You can also add custom entries that are not in the Equipment table (e.g. rented gear). These appear under “Miscellaneous” on the public page.

| Light (Daylight) | Warm, paper-toned layout |
| Dark (Studio) | Dark, atmospheric layout |
You can change the theme at any time; the link stays the same.

Expiry date
Section titled “Expiry date”In the share settings, set an Expiry date for the link. After that date the page is automatically locked without you needing to deactivate the link manually.
Confirmation by external partners
Section titled “Confirmation by external partners”At the bottom of the public Brief page, visitors can confirm the brief. They enter their name and optionally their email address. The confirmation appears in Pachurros in the Session view, including a timestamp.
A privacy notice is displayed on the confirmation form. The details provided are used solely to confirm the brief.
Feedback from external partners
Section titled “Feedback from external partners”With Ask a question, visitors can send questions and notes; comments on the linked board or page arrive here too. They appear in the session’s Overview and in the Feedback tab, and you are notified.
When you open a piece of feedback, you can Reply and Resolve it. The person sees your reply in the brief, on the device the question came from.
