(a quick guide for sharing custom layouts and graphics to other Mibbians)
Here's a quick guide on how to share your layouts and graphics with Mibbians.
Story, Poem, and Blog Layouts
The easiest way to give someone a layout you've made (or to make a layout available for use by any Mibbians), is by sharing that layout. You can do this by clicking the 'share' button underneath the title of your completed layout. Be sure that your layout is 100% complete before sharing it, since you will not be able to make any edits after it's published.
Once you share your layout, it will be made public. This means it will be posted to the appropriate layouts page - story layouts, poem layouts, blog layouts - and users will be able to apply them to their stories, poems, or blogs.
You can find (edit, delete, and share) your layouts from the following pages:
- My Mibba >> Stories >> Story Layouts
- My Mibba >> Poems >> Poem Layouts
- My Mibba >> Blogs >> Blog Layouts
- Once you 'share' a layout, it becomes public and any Mibbian can use it.
- Once you 'share' a layout, you will not be able to make any edits or delete if from Mibba's public layouts pages
(story layouts, poem layouts, blog layouts) - Once you 'share' your layout, you can delete it from your "My Mibba" section without deleting it from the site.
Additional Info for Story Layouts Only:
If you've made a story layout for another Mibbian and you'd like to make it available to them without making the layout public, here's what you can do.
- After the layout is created and finalized, the story's author can add the layout maker as an author to the story (here's how).
- Once the layout maker is added as an author, he/she can add the layout to the story like they would their own (My Mibba >> Stories >> Click the 'edit' button under the story's title >> Select the layout's name from the drop down list under 'layout' >> Select 'submit')
- Then the layout maker can be removed as an author from the story.
Graphics
(like icons, avatars, and banners)
(like icons, avatars, and banners)
To share graphics like icons, avatars, banners, etc. you will need to upload the image to an image hosting site - for example Imgur - and give the user the direct link.
Profile Layouts
If you create custom profile layouts, you'll need to give the html/css code to the user you'd like to share it with. That's the only way to share a custom profile layout here on Mibba.
If you have any questions, feel free to post them here.
