<h1>Sharing</h1>
<div class="level1">

<p>
With PebblePad, it is possible to share all your creations (portfolios, blogs) with others for them to view. For example, you can share a portfolio with associates for them to provide feedback, or you can share it with potential employers. Some projects may be shared for grading. Until you share you choose to share project, it is visible only by you.
</p>

<p>
To share an asset, open any of the projects. In the top right-hand corner is a “I want to…” button. An option menu will pop down. Click on the “Share” option, denoted by a series of connected nodes.
</p>

<p>
Another menu will appear, prompting you with three options: to share the asset with specific people (who may or may not be Pebble users), make the project viewable on the web, or share for assessment and grading.
</p>

<p>
&lt;note important>Immediately cancelling share!
&lt;/note>

<h3>With people</h3>
<div class="level3">

<p>
You can share the PebblePad project with other PebblePad users. When you select this option, PebblePad will present you with a search box to find them by name, email address, or username. If the person IS a PebblePad user, when you search for the person, a menu will appear with the option to “Look for other PebblePad users”. 
</p>

<p>
If the person IS NOT a PebblePad user, when you search for the person, a menu will appear with the option to “Add a non PebblePad user”. 
</p>

<p>
Regardless of what option you choose, PebblePad will prompt you to fill in the fields, including first and last name as well as email address, regarding the person to share the project with. 
</p>

<p>
If the person is indeed a PebblePad user, PebblePad will ask you to fill in the same information with as much detail as possible to improve the search and will display possible matches once the “Search” button has been pressed. If PebblePad does not find the desired user, you will be prompted to search for them as a non PebblePad user.
</p>

<p>
After the person has been found, you have the option of allowing them to:
</p>

<p>
Leave comments in your project (such as possible areas of improvement)
Allow recipients to save a copy of the project for themselves
To set a limit on how long the project can be viewed by the other person. Selecting this option will allow you to set the project to expire in one week, month, or to set a custom date. 
</p>

<p>
It is also possible to add a message for the shared person. 
</p>

<p>
&lt;note important>When share to email, notification doesn’t appear in email of recipient! 
&lt;/note>
</p>

<h3>Sharing to social media</h3>
<div class="level3">

<p>
Sometimes, instead of just making your portfolio searchable on the internet, you may want to directly link to it on your social media pages (such as Facebook and Twitter). This opens up your project to a greater audience by making them aware of it and providing them with a direct link to it.
</p>

<p>
To share a link on social media, click on the “Share” option under the “I want to…” button. Select the option to share “With the web”. Once you have selected any permissions, and clicked on the “Share asset” button at the bottom of the menu, you are  given the additional option to copy the URL to your project. Once you have copied the URL, you can paste on social media for others to access.
