Hey creators! We need your Suggestions!

How frequently would you say that you use the creator dashboard? (Give us your best guesstimate!)

Daily, even when I am not posting an update.

What do you primarily use it for? (Do you like to see how your story is doing on a daily basis, check out how that inkage you’ve collected, or reply to your supporters?)

I check to see if there are any new comments on my comic or my novel (which requires me to log in separately due to the novel being a premium book.) I also check to see if I can cash out tips because I am pretty strapped for cash. @_@

And, most importantly, what kinds of improvements and/or features would you like to see in the future?

It would be great if there was some way to access the dashboard through the cellphone app. I'd love to have a quick way to see if there were any new comments on there without checking each individual page of my comic or novel.

How frequently would you say that you use the creator dashboard?
It's the page I've bookmarked for accessing Tapas, so I open it daily. But I'd say I only actually use it every few days - most of the time I am just checking for notifications which could be seen on the home page also.

What do you primarily use it for?
Uploading episodes, replying to supporters' comments, occasionally looking at stats and such.

And, most importantly, what kinds of improvements and/or features would you like to see in the future?

• a more convenient and organized way of viewing and replying to comments on episodes
• the ability to insert and change the order of episodes in a series
• notifications reaching mobile users (I've heard a lot that they don't but personally only use Tapas on desktop so idk)
• supporters getting notified when you reply to their support messages seems like a good idea although personally I don't really mind either way

How frequently would you say that you use the creator dashboard?

Not very often, just casually to check if I can unlock ad revenue

What do you primarily use it for?

Help center, learning about ink, and sometimes checking stats.

And, most importantly, what kinds of improvements and/or features would you like to see in the future?

I would love to see features or tools where creators can boost exposure! In all honesty, popularity or chances of getting your comics + novels seen rely on views, likes, comments etc. There should be a way for creators to boost themselves too. Have it so when you slow down in posts, you are less likely to show up on the main page than a creator who is consistent with their comics! Tapas Streaks would be brilliant (and different from the 'Fresh' tab on desktop where new episodes come in).

The dashboard could also be more intuitive on mobile, (maybe phone uploads for creators!)

Just humble ideas. I love Tapas and want to grow right along with it!

I look at the creator dashboard more than the homepage, that's how much I use it

and for Improvements
would love a batch upload episodes option, I would have almost 13 episodes made and having to manually add one by one those episodes and schedule each one was a pain, also a save setting on the time I want to upload would be great since I believe most creators have a set time of when they will upload the episode

How frequently would you say that you use the creator dashboard?
almost daily, but very frequently after I post
What do you primarily use it for? (Do you like to see how your story is doing on a daily basis, check out how that inkage you’ve collected, or reply to your supporters?)
Mostly to check stats and to see if certain updates had better reception than others.
And, most importantly, what kinds of improvements and/or features would you like to see in the future?
We’re all ears!
I'd love some mobile integration since you have an app. Being able to check stats on the go would be very nice.

Idk, tabs for [specifically] exploring things that could be deemed more niche. Like things that are just more niche on the sight specifically. I'd honestly like to see newer, more interesting projects get attention more than they get right now. You know, ones with artstyles that aren't just the typical manwha artstyle or I'd just like to see more comics that are experimental or weird. Or just a second and third genre selection so people know what they're getting.

How frequently would you say that you use the creator dashboard?
2-3 times a day

What do you primarily use it for? (Do you like to see how your story is doing on a daily basis, check out how that inkage you’ve collected, or reply to your supporters?)

To see a status report of the number of views, likes, and subscribers per episode per series

And, most importantly, what kinds of improvements and/or features would you like to see in the future?
We’re all ears!
It'd be much appreciated if there was a way to see which particular subscribers liked an episode on the mobile app, and also to gain recognition of lesser known comics or updated series by posting them on the trending menu of the website.

1) I use the dashboard often. Every time I’m reading on my computer, I would look at it at least once. (I’m on everyday whether on the app or computer)
2) check how my stories are doing and how audience engagement is doing.
3)I’d love to be able to access the dashboard on the app.

I use the dashboard almost daily, when I log in, but it lacks a total number of views and just shows daily stuff, which is less important to me.

• Fix italics in the Novels so it's not an inline element CSS shortcut.
• On the main series dashboard show total number of views, likes and subscribers. This information is not viewable on the Dashboard currently; only Daily is noted.
• Reliably show the date of when the series was first posted, and most recent update.
• Allow users to sort the series on their dashboard, not as comic or novel, but by customer numbers of priority the User themselves set.
• Split the Performance section into two different windows, series with lots of chapters/uploads loading on the same page as the graph itself makes it too long of a page needlessly.

How frequently would you say that you use the creator dashboard? almost never
What do you primarily use it for? check engagement.
And, most importantly, what kinds of improvements and/or features would you like to see in the future?
-I would like to be able to access it through mobile. It would make many things super easier.
-Also, I would like to be able to put images on novels to make them a bit more like light novels.
-To edit one page, I would like to be able to drag the page to a trash can and add the correct one to its place without having to replace everything.

Hi!

I've always wanted to provide a feedback when asked.

How frequently would you say that you use the creator dashboard? (Give us your best guesstimate!)
Every week before I upload, I check my dashboard

What do you primarily use it for? (Do you like to see how your story is doing on a daily basis, check out how that inkage you’ve collected, or reply to your supporters?)
I use it for progress status

And, most importantly, what kinds of improvements and/or features would you like to see in the future?
AVOID COUNTING CREATORS AS A READ/PAGE VIEW. I noticed that when I visit my own work, my read count. I really wished it would stop doing that. I wouldn't want to find out that the views on my works are mostly mine (so to avoid that, I avoid clicking per episode)

So far, that's about what I can contribute. I would probably revise this once I'm able to think of something else.

Thanks for the opportunity

How frequently - Every time I log in to Tapas so every couple of days!
How do I use - I only really use the series tab, as a way to access my series and see what feedback it has.
Improvements - I dont really like seeing the red number of how much my views have gone down from the previous day ;w; Those analytics dont seem helpful to me but thats potentially because I am very nervous of getting sucked into the mindset of trying my best to please above everything else. Maybe a way of seeing if you've lost subscribers though? Because sometimes I THINK my sub count has gone down but I cant be sure as theres no way of telling. Mostly though I think it would be useful to be able to see all the comments from a series in one place so I dont have to scroll through my whole comic to respond to people, and add a like comment feature!!!

Another improvement I just thought of;
If possible, stats on what sort of age group are reading the comics!! I think this is vital for remaining responsible as a creator

I second this, it's a great idea!

How frequently would you say that you use the creator dashboard?
About as often as I post comics, three times a week.

What do you primarily use it for?
To check views/likes, stats, ink collection, or to see if anyone's commented or subscribed.

And, most importantly, what kinds of improvements and/or features would you like to see in the future?

Series Index:

• Thumbnail view for each Series, with simplified views/likes/subs underneath with the edit icon.

• Automatic or optional sorting of Novels/Comics (comics->novels / novels->comics)

• Optional category creation for a series, for grouping a selection of comics or novels by franchise/setting/characters like folders. (Could be labeled as 'Comic' Folder, 'Novel' Folder, or be mixed). This would help creators who create both daily strips and longform stories, and would like to attend to them separately. Or, creators who have both types of comics of the same series and would like them to appear together for fans on their Series List to avoid confusion.

• Optional sorting the series list by overall subscibers/performance.

Episode List:

• Optional thumbnail view for pages (with an edit icon in the corner of the image)

Series Overview (Mobile):

• Custom Ad banners, or custom links, appear after the synopsis in the Details Tab.

Additional Ideas:

• Mobile dashboard for creators on-the-go or without desktop/laptop computers, who use of cloud file storage for uploading, or who create their comics on a different device than they use to track comments/subscriptions.

• Mobile creator newsfeed, in case the creators want to reach their userbase for promotions/special events without asking them to log on to a desktop, or use the mobile browser (which always prompts to switch to the app).

• Mobile forums (currently, if the user is attempting to login on a mobile device while the Tapas app is installed, the device will switch over without logging the forum user in.)

• Patreon integration.

Each two weeks, and during that week I use it from 3 to 5 days guesstimated.

I use it for update my comic and the rest of the days for see the statistics for know if more people is watching it.

-The option of can change one page of place. Normally I have to upload again all the pages of one chapter again when I make a change instead just upload the updated page and change it from place.
-Dashboard compatible with touch. The past year my notebook died and I don’t have money for a new one, so I do all my comic things in my tablet.

Thank you for read!

I use it once or twice a week, most often the day I update and another day during the week to check how the month is going.

I mostly use it to track interest, check what's growing and how and see what I can do to keep some form of momentum. I tend to use the monthly tabs more than the daily ones, because the daily ones update at a weird time for me. I guess it's a timezone thing?

So that's what I'd change if I could, I'd want to be able to track recent likes more easily on older chapters instead of having them all piled together and having to guess in the list. Maybe just adding a + sign with the number of likes/comments gained per chapter in the box under the graph?
I would also like it if I could set the daily update to a specific timezone, unless that already exists and I just haven't figured it out.

How frequently would you say that you use the creator dashboard? Three/Four times a week.
What do you primarily use it for? I like to see how my story is doing.
And, most importantly, what kinds of improvements and/or features would you like to see in the future? How many people visualize my comic in general and for each page, when (days, time tables), how they ended up there (search or what).
