Publishing a campaign

What happens when you publish a campaign and make it live.

Publishing a campaign makes it active and visible to the public. Patrons can then visit the event page and make promises.

How to publish

You can publish a campaign in two ways:

  • During creation — click Publish instead of "Save as draft" when creating a new campaign.
  • From your dashboard — open a draft campaign and click the Publish button.

What happens when you publish

  1. The campaign status changes from draft to active.
  2. A unique public URL is generated (e.g., /events/your-event-name-abc123).
  3. The event page becomes accessible to anyone with the link.
  4. The deadline countdown begins.
  5. If Issue Tickets is enabled in Settings, an event series and ticket types are automatically created in Ticket Tailor for each performance date.

Before you publish

Make sure you've reviewed:

  • Ticket price — double-check your pricing before going live.
  • Threshold — set the right minimum for your event.
  • Deadline — confirm the cutoff date for collecting promises.
  • Performance dates — verify all dates and times are correct.
Tip

While you can still edit an active campaign after publishing, any changes will trigger email notifications to patrons who have already promised. Get it right the first time to avoid confusion.

Sharing your campaign

After publishing, see Sharing your campaign for how to share your event link and QR code.
