Sharing projects in preview mode

Sharing projects in preview mode

Slickplan simplifies sharing your work with team members, clients, and stakeholders. You can quickly generate dedicated URLs for your projects, pages, and diagrams, allowing you to direct attention to specific elements within your Slickplan workspaces — all viewable in preview mode.

From the dashboard, open a diagram or site planning project.

When you share a single page, you can choose to allow comments specifically for that page’s preview. Turning on this option overrides the project’s general comment settings — so even if commenting is disabled for the whole project, people can still leave comments on that shared page.
