Creator Dashboard to replace the Develop Pages in early 2023

Activity DevEx Cashout lists process page (pending,rejected,success,etc) when?

Finally, glad to see the develop page get an update. What other pages on Roblox still use the old style like the develop page?

Some of the internal admin management pages still use this style.

Even though Iā€™m unaware of them Iā€™m certain that they do.

Thank god. The develop page is so buggy.

On another note, can we please have mass upload on new page?

Some nice QoL would be if

was a hyperlink so I do not have to manually go to my inventory

Edit: Oh and Videos do not seem to work at all, it just shows a thumbnail (with the wrong aspect ratio) and doesnā€™t let you play/preview them.

Will we be able to see how many sales/downloads plugins have recieved all time and within the last 7 days? I know its not super important but it does signal to me how important it is to update plugins if I know theyā€™re used by a lot of people vs little people.

My main concern I suppose is being able to do everything we used to be able to do on the old page, on the new page.

Why is roblox so insistent on having the monochrome color scheme?
Like why is the whole website black, gray, or white? I like the current develop page more in terms of design simply because it feels like it has more color (or at least doesnā€™t feel like permanent dark mode)

The roblox website from like 8 years ago use to have blue and red and that looked alot nicer and friendly.

Good. Iā€™m glad Roblox is getting better.

This will make it easier for developers to access everything on one website. But please make it easy to traverse through.

Yeah I agree. The new dev page is whatever the opposite of staring into the sun is, probably a black hole. I bet that when itā€™s viewed on an OLED display, itā€™s indistinguishable from just closing your eyes.

I beg for the love of god allow for .rbxm downloads here, mainly on models at least, everything that is free or owned at best, also allowing to download the .rbxl of old place versions, BTRoblox has done this, and really helps if we need to go back and quickly grab something,

Without having to

Bad Steps

Download a copy of the current studio instance
Close Roblox
Revert to an old version
Open it
Grab whatever and save it as an .rbxm
Go back and upload the backup file and then finally copy in whatever it is we needed.

Compare that to

Better Steps

Go to game page
Download place version needed
Open the download as a local file
Copy and paste in main studio instance
Close the local file

Iā€™m fairly excited for the full transition to the Creator Dashboard, I like the new documentation pages so Iā€™m sure Iā€™ll be happy about the new workflow design. I do agree with those above me in that if this lacks any vital functionality by the time you ā€˜sunsetā€™ the release, you might as well push it back.

There is no reason to throw a wrench in our workflow like what happened with the animation system update, please be considerate of whether ACTUAL DEVELOPERS that use your platform on a daily basis would be okay using it in the state you guys choose to push it out in

Hey all,

Thanks for the comments so far! The team reads every one of them, so this is always super helpful. I see some concerns around migrating final features before the sunset, which is reasonable - there is a reason weā€™re not sunsetting the old Develop pages already! Outstanding on our plate is:

  • Asset upload (which is just about to be rolled out)

  • Navigation links to Sponsored Ads and Advertisements (this will continue to be in the old place until we find a new home for it, but it will be accessible from Creator Dashboard in the meantime)

  • Game Passes showing more sales data (which is also just about to be rolled out)

Then as a final comment - weā€™re looking into light mode as a priority, but weā€™re not viewing this as a blocker to sunset the old Develop Pages, as the earlier we get everyone on Creator Dashboard, the earlier we can invest in one platform, and move much faster on it. Consider this a high priority follow up on our todo list.

Weā€™re continuing to write all the other feature requests and QOL improvements down to discuss, so feel free to keep them coming!

Thanks!

Are there any plans next year to address the lack of filtering and searching through assets, items, and experiences in the creator dashboard? For example, it takes longer to go through a a 100 images looking for the one named ā€œClockā€ just to get its id because there is no ability to search. More filtering could also be a powerful tool if you want to do something such as just looking at which items you have publicly on sale.

I know the post is right above this, but can this please come :pray:

Actually, it is somewhat possible. Iā€™ve done it before

A search bar for places (and assets in general) would make all our lives significantly easier. If anything, a search bar that skips filtering (as youā€™re only searching your own assets) would be even better as my username tends to randomly decide to filter depending on the day of the week.
Even if it says ā€œDisplaying results for #####ā€, so long as it still displays the results this would be very useful.
But if not just a search bar!!!

Adding on to this, I honestly find it a bit inconvenient having to click the back button or open a new tab (or search Roblox again) when I try to return to Roblox after browsing the marketplace and dashboard.

We have been through this multiple times already. Where is the search function?!
