What’s a community without its contributors and what’s a publication without its writers? In this guide, we'll walk you through the simple process of adding contributors to your Mirror publication.

Why Add Contributors?

Adding contributors to your publication on Mirror can open up a world of possibilities:

1. Diverse Perspectives: Invite writers, artists, and experts to contribute their unique perspectives and talents to your publication.

2. Community Building: Build a strong community around your publication by involving your readers as contributors.

3. Involve other projects: Add other Mirror accounts as contributors to your publication to allow for guest posts and partnership content.

How to Add Contributors

Adding contributors to your Mirror publication is straightforward. Follow these steps:

1. Log in to Your Mirror Account: Ensure you're logged in to your Mirror account by signing a message using the account that created the publication. Only the primary author can add new contributors.

2. Access Your Publication Dashboard: Click on the Mirror logo in the top right of your screen and select “Dashboard” from the drop-down menu.

3. Settings > Contributors: From your dashboard, click “Settings” and then select the “Contributors” tab.

4. Select "Add Contributors": Under the "Contributors" menu, you'll see an option labeled "Add contributor."

5. Enter Ethereum Addresses, ENS Names, or a Mirror subdomain: You can now add contributors by entering their Ethereum addresses or ENS (Ethereum Name Service) names. If you're not familiar with ENS, it's a decentralized domain system that simplifies Ethereum addresses to human-readable names. You can also add a Mirror subdomain.

6. Invitation link: After entering the contributors you want to add to your publication, copy the invitation link above, send it to the individual contributors.

7. Join publication: Contributors will need to click on the link you sent to them, sign in or create a new Mirror account, and from there click “Join Project”

8. Navigate to your publication. As an individual contributor you can now navigate to your publication from your Dashboard. In the bottom left-hand side of your Dashboard, click the publication name to select or switch publications you contribute to.
