ICYMI: Bulk post editing, creator recs, improved free member insights & more

Hey everyone! It’s Cat here from the Patreon product team to share the latest product features, improvements, and fixes to make your day-to-day on Patreon easier. We’ll be sharing a rundown like this every month. If you want to be notified when we do, join for free below.

Creation improvements

📝 Bulk edit posts

The ability to bulk/batch edit posts is one of the most frequent quality-of-life requests we get (we heard you, Steven!). Instead of editing each individual post, you can now save time by editing them all at once — whether it be to update tier access, update or delete tags, or simply delete a group of posts.

To get started, head to your Library tab in the left menu of your creator account, select the posts you want to edit, and begin making changes.

📝 Easily link past posts in new ones

Now you have a seamless way to link a post within another post on desktop and mobile. You can use this function to remind members of something from the archives, let free members know about new posts available if they upgrade to paid, or cross-promote a post from another creator. Just create a link post and paste the Patreon post link you'd like to share.

More ways for fans to discover you

🗣️ Recommend your favorite creators

Word of mouth is one of the most effective ways to grow on Patreon. And our research has found that fans trust the taste of creators they subscribe to. So we’ve made it easy for you to spread the word about your favorite creators right on Patreon, where you can feature them on the Recommendations tab of your page for members to explore. Creators you recommend get notified and can recommend you back. To see this in action, check out Digital Spaghetti's recommended creators.

(This feature is available to all creators, though only All Ages creators can be recommended.)

Free membership improvements

📈 See free-to-paid upgrades in Insights

With over 30 million new free memberships on Patreon over the last year, there’s a huge opportunity to convert your free members into paying members. Now your Membership dashboard shows the number of free-to-paid conversions, aggregately and for each tier, so you can clearly see how free members are contributing to your paid membership growth. Check out your stats on the Insights page.

💬 Free members have entered the chat (plus, email verification and temporary muting)

You can now open up your chats for every member (free and paid) so they can experience and participate more deeply in your community. Just set the audience to ‘All Members’ (the default selection when you create a new chat). We also want you and all fans to feel safe in chats, so you, teammates, and moderators will be able to mute a given member from sending or reacting to messages for 24 hours.

That's all from me this month! To be notified about future product news and tips on getting the most out of Patreon, join for free below.👇🏽
