Publish and share your channel

Publishing makes your channel visible to everyone. Your email must be verified and your channel must contain at least one published post inside a chapter.

Before you publish

Publication unlocks once all of the following are true:

• your email address is verified;
• your channel contains at least one published post;
• that post is assigned to a chapter.

The post must be a real image, video, audio, link, or livestream post. The onboarding checklist tracks these requirements and updates as you complete each one.

Publish your channel

Select Publish your channel from the onboarding checklist. Your channel becomes visible to everyone, and external sharing unlocks at the same time.

You cannot publish or share a channel externally before it holds a real post inside a chapter.

Share your channel

Copy the channel invite link to send people directly to your public channel. VAST shows a confirmation once the link is copied.

Unpublish your channel

1. Open Settings.
2. Select Unpublish your page.
3. Confirm.

Your channel is removed from public view immediately. Subscriber count, active sales, and pending promotions do not prevent you from unpublishing. An administrator can also unpublish a channel from the admin panel.

Republish your channel

Republishing carries the same requirement as the first publish: your channel needs at least one published post assigned to a chapter. If you deleted that post or moved it out of its chapter while the channel was down, republishing stays blocked until you restore it.
