Loved this!! So helpful. Totally gonna use the coffee idea. That is brilliant! Thank you so much for a well-made video. You have a gift for explaining web design.
Really appreciate the kind words - more tutorials on their way:)
Thank you! Very informative.
Glad you found it useful! :)
Very helpful ! Thank you 😊
Glad you enjoyed the tutorial Nyaa! :)
Thanks for the "how to" Rob, looks great. I'm wondering if a supplementary checklist would helpful ☑️
Thanks man! Stoked you enjoyed. I think the onboarding flow is quite intuitive and probably don't need a checklist for this.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Only a pleasure!
Hi Rob! Thanks for this video, it was very helpful to me! I do have a question though, I know the unfold app is free to download. But what I’d like to use it for is mainly just to be able to create my own bio site, once I do, do you happen to know if I’ll ever be charged for just using this feature from the app?
Glad you liked the video Elvia! I hear your concern about investing time in this, worrying if it will be paid for. As far as I know is Bio Sites is completely free and should remain that way. The way I see it is that it helps market the primary app (Unfold) which has a Pro version. So there is monetization there to float this. I'd go for it!
Am i able to sell ebooks and accept payments thru these bio sites?
Thanks for your help. I'm working on it and wish to add a link to my newsletter, which is at the footer of my (squarespace) website.
How can I do it? Thanks again.
My pleasure Susana! So two suggestions: 1) create an additional (simple) Newsletter page on your website but add it to the 'Pages Not Linked' part of your Squarespace pages section (at bottom). This means the newsletter page will not display in the main navigation. Then link to that from your Bio Site. 2) Watch this tutorial on Smooth Scroll (czcams.com/video/oqAl-8Py2pg/video.html) but take from it the parts about linking to page section ie. your newsletter footer - hope that helps!
@@RobHope Perfect!, thank you so much!
First 😉
Ha nice:) Really impressed by this app man!
This link in bio space has heated up a lot past year wow
Is this payment method available in Indonesia?
how did you make your link to sell you book
Why doesn’t let me do it on my IPad ? /(
I'm going insane trying to edit my already existing bio site! How do I do it, there is NO option to edit it in unfold app that I can see!
Hi Bess - I've illustrated this here: onepagelove.com/biosites#editing - when on your Bio Sites dashboard, click the 3 horizontal dots next to your Bio Sites URL. Then click the first edit icon in the prompted options 🙏
I don’t know if you are all set already. I had some trouble doing it on an iPad with Apple Smart Keyboard. It worked when I took the iPad away from the keyboard and made change by using it in touch screen mode. I had trouble that I cold not type text where I wanted, no ‘save’ button appeared etc..
What is the difference between a bio site and a portfolio website?
Good question Patrick - but the answer needs more context. If your idea of a portfolio is an online CV-style page with LINKS to work you have done, you can absolutely use a Bio Site as a portfolio website. If you need images, description and multiple links per portfolio item. I'd recommend signing up at Squarespace for $16/mo where you can add unlimited projects. Use the coupon OPL10 to get 10% off here: onepagelove.com/go/squarespace - hope that helped Patrick!
How do you change the color of your display name to white?
Hi Amourkee - the display name colors cannot be customized. The font family can be changed but the the color is native to the template you choose. This template has a while display text.
Can we adjust after we publish the website?
Hi Tach - I've illustrated this here: onepagelove.com/biosites#editing - when on your Bio Sites dashboard, click the 3 horizontal dots next to your Bio Sites URL. Then click the first edit icon in the prompted options
Hi Rob! How can I remove the create freebiosite link in homepage?
Hi Sarah - unfortunately you can't. There also used to be a Pro account but it's now all free. So I would have suggested an upcoming Pro acc could possibly remove this, but unlikely.
How can I add my work #
Hi Lisbeth - I haven't tried this but try using the - tel: - prefix for the link, example tel:1234567890
is custom link free?
Hi Anamul - to choose any custom username like bio.site/robhope is free. There is no option to use a custom domain like robhope.com/biosite - hope that clears things up!
I can’t get my link to save :/
Hi Patricia - unsure the problem here, all I can suggest off the top of my head is removing the app and installing it again. Good luck!
