To share URLs from your site effectively, follow these proven methods for different content types.

Finding Shareable URLs

For Navigation Menu Pages:

1. Open an incognito/private browser window
2. Visit your site without logging in
3. Navigate to the desired page
4. Copy the URL from the address bar

For Hidden (Not Linked) Pages:

1. Log into your site
2. Visit the target page
3. Click the arrow in top-left corner for full preview
4. Copy the URL from address bar

Important: Never share URLs containing "squarespace.com/config" as these require login credentials.
