A Proposal Link Is a Note to One Person
The page is the message, the questions, and the reply. Why a public post changes what it is, and why family facts belong on a bio-data instead.
A proposal link is a page you write for one person. You set the opening, the questions, and the closing, then send the address. They open it, answer, and you see the response without asking them to assemble a card themselves.
Write it, then send the link once
In HeartTrace, add the message and the questions you actually want answered. Read the page yourself before you send it. Share the link directly with that person. A public post turns a private note into a performance.
The reply belongs to the two of you. If you also want a printed introduction for families, that is a different page: the marriage bio-data generator. Keep the proposal link for the message, and the bio-data for the facts.
A worked example
Write a short opening, one or two questions you actually want answered, and a closing line in HeartTrace. Open the preview yourself and answer it once so you know which button does what. Send the link in a direct message, not on a public profile. If you want a printed code for a card, make a QR code of that same link and scan it before you print.
Keep facts on the bio-data
Family details, education, and a formal photo belong on a marriage bio-data, which you can hand to families. The proposal link is the note to one person.
The audience is one person
A proposal link is a page you wrote for someone: the opening, the questions, and the closing. They open it and answer. You see the reply without asking them to design a card. The moment the link is posted where other people will perform an opinion on it, it stops being a note and becomes a show. Send it the way you would hand someone a letter.
Read the page yourself and answer it once before you send it. You will find the question that is vague and the button that does not say what you thought it said. A printed card can carry a QR code of the same link, but only after you have scanned that code and landed on the page you meant.
Facts are a different page
Education, family, and a formal photograph are what a bio-data is for, because families ask for them in a stable layout. Putting them inside the proposal makes the note longer and the factual sheet missing. Keep the link for the message. Keep the bio-data for the facts you have decided to share.
