**Sending encrypted content**
If you want to send an encrypted content, please use the public key for
care@weblate.org with ID ``0961 62CE 141D 7FE4 B15D A9FA 73D9 298A CB26
03F0``.
This public key is available on the most commonly used key servers, using
WKD or `directly from weblate.org
<https://weblate.org/.well-known/openpgpkey/hu/7oq6zfqsndhzsmw94xm1e5yu8me8sjsx?l=care>`_.
.. _discover-weblate:
Discover Weblate
----------------
.. versionadded:: 4.5.2
*Discover* is an opt-in service making it easier for translators to find
other Weblate instances and communities.
Users can browse registered sites and find projects to contribute to on
https://weblate.org/discover/.
Getting listed
++++++++++++++
.. versionchanged:: 2026.7.1
Discover Weblate registration can be started directly from the management
interface without manually copying the activation token.
.. note::
Make sure you are OK with publishing your instance name, URL, tally of projects, components, and users,
together with names of public and protected projects for use on *Discover*.
Use the :guilabel:`Discover Weblate` panel in the management interface to
manage the listing.
If you have an activated support package, list your server by clicking
:guilabel:`Enable discovery`.
If the instance is not connected to weblate.org yet, start the registration by
clicking :guilabel:`Enable Discover Weblate`:
.. image:: /screenshots/support-discovery.webp
This opens the registration form on weblate.org and returns to your Weblate
management interface to complete activation with discovery already enabled.
The registration flow can be used from an account that has a support
subscription, but it registers the Discover Weblate listing; activating a
purchased support package is handled by :ref:`activate-support`.
Unlinking the support package disables the Discover Weblate listing.
All steps for listing a server manually, for example from older Weblate
versions:
1. Register yourself at https://weblate.org/user/
2. Register your Weblate site at https://weblate.org/subscription/discovery/
3. Copy the activation token into your Weblate management interface.
4. Confirm you want your Weblate listed by clicking
:guilabel:`Enable discovery` from the :guilabel:`Discover Weblate` panel:
