Seriously - Can We Please Have A Gallery?... Please?... Seriously?

[agentredgirl]

I am going to keep this very simple and short. As a content creator, we need an UNMISTAKABLE, UNAVOIDABLE, SIMPLE, EASY TO SEE, EASY TO USE, GALLERY to share our completed content.

Our users should be able to view all of our content in 1 easy to FIND and easy to USE place. Please. This is such a simple and necessary thing to have for a content creator. Imagine joining to support a creator and having to scroll through pages upon pages of stuff just to find the content? (PINNED messages are a CUTE bandaid but NOT a solution).

Here is an example of where and how you can put it. Please, lets get this implemented ASAP.

Here are some links to other creators asking for this or something similar:

Gallery view for visual artists (as opposed to infinite scroll)

Literally, for years, myself and MANY other creators have asked for a Gallery feature. I can show you hundreds of screenshots of exit surveys saying “too hard to find content”. EDIT: I can also show you many posts on this same forum from long ago where creators have asked for this feature. This cant be that hard. Its just a folder where we can stick content. That’s it. Please, just give us a big fat, impossible to miss, GALLERY where we can post completed content for our subscribers. Please. …

Ability to add image link tabs to Cover Photo

Hello, can you guys allow us to have this kind of feature to our Cover photo. Or at least allow this portion to be modified by html editor. I am Struggling on how to make the patrons aware of my previous releases. I think this can help the patreon creators a lot. please check this image: [image]

Please [INFINITE SCROLLING] Do a Display contents as GRID / Thumbnails / List

I’m very frustrated as Creator because my patrons can’t have a good experience about seeing my contents… the patreon needs urgently an Update how the contents are displayed, like, Grid as thumbnails or List I’m losing many patrons because they can’t even watch the first tutorials posted… I mean, what on earth they will scroll down forever to see my old posts? since it’s only video tutorials? look here below one of my Exit survey reply… “its insane… i dont understand his platform … the cate…

I need a content calendar and bulk post management

I use scheduling heavily to keep a steady flow of stuff coming out even when I don’t feel like doing anything. Unfortunately, this is painfully slow even before considering the general slowness of the post editor. I have to open multiple new post pages, scroll around each to set common values (like tags), work through the intrusive pop-ins yelling at me about needing an image as I try to change it to a scheduled post, etc. What would help this is a way to select multiple days from a calendar an…

What's your biggest Patreon pain point?

Content creators need a GALLERY link so our supporters can quickly and easily access our works. This is a gigantic miss by Patreon. Please, get this implemented ASAP.

Menu or better category links

Hi, please don’t merge this to get lost inside another thread - this in important for the future of Patreon. You have been suggesting we use Patreon as a membership site and I can see that is the way forward. But, I’m reluctant to make the effort needed if there is no way to direct members or patrons to particular content, other than doing contortions with the categories tabs. 5 categories in the side margin are not enough and the blurred brown images of pooh are not exactly professional or ap…

Ditto! Long overdue.

Hi @agentredgirl, thank you collecting all of this feedback into one place. Like I mentioned on Discord, I’ve brought this feedback to the team. I’m unable to guarantee it will result in a change, but it’s important for us to hear feedback like this and I appreciate you sharing it.

[artbyemilyhare]

Yeah I have been wanting this for a long time, along with the choice to search through old posts as thumbnails, not endless scrolling.

[agentredgirl]

Got another Patreon today complaining about how difficult it is to find content =)

[JhonSSilva]

It’s time to talk with the Jack Conte, CEO’s Patreon by commenting on his video because seriously guys…

How many request should we do if we are not being listened?
My god guys, I work really hard to bring people to patreon… to have such frustration at display content.

It’s so obvious that the Scrolling infinite experience is annoying, try by yourself to look older posts… (do not tell me about the tag, it’s bad)

we have different type of creators and medias, videos, images and text. You guys already have this UI system in the POSTS / Dashboard Section creator tab.

I will try to e-mail some one higher on the staff directly, because this forum seems to be useless

Ditto. We produce comic pages every month with the process work and creator commentary, and there’s no reasonable way to organize these pages. I’m looking for a gallery that can be displayed right away for new and returning patrons and allows for easy navigation between posts within that gallery. In my case, I would organize my comic pages into a gallery which the patrons can then read one page at a time with all the additional material and also post comments per page.

This is a basic need for both patrons and creators.

Hi all - just wanted to link this response from our product team lead:

Gallery view for visual artists (as opposed to infinite scroll)

Hello all! My name is Ursula and I lead the product teams focused on the fan and patron experience at Patreon. We deeply appreciate you taking the time to share your experience; the collective feedback from all our creators and patrons helps us identify how to best improve our product. We definitely heard from patrons about the difficulty in finding benefits and earlier this year we introduced a membership page that summarizes benefits, improved the filter functionality on the post page, and add…

Thank you again for providing your thoughts and feedback. We’ll absolutely let you know when we have an update.

When a feature which is useful and common to other sites has been requested for years, and the response is platitudes, that indicates a lack of concern for creators and Patrons. I’m sure there are technical challenges, but Patreon has had years to solve them. This feature request ought to be a top priority.

A.M.E.N

I really don’t understand why such a basic feature has been ‘put asside’ or ‘down on the To DO list’ for SUCH a long time. Are there any reasons that in ANY way explain why you would choose not to implement a galerie into patreon? I mean… the pictures are uploaded anyway, so ‘space’ can’t be the issue.

[agentredgirl]

Reyna If your product team needs ANY idea on how and where and WHAT the gallery should look like, please reach out to me. I will happily provide examples. However, the MOST IMPORTANT THING is that the Gallery is SUPER EASY TO FIND! Look at the picture I posted in the first message in this thread.

We just need a BIG FAT BUTTON that says Gallery. That is impossible to miss. You can allow us to customize the look/picture for the button but thats what we want. a Big… fat… button!
