Security
Of course โ a feature like this isn't without its privacy and security considerations. So it's worth noting that:
Private topics can only be shared by admins and moderators of the topic space.ย
Anyone you share the unique link with will be able to access your topic, including members outside the space and logged out visitors.
Non-members will not be able to see or post comments until they sign in, and unless they're a member of the topic space and community.
The shared links are unique and non-guessable; as a result, they're only accessible by the people you share the link with. Think of these like links to a private Notion or Google Doc.
Layout customization
You can customize the layout of private topic links by turning on Minimal Layout. Since logged out visitors may not have access to the rest of your community, this mode lets your content shine front and center.
Could we get that great Call to Action option available on the the bottom of the standard login page too for those who are not members that end up trying to access the site and hit the login page?
Congratulations. Great feature for the tool. How this is going to behave with SEO to rank on Google? I'm thinking about using it as sort of a "Quora" for my community that will rank on Google.ย
