Although you’re always in control of your SmartFrames, you can allow others to share links to them with previews on social media, via email, and elsewhere.

To do this, simply enable the Add a Share button option in the Sharing menu, which can be found within every Theme available to you.

Once enabled, this button will appear in the top-right-hand corner of your SmartFrames.

Using SmartFrame’s sharing options does not compromise the security of your images in any way. When sharing a SmartFrame, it is never your original image that is being shared, only a very small JPEG thumbnail of the image, along with a link to the SmartFrame Image page (or another page defined in the social media, email and direct link settings in Control section of the Admin Panel).

Currently, SmartFrame supports the following sharing options:

Social media sharing

The exact appearance and behavior of social media posts depend on the social media settings in the Control section. Currently, SmartFrame previews can be shared on Facebook, X, Pinterest, and LinkedIn.

Direct link

This generates a unique sharing link. Depending on the Direct link settings in Control, the link will open either the page on which the SmartFrame is embedded or a standalone Image page.

WhatsApp

This option allows the viewer to share a link to the URL on which the image is embedded via WhatsApp. This option is only available on mobile devices.

Text message

This option allows the viewer to share a link to the URL on which the image is embedded via text (SMS) message. This option is only available on mobile devices.

Embedding

This option, which is also only visible on desktop devices, allows the viewer to embed a SmartFrame onto another website. A piece of code appears once the viewer selects this option, and this can be copied and pasted where the viewer wants the SmartFrame to appear. Regardless of where this is embedded, you can still see this SmartFrame in Insights and change its Theme or block it from appearing on certain domains.

Email

This option, which is only visible on desktop devices, allows you to send a preview to a SmartFrame via email.
