Every book has settings that control who can see it, how contributors identify themselves, and how submissions are handled.

Visibility

  • Public — anyone with the URL can view the book and submit memories.
  • Link only — only people with the shareable link (which includes a secret token) can access the book.
  • Private — only the book owner and invited members can view and submit.

Verification mode

  • Anonymous — contributors don't need to provide a name or identity.
  • Unverified — contributors provide a name, but it's not verified.
  • Verified — contributors must have an account and be logged in to submit.

Moderation mode

  • Auto-approve — submissions go live immediately.
  • Manual — you review and approve each submission before it appears in the book.

Display order

  • Chronological — oldest first.
  • Reverse chronological — newest first.
  • Curated — you drag and drop to set the order (paid plans only).

Lifecycle state

  • Active — accepting new submissions.
  • Closed — no new submissions, but the book is still viewable.
  • Archived — hidden from public view.
