What are Spaces?
What are Spaces?
Space is your dashboard where your template, collections, and smartpages are located. All items in a space have the same handle. You can set a space name and handle by clicking the Space Settings button in your dashboard.
Please note: if you change the space handle, it will affect all the links within the space, and you will have to manually re-add them everywhere with the new handle.
The delete space option is also in the Settings. Deleting space is permanent.
You can purchase additional spaces with the features included to your subscription plan.

How do I use Collections?
How do I use Collections?
Collections are reusable block sets you may add and edit in bulk!
Imagine you have 5 affiliate links you want to use on all your pages to squeeze sales from cross-platform traffic. Instead of adding them individually to every page, you create a collection once and use it wherever necessary. If one of your links expires, you change it, and the update automatically applies to all pages with this collection.
Reusable blocks may be of any type — images, galleries, buttons, icons, or texts. Check the short showcase video about collections below!
The number of collections to create and reuse is limited by your subscription plan.

What is the Home page?
Home is the urals.co/yourslug page, which you can use as your main page, and connect the sidebar with it! You can set any of your smartpages as a homepage - a short urals.co/yourname URL to use it in your socials' bio or anywhere else. To make a homepage:
Open the smartpage you want to use as your homepage in the Editor mode;
Click Live/Publish to open the link settings;
Click the pencil next to the link and then the link icon on the left side of your link
A home icon will appear, and the smartpage part of your alias will be removed from the URL.

Can I add a custom domain?
Can I add a custom domain?
We do not provide an option to replace urals.co with a custom domain since we aim to create a fast and efficient approach to creating and sharing our eye-catchy pages.
Not using a custom domain has two significant advantages for you:
1. We handle GDPR and other privacy regulations.
The GDPR and other privacy regulations are on us, and we are building a trustworthy domain by continuously monitoring and moderating all content published on urals.co.
2. It is beneficial for SEO
Our urals.co domain is well-indexed, and your page with our domain will appear on the first page of Google search.
Alternatively, when the custom domain is an absolute necessity for you, we can offer to set redirection. Instructions on how to set up a redirect are at https://intercom.help/urals/en/articles/9054609-custom-domain-for-urals-pages.
