-When you add an index.html file (along with any static files such as images, CSS etc) and share it under 'Website Mode', then your site will be viewable on the Tor network as an onion service as the actual website itself (not as an OnionShare interface). The onion service will render HTML in Tor Browser just like any other website.
+\fBWebsite Mode\fPOnionShare allows you to publish a website as an onion service. When selecting the files to share, make sure you select multiple files in a folder if you want the entire directory to be published as a website. When the directory contains an index.html file (along with any static files such as images, CSS etc), then the site will be viewable on the Tor network as an onion service as the actual website itself (not as an OnionShare interface). The onion service will render HTML in Tor Browser just like any other website. If you don't have an index.html, OnionShare will show a directory listing of your files instead. In directory listing, each file can be opened, and there is no download button for the compressed archive. OnionShare does not share your original website files. Instead, it creates a copy of those files in a temporary folder and shares those copies.

 \fBAutomatic start and stop\fP The auto-start timer allows you to schedule a share to start at some time in the future.
