Your Gumroad profile
Your profile is your Gumroad home base. You can use it to introduce yourself to your audience with a profile picture and bio and grow your following by collecting email addresses.
Your profile is located at [username].gumroad.com where [username] is replaced with your unique username. You can also get there by clicking on your name and then the Profile button on the Gumroad navigation.
This is also where you showcase your work once you have added products for sale. You can reorder them or hide them from view right from the profile page.
Set up your profile
Go to the profile settings to update the public-facing information for your customers to read, including a short bio (we’ve found that a sentence or two works best rather than overly-long descriptions of your entire career path).
You can also connect your X/Twitter account which will be linked with an icon on the profile page.
Create pages and sections
You can have multiple pages on your profile, and each page can contain multiple sections, helping you categorize your products and posts effectively.
Click on the three-dot menu and select New page to get started. On each page, you can click the + icon at the bottom to create a new section containing either products or posts to be displayed on your profile.
You can rename and reorder your pages from the three-dot menu as well.
Product sections
On a given product section, click the three-dot menu on the left to assign a name and select the products you want it to contain. You can choose whether to display the section's name or not, and automatically add any new products to a section (enabled by default on new sections).
When you're done, just click outside the box to save your changes!
Sort your products
You can manually set the order of your products, or you can set a default sort by price, rating, or recency.
To set a custom order, click Products, select your Default sort order as ‘Custom’, and drag the products by selecting the 6 dots on the left side.
Let customers filter your products
Product filters help customers organize and easily explore your products as they browse. Your products can be filtered by rating and the types of files they contain. If you do not want your customers to see the filters, you can turn them off by toggling 'Show product filters'.
Note: Filters are disabled while editing to ensure you can see all the selected products. You can test them out after logging out from your account, or in a different browser/incognito window.
Posts sections
Adding a Posts section will display all eligible emails that you’ve posted on your profile.
Customize fonts and colors
Choose from different font styles, accents, and background colors from your profile settings. These settings won’t affect your product’s content, just the profile, product, and post pages and emails.
