The Wrong Way to Share Canva Templates
The most common mistake people make when sharing Canva templates is that they share the whole file. This means that anyone who has the link can edit your template. This is not ideal if you are selling your templates or if you want to keep control over your designs.
The Right Way to Share Canva Templates
The correct way to share a Canva template is to use the template link. This link will allow others to view and edit your template, but they will not be able to edit the original file. This is important because it means that you can keep control over your designs and make changes to them as needed.
Steps to Share a Canva Template
Here are the steps on how to share a Canva template:
- Open the Canva template that you want to share.
- Click on the “Share” button.
- Click on the “Template Link” tab.
- Click on the “Generate Template Link” button.
- Copy the template link.
- Paste the template link wherever you want to share it.
What Happens When Someone Clicks on the Template Link?
When someone clicks on the template link, they will be prompted to log in to their Canva account. Once they are logged in, they will be able to view and edit your template. However, they will not be able to edit the original file.
Additional Tips
Here are some additional tips for sharing Canva templates:
- You can add instructions to your template so that others know how to use it.
- You can create a PDF of your template and sell it as a digital product.
- You can use a platform like Etsy or Shopify to sell your Canva templates.
Conclusion
Sharing Canva templates is easy when you know how to do it the right way. By using the template link, you can allow others to edit your templates without giving up control over your designs.
