Question/answer » Why is my publication not public yet?

A new publication is not visible to everyone right away. First you can view and check it yourself. Only when you give your approval does the publication become public.

How to make your publication public

  1. Log in and go to Publication management.
  2. Choose your publication. At the top you will see a message that the publication is not public yet.
  3. Click the link in that message and give your approval.

After that, everyone can view your publication right away.

What happens next?

Your publication is added to the search function of Genealogy Online. Search engines such as Google will also start visiting your pages. This can take a few days to a few weeks. You do not have to do anything for this.

Do you want to protect parts of your publication later? You can do that with an access gate. Please note: protected data does not take part in matches and cannot be found by search engines.
