Is there a way to set a title free for a certain amount of time, and then have it be paid for a certain amount?
Say for example, I want to have each new release set to be free for the first two weeks it's out, and then after that, each release is like $3.99. How would I go about doing that?
To clarify before I answer, are you wanting to have folks read the release online for 3.99 or buy the PDF for 3.99?

The recommendation that I have is to set your work up for PDF sales and place it behind the GlobalComix Gold Paywall. That way, they can choose to either use the subscription to read, which you'll get part of that revenue, or they can purchase the PDF download to be able to access your release.
You can apply the PDF at any time. So what you will need to do is:
1. Mark your series as paid in licensing settings.
2. When you publish your release, you can set your pages to free manually.
3. After the 2-week timeline, you will need to turn off free pages manually in your release editor
4. Then set up the PDF download in your PDF settings. I have an article on that process here: https://globalcomix.com/news/details/457/creator-tips-and-tricks-setting-up-pdf-sales-and-bundles
Hope this helps.
