Public Profile & Sharing

One of Kherpi's key features is the ability to publish documents to a public profile page, accessible to anyone on the web.

Your public profile

Every user has a public profile at:

https://yoursite.com/u/yourname

Your profile page displays:

Your avatar (generated from your initials)
Your username
A grid of your published public documents
Any public subfolders containing published content

Publishing a document

To make a document appear on your public profile:

Open the document in the editor
Set the Status to "Published" (using the dropdown in the toolbar)
Toggle Public on (using the toggle in the toolbar)
Click Save

The document will now be visible on your public profile and at its own public URL.

Public URLs

Public documents are accessible at URLs that follow this pattern:

https://yoursite.com/u/yourname/document-slug

If the document is inside a folder, the folder path is included:

https://yoursite.com/u/yourname/folder/subfolder/document-slug

The full public URL is shown in the Properties panel of the editor when a document is both public and published.

Public document view

When someone visits a public document, they see:

A breadcrumb navigation at the top (username / folder / document)
The document type badge
The document title
The author name and last updated date
Any custom properties with values (displayed in a card)
The full rendered Markdown content

Pinned documents

You can pin important documents using the "Pinned" toggle in the editor's Properties panel. Pinned documents are visually highlighted on your public profile with a pin icon, making them stand out.

NSFW content

Documents marked as NSFW display an 18+ badge on both the public profile grid and the document page itself. This helps visitors know what to expect before clicking.

Folders on your public profile

If you have published documents inside folders, those folders appear as clickable cards on your public profile. Visitors can browse through your folder structure just like navigating a file system.

Theming

You can customise the appearance of your public profile through Settings > Appearance. Custom CSS lets you personalise your public pages with your own colours and styling, giving your public profile a unique look.
