Patreon Integration

[Ed]

This is taking a LOT of work and won’t be finished for days (possibly weeks!), but things seem to be progressing well.

I’m slowly building a Patreon page here:

https://patreon.com/NakedExperimentCommunity

 

All nudity/videos etc. will ONLY be here on the community site. News, articles etc. will be vary between being posted here and on Patreon. Some things will end up in both places.

The main complication I’m up against is what to do with existing Community Supporters. We don’t have any new ones, so I’m going to assume existing supporters have already seen all the exclusive content.

Yep this works.

Signed up but when I try and sign in with patreon it says auth not received. Guess it’ll take time to come through

[Ed]

I don’t have any experience yet of how it works. I assumed if you are logged into your Patreon account then you will be able to see the Patreon-locked content on the site.

This transition is going to take a while.

I’ve corrected all the videos in the blog and converted 14 of the Vimeo posts from the Community Supporters’ forum. It’s going to take a few days to convert the rest. I’ve made a few tweaks to the forums but there’s a huge amount of work to do there.

Right now, I’m attempting to convert the Inspiration and bonus content. Please be patient, this is not going to be quick. I am no longer allowing Community Supporter Signups via the old system.

The badges for Community Supporters will be ending soon as there’s no practical way to maintain synchronisation.

I may have underestimated how much work there is to do. 🙁

[Ed]

I’ve transferred all the “Is this Art?” videos from the Community Supporter forum into the blog. Now I’ve got to sort out all the inspiration stuff, the other videos and some other things. I’m looking to add a fair bit more content too for supporters.

It’s taking time, but I think it’s worth it.

What price does everyone see for this site on Patreon?

I’ve been saying $4 (because it won’t let me choose £) but I don’t know if that includes VAT or not.

I see:

£3.50 / month plus VAT

and

2 patrons £6 per month

But the worry is that if the site is processing the payment in dollars, the actual charge might vary from day to day and/or a currency conversion surcharge might be factored in somewhere.

That’s why I quote $4 (The price Patreon shows me) wherever I mention it.  I’ve contacted Patreon to see if they can ungrey the currency button.
