triple-dot icon on that template > Share template
If you’re editing a template, you can also select the vertical dot icon > Share template
