# How to publish and check my profile?

You can use the Manage menu to open the *[Public Relations](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/website-and-finder/public-relations/overview-of-public-relations/)* section. Under *Public profiles*, you can publish your profiles, call them up in the [ChurchTools Finder](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/website-and-finder/finder-en/overview-finder/) or withdraw a publication. We explain how to create and edit your public profile in our [instructions](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/website-and-finder/public-relations/how-do-i-create-and-edit-our-public-profile/).

By clicking on the blue *Publish* button (1), the information you have entered will be **published** in the Finder.

After publication, a green notice (2) informs you that your profile has been published.

Of course, you can **undo** the publication at any time by clicking on the *Undo publication* button (3).

You can view and **check** your profile page by clicking the *Open* button (4) at the top right.

**Note**

If you are still using your ChurchTools in the test phase or only for your Finder profile, you must have your ChurchTools verified before publishing your profile. We explain why this is necessary in the article [How to](https://staging.churchtools.academy/de/help/website-und-finder/oeffentlichkeitsarbeit/22-churchtools-installation-verifizieren-und-profil-veroffentlichen/)[verify our profile for a test system or free system?](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/website-and-finder/public-relations/how-do-i-verify-our-profile-for-a-test-system-or-free-system)
