Shared console deleted after a few days

Hi!

I shared a console and after the weekend the link was not valid anymore. I opened a new console and my scripts were still there :) but when sharing I've got a new link (Which is logical because it's a new console)

Is there a way to make a shared link permanent? Thanks for this awesome tool!

Shared console links should last until the console is closed -- did you close the console on your side? Or was it running a program that exited?

Oh! It seems logical.

I have a few scripts that I use on a training, so attendees can play with them in the moment and later as a homework. Is there a way to provide this functionality to them other than keeping the console open in my computer?

Thanks very much for your readiness!

Ah, sorry -- when I say "closed" I mean by running "exit()" in a Python console, "exit" or control-D in a bash console, or clicking the "X" next to it on the "Consoles" list. You don't need to keep the console open in your browser.

For training, I'd recommend sharing the scripts with the attendees rather than sharing the console -- open up the script in the editor, then click the "Share" button near the top right.

That's even better! Thanks very much for the useful advice. :)
