Here’s a handy pro tip for people running Patreon campaigns. If you’re like many of us, you love Patreon, but many aspects of navigating the Creator Feed are… lacking. And you want better for your backers. So — once their payments have processed — you send out a link to a Dropbox folder so your backers can access the exclusive content outside of Patreon’s clunky interface.

Of course, once that link is out there, anyone could use it to access that content. And that’s a little troubling.

This pro tip is for you.

The content you are trying to access is only available to members.
