What can my users find on the updated Profile > Purchased Content tab?
The updated User Profile, found at https://www.YOURDOMAIN.com/user/profile when the user is logged in, now contains a tab called Purchased Content. It contains a wealth of features that will be useful to you and your readers.
The tab holds
- links to all of the reader's purchased downloadable files,
- links to purchased premium content on your site, and,
- in the case of purchased audio or video files,
- the ability to play those files from the website on-demand.
We've given you the ability to control a number of items on this page with regard to layout and messaging.
As with the other User/Profile tabs, the sidebar can be turned on or off.
