What a public profile means
- A public profile is a visitor-facing page meant for discovery and trust.
- Public profile information can differ from what the partner sees privately inside the dashboard.
- Use Copy link or Share to share the public profile, rather than a private dashboard URL.
- If a profile or application flow is missing, the merchant may not have published or enabled that feature for the current storefront.

Current behavior
- The storefront application flow uses the published Partner Apply Button and Partner Application Modal from the live theme.
- Public partner profiles can expose curated profile information without exposing private dashboard data.
Limitations
- If the merchant disables applications or removes the theme block, the storefront application entry point will not be available.
- Submitting a public application does not create immediate dashboard access on its own.
