The new fan view of your creator page is being rolled out to a select group of creators through our early access programme. We’re continuing to expand access gradually – stay tuned as we roll this out to more creators over time.
If you’re part of our early access group, you may notice that your creator page looks different. That’s because you now have access to the new creator page experience. This update gives you more control over how your work is displayed and offers fans a more engaging way to explore everything you offer.
This article walks you through what’s new, how to customise your page and what fans will see when they visit.
What’s new
This updated creator page features a refreshed design and new tools that make it easier to showcase your work and help fans connect with it faster.
Some key features of your updated creator page:
-
Home tab as your new landing page:
Fans now arrive on a curated Home tab instead of your chronological post feed -
Adjust visual branding options:
Add a larger cover photo and choose an accent colour to better reflect your creative identity. -
Customisable content shelves:
Reorganise the way your content is displayed and highlight what matters most – from recent posts to featured collections, podcasts and top shop items.
This new experience helps fans quickly understand the value of your Patreon, making it easier for them to explore, engage and join.
Your default layout
When fans visit your page, they’ll land on the Home tab – a curated overview of your work. This is the default layout, designed to help fans quickly explore and engage with your content.
Here’s what the default layout includes (in order):
- Latest post: Your most recent post
- Recent posts: A scrollable view of more recent posts
- Collections (1–2): If you’ve created collections, up to two shelves will appear
- Popular posts: Your most popular posts, weighted by recency
- All collections: Appears if you have more than two collections
- Popular products: Top-selling items from your shop
- Explore more: A dynamic list of additional popular posts
This layout is just a starting point. You can customise it – reorder, remove or replace content shelves – to best reflect your creative vision.
Customising your creator page
To customise your creator page, go to the Home tab from the left-hand menu and click the Edit Page button in the top-right corner. This opens your editing panel, where you can adjust both the look and structure of your page.
Note: Customisation is currently available on desktop only.
From here, you can customise two key areas:
- Your page settings – Personalise your page with branding, profile details and visibility options
- Content shelves – Customise the layout of your page
Each of these options helps you shape how fans experience your page – and reflect your creative identity more clearly.
