This is a small one.
As it stands right now, the Privacy & Settings option in the Account menu goes to Order History instead of Privacy. I propose that the Privacy & Settings option goes to "Privacy" in the settings menu, and that a new item is added to the Account menu called "Order History" that links to the Order History section.

The way it is now is very confusing for members trying to change their privacy settings, or users looking for their order history through the menu.

Agreed, and voted.

It never made any sense to me to have the Orders History under "Privacy & Settings" (it's completely out of place as it's no account setting), nor for the primary link of "Privacy & Settings" to go to the Orders History.
Absolutely, don't understand why they made it in the current state anyway... Also the whole "your profile" doesn't exactly make it any less confusing either.

On many other sites they use either my profile or my site/space f.ex.

Voted.

I don't think the answer is to redirect to privacy nor add a new item IMHO.

They should just change the "Privacy & settings" entry to "Settings". And then just redirect to ACCOUNT & LOCALE.

- or -

Change "Privacy & settings" to "Settings & Order history". And that's it.

No need to create anything new. Just some minor tweaks, that's all.

Just my 2 cents. ;)

Still, changes need to be made. It's small, but It is confusing to new users.

Yeah, I totally agree on that.

It’s odd, considering that the account submenu in Galaxy has an item named “Orders”, which gives you exactly that—an order history. I didn’t pay attention the last time I was on the website, and I haven’t checked my orders there for a long while. Does the website handle this account menu differently?

See Attached for the PC GOG Account menu..
EDIT: It is the same on mobile on both the forum and the website.

That’s interesting. Compare it to my attachment showing the Account menu in Galaxy.

I guess it’s just another item on the list of discrepancies between Galaxy and the GOG website.

I guess this one is smaller than I originally thought.
