Assets
Posts, messages & tips
Publish posts for your members, sell pay-per-view posts and bundles, message members one to one or all at once, and track tips.
Basics
Creating a post
Posts make up the feed on your creator page. To write one, open a project in Assets, choose Membership → Posts in the sidebar, then New post.
- Title, Teaser and Body: the teaser shows to everyone; the body and media show only to fans who can see the post.
- Media: images, video, audio or files from the project's library. Several show as a carousel, and the first is the cover.
- Who can see it: Public, All members (the default), Minimum tier, or Pay-per-view.
- Minimum tier: for a tier post, the lowest tier that sees it.
- Unlock price (USD): for a pay-per-view post, the price to unlock it. It's required, and starts at 5.00.
- Status: Draft (the default), Published or Archived.
- Pin to top: pinned posts lead the feed.
Choose Create post. Members are the people who join your creator page; see Membership.
Posts
Managing posts
The post list on Posts shows each post's access, status, engagement, unlocks and publish date. The figures across the top count Posts, Members-only posts (with how many are public), PPV unlocks and PPV revenue.
Each row's ⋯ menu has these actions:
- Edit: change anything about the post.
- Comments: read the post's comments, reply as the creator, or delete a comment. Fans who can see a post can comment on it.
- Publish or Archive, and Pin to top or Unpin.
- Delete: removes the post straight away, without asking.
Fans who can't see a post get its teaser, with the body and media locked. A suspended member sees only public posts.
Inbox
Messaging members
Membership → Inbox is your one-to-one chat with members. The figures across the top count Conversations, Unread ones, Locked DMs and DM revenue.
- To start a conversation, choose New message, pick the Member and choose Open conversation. Or click an existing conversation.
- Write your message.
- Optional: attach a file from the library and set an Unlock price, so the member pays to see it.
- Choose Send.
Members read and reply from the inbox on your creator page, and their replies land here. A locked message stays locked for them until they pay.
Paid Messages
Paid messages
Membership → Paid Messages sends a locked message to one member or to everyone at once. Choose New message.
- Audience: all members, with the Mass DM option, or one member.
- Message: required.
- Unlock price (USD): what members pay to unlock it, or 0 for a free message.
Choose Send PPV message. It appears in the recipients' inbox on your creator page. A mass message reaches the members who had joined when you sent it.
The list shows each message's audience, lock price, status (Draft, Locked, Unlocked or Expired) and when it was sent. The figures across the top count Paid messages, Mass drops, how many were Unlocked, and their Locked value.
Bundles
Bundles
A bundle sells several pay-per-view posts together at one price. To create one, choose Membership → Bundles, then New bundle.
- Title, and a Description shown on the bundle card to everyone.
- Cover: an image from the project's library.
- Bundle price (USD).
- The posts it includes. Only pay-per-view posts count toward the unlock; others can be included for context.
- On sale: whether fans can buy it now.
Choose Create bundle. Buying a bundle unlocks every pay-per-view post in it. Pause sales takes a bundle off your page, and buyers keep what they unlocked; Put on sale brings it back. The figures across the top count Bundles, Sales, Revenue and the Avg discount against buying the posts one by one.
Tips
Tips
Membership → Tips lists every tip fans have sent, with the tipper, the amount, what they tipped, such as a post, a message or your profile, its status and the date. It's a read-only record. The figures across the top include Tip revenue and the Avg tip; filter by what was tipped.
A tip's status is Pending, Succeeded or Refunded. Fans tip from your creator page, where you set whether tips are on, the minimum and up to four suggested amounts, in the creator page's Settings tab. See Membership.
