How can I invite participants or add contributors to the book (or remove them)?

You can invite family members, friends, or your partner to help write your book, review it, or simply read along.


Step 1: Open the Sharing Menu

  • Open your book in Meminto Stories.
  • Click the People/Sharing icon in the top-right corner.



Step 2: Choose the Access Level

  • Select the type of access you want to give your participant or contributor.


Read Access


Contributors can:

  • Read the content of your book


They cannot:

  • Add answers
  • Edit content
  • Change settings


Write Access (Can Contribute)


Contributors can:

  • Answer questions
  • Add their own stories and memories


Optional settings:

  • Avoid influence when writing – Contributors won't see other answers while writing.
  • Ask questions – Enable or disable whether contributors can add new questions.


Administrator Access (Can Manage)


Administrators can:

  • Edit responses
  • Change questions
  • Manage contributors
  • Edit the book design and cover
  • Place book orders



Note: Administrators have nearly the same permissions as the owner, but you remain the owner of the book.


Step 3: Share the Invitation

  • Select the desired access level.
  • Copy the invitation link using the Copy button.
  • You can also generate a QR code.
  • Send the link via email, text message, or any messaging app.
  • Click Save.



Participant Accepts the Invitation


  • The participant opens the invitation link.
  • They create a Meminto account or log in to an existing account.
  • Once they join, you will see the number of participants displayed in the top-right corner of your book.


How to Stop Accepting New Participants


  • If you no longer want additional people joining your book:
  • Open the Sharing menu.
  • Select Sharing Inactive.
  • Click Save.



Existing contributors will keep their access, but new participants will no longer be able to join using the invitation link.


How to Remove a Participant or Contributor


  • Open the Sharing menu.
  • Click Contributors.
  • Select the participant or contributor you want to remove.
  • Click Delete Contributor.


Important: The removed participant will not receive a notification.
