The Name Game Pro Tip:
  1. Didja accidentally blow through the whole, "We're using our real names" thing on registration? No problem, just send me (Mike) a Conversation message and I'll get you sorted, by which I mean hammered-into-obedient-line because I'm SO about having a lot of individuality-destroying, oppressive shit all over my forum.

Easier access to content?

    A terrible thread title, but I can't think of what would describe what I'm thinking of. If someone has a better idea for it, go ahead and change it!

    My idea was this: since this is kind of Verta-central, and we're all logged in with our real names, talking about Verta videos, and it's the platform for upcoming content - maybe we could use all that information to let us get easier access to the videos, without having to go back into the emails to look up the access codes?

    I suppose it would probably be a PITA for the Vimeo stuff that's already up, and requiring people to join the forum to have access to things they already bought would be kind of douche-y, but is there a way to put the old content up on this forum directly, and then have access to it just with our profile? It would make it way easier to just log in here and watch, and I confess that I haven't looked in any of the specific content forums, because I'd have to look up the codes in my e-mails, and my laziness has exceeded my curiosity each time.

    I was just thinking of going into my e-mails to look up a password to watch something and thought "wouldn't it be cool if..."!

    That would require at the minimum a thing where members profiles contained a dynamically-updated record of what they'd purchased, which seems to me would also require the entire payment and purchasing part to be integrated or connected... all of which sounds distinctly above Xenforo's pay grade, but I could be wrong...?

    I'd take a Verta-cally updated record manually put in from paypal receipts if it meant I didn't have to pull up and go through my e-mails when I wanted to watch one of the videos!

    That's pretty good - Verta-cally. You should use that!

    Well if you are willing to go through the process manually, you can just paste the links to your purchased videos into a HTML file on your PC for easy access.

    What if there was a form somewhere in the user settings with the list of the classes and then entering the password there would unlock it for infinite viewing?
