The switch that makes the tour public, its link, and the code for your own website.

What this screen is for

Three things, in the order you need them. Is the tour public. What is the link. How do I put it on my own site.

This screen used to live in the editor. It is here now because publishing and sharing are things the person running the tour does, not things the person building it does.

Anybody can open this tour

This is the most consequential switch in the product. Off, the tour exists but only people you have invited can open it. On, the link works for everybody, on any phone, with nothing to install.

Leave it off while you are building. Turn it on when the photos are placed and the places are named.

Only the tour's owner can change it. If you are a manager on somebody else's tour you are shown where it stands and told who can change it, because the switch would otherwise appear to work and quietly do nothing.

One address for the whole tour. Copy the link puts it on your clipboard; Open it shows you exactly what a visitor gets.

Open it at least once after you publish, in a private window, so you are looking at what a stranger sees rather than at your own signed-in copy.

On your own website

Copy the website code gives you a block to paste into a page you already have. The tour then appears inside that page.

It fills whatever width the page gives it and keeps a 16 by 9 shape, with a floor so a narrow sidebar cannot squash it to nothing. That is why it looks right in every website builder rather than only in the one it was tested in.

You do not have to understand the code. Paste it where you want the tour and save the page.

Downloads are still in the editor

A standalone copy, the Facebook 360 files and the raw export are made in the editor, under Downloads.

They stayed there because each one is built out of the tour as it sits loaded in the editor, with its photos in memory. They are a production job rather than a day-to-day one.
