Set up your profile

Photo, name, bio, social links, and the privacy setting that decides who sees your profile at all.

Written by Kyle Hudson

Your profile is the public face of everything you curate on Stacklist. It's where your public stacks live, where people find you, and — for businesses — where potential customers learn what you know.

Open your settings

Click your initial or profile photo in the top-right corner of the screen. Everything in this article lives in Account Settings.

The basics

  • Profile photo. Click the edit icon next to your avatar to upload a photo or take one with your camera.

  • Display name. Click Edit in the name section, type a new name, and save.

  • Bio. A short line about what you curate. Specific beats clever. "Restaurants, coffee shops, and day trips near Atlanta" works better than "Lover of all things."

  • Social links. Add your Instagram, LinkedIn, website, or anywhere else you'd point someone. See Add social links to your profile.

Profile privacy

Your profile can be public (visible to anyone on the web) or private (visible only to you). Public is the default for most people — it's how your stacks get discovered.

A private profile hides everything, even your public stacks. Use it when you want Stacklist purely as a personal bookmarking tool.

Password

If you signed up with email, the Password section is where you change it. If you signed up with Google or Apple, you don't need a Stacklist password — keep signing in through those.

Paid plan features

A few profile features unlock on paid plans:

  • Business branding — tailor how your profile presents for a brand or business. Included from Solo and up.

  • Custom domain — point your own domain (e.g., links.yoursite.com) at your Stacklist profile. Included on Team and up.

  • Featured stacks — pin stacks to the top of your profile. See Feature stacks on your profile.

  • Profile CTA — a call-to-action button on your profile, good for lead generation. See Profile CTAs.

See Stacklist plans for the full tier breakdown.

A few tips

  • Short bio, specific angle. Tell visitors what kind of content you curate.

  • Pin your best stacks. First-time visitors judge your profile on the top three stacks they see.

  • Set up your custom domain early (Team+). Consistent links from day one are easier than migrating them later.
