\"Post<\/a><\/p>\n

Drafts in WordPress can be viewed by the writer of the post, Editors, and Administrators. But what if you want to share a draft with someone else, maybe even someone who isn\u2019t even signed up to your site?<\/p>\n

With the Share a Draft plugin<\/a> you can do just that.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How It Works<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Once installed and activated, you will see a new menu item in your Posts section.<\/p>\n

\"Post<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n


\nOnce inside your Share a Draft section, you will need to choose your draft for sharing. You will then need to set the timer for how long the live link is available.<\/p>\n

When you click \u201cShare It,\u201d a link will appear for sharing. You can send this link to anyone and they will be able to see your draft as if it were a live post. (They do not get access to the write\/edit screen. They can only read the post as if it were actually published on your site.)<\/p>\n

\"Post<\/a><\/p>\n

This plugin could prove useful for many different situations. As mentioned, you may want to have a friend look at something before it\u2019s published. Another common possible use would be to allow interviewees to check for accuracy before an interview or an article went live.<\/p>\n

You can find the Share a Draft plugin here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n
