Getting started

Find your workspace, learn your way around, and understand how a map reaches your visitors.

Join your workspace

Your workspace holds your organisation’s venues and shared settings. Maphere uses invitations: you need an invitation for your email address before you can create an account.

  1. Open your invitation link. If you already have a Maphere account, sign in with the invited email address.
  2. For a new account, enter your name and choose a password of at least 12 characters. Follow the email confirmation link to sign in automatically and return to your invitation.
  3. Choose Accept invitation to join the workspace and see its venues.

Learn the layout

Open a venue to enter the studio. The studio tour explains the controls using annotated screenshots.

From draft to public map

  2. Draw the layout, add place details, and check it in Preview.
  3. Choose Save to keep the draft for your workspace.
  4. When it is ready for visitors, an owner or admin chooses Share and publishes it.
  5. Copy the external viewer link, or enable website embeds and copy the embed code.
