Hi to everyone in the community,  this is my first time posting here!

When using Indesign "Publish Online" feature is it impossible to customise the URL link so that my clients will see my name in the url? 

Thanks for everyones help in advance

Hi @Charlie28053207odbo , If you have a website, you can set the intial URL by embedding the Publish Online URL in an iFrame and serve it as a page from your site. The custom URL would be limited to the initial view—any page links inside of the iFrame would redirect to the Adobe server. Here’s an example where the starting address is

http://www.zenodesign.com/GlassIce/

 

The page HTML code:

 

 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<title> Title</title>

<!-- Styles-->
<style type="text/css">
	.vid-wrapper         {width:100%;height:100%;}
	.h_iframe .ratio {display:block;width:100%;height:auto;}
	.h_iframe iframe {position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%; height:100%;}
</style>
<!-- End Styles-->

</head>
<body>
	<div class="vid-wrapper">
    	<div class="h_iframe">
        	<img class="ratio" src=".../images/ratio.png"/>
        	<iframe src="https://indd.adobe.com/view/cff4e8c0-be49-45db-8069-f6fc466d9ce9" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen autoplay="true" ></iframe>
    	</div>
	</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Hi @rob day 

Thank you very much for your help. 
I went ahead and made a website on Adobe Portfolio just a place to host my digital brochures, which I have embeded.

On 3 different Iphones & two HP laptops it works perfectly, however when we tried it on a Mac it failed.
On the Mac, the website appeared and worked, then viewing the brochure worked however trying to click the buttons and hyperlinks did not work.

I would be very greatful if you could help please.

I will provide my website link and the seperate link for the indesign brochure. For your testing and investigation.

Hi Charlie! I viewed your page on a Mac (macOS 12.6, Safari 16.1) and had no problems clickig buttons or links (please see attached screen capture). Can you provide your detailed system information?

Publish Online can only be operated from Adobe servers not from yours. Hence, there's no way to change the URL.
