Livery Inventory while being a Vendor

Hi Flightsim.to team,

I hope you’re doing well. I’m both a livery uploader (freeware) and a vendor (selling scenery). I’ve discovered a bug/UX issue that is impacting how users find my content:

  1. Profile redirection issue

    • When someone clicks my profile via one of my freeware livery uploads, they are taken to my vendor store page.

    • However, that store page only shows my paid (vendor) items. It does not include my freeware liveries.

    • Therefore, users who want to see all my uploads (both freeware and paid) have no way to browse my freeware list from that link; they must manually search for my user name.

    • Before I became a vendor, clicking my profile from a livery properly showed all my liveries. Now the redirection seems to “favor” the vendor store page, but that breaks the visibility of freeware content.

  2. Banner / header image missing / not showing

    • I previously had a banner / header image set for my profile (while I was just a livery uploader).

    • That banner is still present in my settings, but it does not show anywhere now that I’m a vendor.

    • If vendor profiles are supposed to support banners/headers, that seems to be broken or disabled. If they are not supposed to, perhaps it should be documented (or the option greyed out) so users aren’t confused.

  3. Suggested behavior / fix

    • Ideally, clicking a user’s profile from any upload should lead to a combined profile page (freeware + paid) or at least a toggle/view to see both sets.

    • The profile page should clearly offer a way to view freeware uploads even when the user is a vendor.

    • Banner/header support should remain or be reinstated for vendor profiles, or at least the interface should reflect whether it’s supported or not.

If helpful, I can provide screenshots showing the redirect and missing banner. Please let me know if more info is needed (usernames, sample links, etc.). Thank you for your time and for the platform — I hope this helps improve the experience for creators and users alike.
