Membership Hub Overview
The Membership Hub is your day-to-day workspace for one membership program. After fans join, you publish posts, answer messages, attach courses, schedule live sessions, and manage members — all from a single dark, desktop-friendly screen.
Creator plan requiredYou need Creator or above. Each program has its own hub.

How the Hub fits with Studio and Fan Hub
Flo splits membership work across three places:
| Place | You use it to… |
|---|---|
| Membership Hub (this guide) | Run the community — posts, DMs, classroom, live, member list |
| Membership Studio (Edit tiers on the programs list) | Build tiers, prices, and benefit bullets — Create a tier |
| Fan Hub (Dashboard → Fan Hub) | Brand how the member portal looks after login — Fan Hub overview |
Fans join on your join page and spend time in the portal (posts, classroom, billing). You operate the program from the Hub.
Open the Hub
Go to Memberships
Dashboard → Memberships in the sidebar under Monetize.
Pick your program
Click the card for the membership you want to manage.
Open hub
Click Open hub on that card.
The address looks like /dashboard/memberships/[your-program-id]. The hub opens on the Community tab by default.
From the hub you can return to all programs with ← Back to memberships in the top bar.
Screen layout
| Area | What it does |
|---|---|
| Top bar | Shows program name and status (Active, Draft, or Archived). Settings opens the settings panel. View live opens the member portal preview in a new tab. |
| Left navigation | Switches between hub sections (Community, Messages, Classroom, and more). |
| Main area | The active tab’s tools and content. |
| Bottom of nav | Settings and Preview portal — same actions as the top bar. |
Desktop recommended
Flo shows Community Hub works best on desktop at the top of the main area. Posting with images and video is disabled on small screens — use a wide browser window for composing.

|---|---|---|
| Community | Available | Member feed, stats, and publishing — Community overview |

| Members | Available | Search, filter, export, and manage members — Members |

Community tab (home)
This is where most creators spend their time.
Stats across the top
Four cards summarize the program:

|---|---|

The right sidebar repeats Members, New / mo, and MRR, plus your public link (myflo.link/yourname).
Publish a post
Click Share something with your members… to open the composer.

| Category | Organize posts (categories are managed in Settings → General) |

| Archived | Retired — cannot reactivate from this toggle |

Preview portal / View live
View live (top bar) and Preview portal (left nav) open the member-facing portal in a new tab — the same experience fans see after joining, including your selected membership.
Use this to check posts, classroom items, and join flow without leaving the dashboard.

Troubleshooting
| Issue | What to try |
|---|---|
| Cannot compose posts on phone | Use a desktop browser — composer is locked on narrow screens |
| Calendar / About tab empty | Those nav items are placeholders — use Live or Settings → About |
| Member cannot see a course | Classroom — check All tiers vs tier-only scope |
| Post hidden from some members | Open post → audience — may be limited to one tier |
| Unread Messages badge stuck | Open Messages and read threads — badge updates from inbox state |
| Settings changes not on public page | Set program to Active and Update live on your Flo page |
| No members in hub yet | Publish Membership block and share your myflo.link URL |
