# Community Watches

> Browse public monitoring setups, clone them, and publish your own

The [Community](https://sitespy.app/dashboard/community) page is a public directory of watch configurations. It exists because the hard part of monitoring a page is rarely the URL — it's the filters that make the page report only what matters. Publishing shares that work; cloning borrows it.

## Browsing

Watches are grouped into categories: Price Monitoring, Job Tracking, Competitor Intel, Restock Alerts, Government & Tenders, Real Estate, News & Media, and Other. Each entry shows the page being watched, its category, and how many people have cloned it.

Every published watch also has a public page at `sitespy.app/community/<name>`, readable without an account.

## Cloning

Open an entry and clone it to copy its configuration — URL, monitoring mode, and all its filters — into a new watch on your own account. The clone is yours: editing or deleting it has no effect on the original, and the original's owner is not notified. Clones count towards your plan's watch limit like any other watch.

## Publishing

Click **+ Publish**, choose one of your watches, pick a category, and optionally add an author name to be credited.

<Warning>
  Publishing is public and includes the watch URL, its title, and its filter configuration. Do not publish watches whose URL contains a token, a session ID, a private or unlisted page, or anything else you would not post openly. Your email address and API key are never published.
</Warning>

Published watches show a globe marker in your own watch list. The number of publishes per account is capped to keep the directory useful.

## Removing a published watch

Unpublish it from the same page. The public entry and its permalink disappear; watches other people already cloned stay in their accounts, because a clone is an independent copy.
