# How to edit an invite after sending it

You can use a link manager to create a short, friendly URL that points to your longer VDO.Ninja invite. Later, you edit the target behind the short link instead of sending everyone a new invite.

[invite.cam](https://invite.cam/) can encode or shorten VDO.Ninja links, and signed-in short-link management can be used where the invite.cam shortener service is enabled. Third-party URL managers, such as [Short.io](https://short.io), can also work well for aliases, visit counts, and changing an invite after it has already been sent.

[VDO.Ninja](https://vdo.ninja) lets you move guests between rooms and change the URL of a guest after they have connected, but a link manager is the better tool when you want to change a link before the user has connected.

{% hint style="info" %}
A short link does not by itself make a guest's OBS source persistent. For that, give the guest a stable stream ID with [`&push`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/push.md), use [`&permaid`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/and-permaid.md), or use scenes/slots. See [Permanent links, reusable invites, and stream IDs](/guides/how-to-get-permanent-links.md).
{% endhint %}
