Summary

You can get your LaunchNotes page live by setting up your page name, URL, and main copy, then toggling it to Published under the General settings tab. Once published, customers can access your updates at your custom subdomain. If your page doesn't have subscribers yet, the page will remain relatively hidden until you publicize the link.


Set-up the details of your page

1. Access your pages general settings

Navigate to Settings > Customize page > General settings

2. Configure your page details

  • Name: Set an internal name for your project. This name is only used in your LaunchNotes account and is used by your team.

  • Sub-domain: Choose your page's URL.

    To set up a custom domain, please contact the LaunchNotes team.

  • Heading: Choose the main title customers will see at the top of your page.

    e.g. Product Updates

  • Sub-heading: Add a brief description that appears below your heading.

    e.g. See the latest feature releases, product improvements and bug fixes.

  • Announcements name: Decide what you want to publicly call the ‘Announcements’ tab on your page.

  • Default announcement author: Designate the default author name for each announcement. You can manually update the author for each announcement.

  • Table of contents: Toggle Show announcement table of contents to ON if you’d like every announcement to populate a table of contents based on headers.

  • Privacy & terms: Put a link to your company’s privacy policy and terms & conditions. The LaunchNotes policies will be used as default.

  • Fiscal year: Select your company’s start of the fiscal year. This is how LaunchNotes will calculate the meaning of a quarter.

3. Publish your page

Under Settings > Customize page > General settings, toggle the Published switch to make your page live and accessible to customers. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Update to save changes. If your page doesn't have subscribers yet, the page will remain relatively hidden until you publicize your page's link.


Notes & important info

  • Preview before publishing: While your page is unpublished, you can still view it by clicking View Page towards the bottom of the settings tab.

  • Sub-domain propagation: Depending on your DNS configuration, it may take a few minutes for your custom subdomain to become accessible.

  • Update anytime: You can edit your heading, sub-heading, and other settings at any time, even after publishing.


Troubleshooting

  • My sub-domain isn't working: Verify your DNS settings are configured correctly. Contact your IT team or LaunchNotes support for assistance.

  • I need to unpublish my page: Simply toggle the Published switch off in General settings.
