  • Modified display of exact dates (usually when hovering over previously mentioned 'fuzzy times': Looks like "Jan 01, 2011" instead of "2011-01-01"
  • Fixed the problem with explicit thumbnails not being shown with Javascript disabled. There is now an option in your user settings to show or hide explicit thumbnails when Javascript is disabled. It defaults to showing them. The option only appears in your settings when Javascript is disabled

  • Changed way password resets work. Instead of emailing you with a new randomized password, you enter an email address, and you will be emailed a link that allows you to change your password to something new. This method is much more secure as it doesn't send passwords through (insecure) email.
  • Viewing /user/show without an ID will now show your profile (if you're not logged in, redirects to the user list like it did before)

  • Added sets. Sets are similar to favorites or pools, in that posts can be added to them. Sets can be private or public. Private sets work similarly to favorites and can be used to further organize posts for your convenience. Public sets work similar to pools, but they will not be moderated like pools are (although using defamatory names or descriptions for public sets or spamming pointless public sets is against the rules).
  • To add posts to a set, use the "Add to set..." mode dropdown on the post index, or click "Add to set" on the sidebar of any post page. Removing a post from a set works similarly.
  • Sets are intended to be used like groups or photostreams on other sites, in that any user is free to add any posts to any set they own (or maintain). For more information on sets, please see the sets help page
  • Account creation now requires email validation
  • Descriptions are now collapsible, and can be set to auto-collapsed in your user settings
  • Added some new welcome messages to the user home
  • Added a new mascot by Evalion
  • New meta-tags (for help on using them please see the cheatsheet)
    • order:desclength to order posts by description length
    • notelocked:true/notelocked:false to search posts whose notes are/aren't locked
    • note:text to search post notes
    • notecount:5 to filter by number of notes (same syntax as id, width, etc.)
    • In addition, all meta-tags can now be negated (previously, only specific ones like -user: and -id: worked)

  • Cleaned up the user home a lot
  • Added "Comments on my posts" link to the user home

Updated the theme system:
  • Added a new 'autumn' override
  • Overrides are extra styles that can be loaded on top of the existing color themes (hexagon, pony, bloodlust, etc.). For now they're just extra background images (you should see leaves at the bottom of the page now, for example).
  • Overrides can be changed at will (or disabled) by clicking on the "Style" link in the top-right corner of the site.
Fixed a couple of really annoying bugs:
  • User blacklisting now doesn't cause the entire page to turn white when doing certain things
  • The 'downcase' 500 error when submitting aliases is now a thing of the past
Added some features people have been asking for:
  • Added an optional 'reason' field to fill out when editing a post's tags/rating/whatever. You can use it to explain your reasoning behind a potentially controversial tag edit. Inline dtext is allowed (no quotes, for example), limited to 255 characters
  • Added an 'invitation' system to set maintainers - you can now accept, deny, or block maintainer invitations
  • You can now hide (and unhide) dmails now!
And a bunch of other useful stuff:
  • Leading and trailing whitespace is removed from alias and implication submissions
  • Tag history now shows edit reasons, and the table is forced wider so everything actually fits
  • Added a confirmation popup when reporting comments and forum posts, should prevent people accidentally reporting instead of responding
  • Tickets have an accessible XML/JSON API now. See the new tickets help page for more info.
  • Tickets now have visible 'created' and 'updated' dates
  • Ban mod actions now show ban duration
  • Users can now change the category of their forum posts after creation
  • DText thumbnails can now be on the same line
  • You can now blacklist filetypes using the type: metatag
  • Replying to forum posts is now possible when JS is disabled or broken
  • Added HTML titles to a bunch of dmail pages
  • Flag reasons in the flag history are now truncated to prevent layout breaking
  • Made classic thumbnail tooltips look nicer
  • It's now possible to view a user's profile by browsing to /user/show/username_here
  • Added duplicate comment/forumpost detection - submitting two identical comments/posts in a row now blocks the second one
And bugfixes:
  • Fixed thumbnails not showing up in dtext previews
  • Fixed an error when deleting certain posts, when its parent is trying to be added to a set it's already in
  • JS no longer breaks on the post index when there's a post with no tags somehow
  • Fixed an error when viewing a post with no tags (somehow) when tag categorization is enabled
  • Fixed the anonymous blacklist window showing up behind thumbnails in Chrome
  • Fixed a minor JS error with the blacklist character counter
  • Reverse image search links now don't show up for deleted posts
  • Fixed 500 when ordering the user index by records

    • You can now filter aliases/implications by the tag that's being aliased/implied to

  • Selected themes/extras are now loaded in the head instead of the body, meaning no more flickering on page load as your theme loads!
  • Sets are now ordered by the date the post was added to the set by default (order:set). To order them the old way (by post ID), use order:id_asc. Can also use order:set_asc for reverse

    • Filter form is collapsible like most others
    • Added date filtering

    • pools - array of pools the post is in - Temporarily disabled
    • children - array of child posts
    • sources - array of all sources (up to five, currently) on the post. source only contains the first source, for backwards-compatibility
    • These fields are now shown for deleted posts: created_at, score, rating, status (always deleted), has_comments, has_notes
    • Pool name is now the "pretty name", where underscores are replaced with spaces
Other stuff
  • Post edit form is a bit cleaner
  • In "flag history", a post that is currently flagged, but not for the shown reason now shows as 'Flagged*' instead of 'Flagged'
  • Renamed some controllers to fit conventions: take_down -> takedown, tickets -> ticket, blips -> blip, forum_categories -> forum_category. Old links/URLs still work fine
  • Post deletion reason text field is now larger
  • Users are now sent a Dmail if one of their forum topics was moved to a different category
  • Takedowns can now be 'Inactive', meaning the submitter hasn't responded in a while - that way they don't clutter up the Pending list, but can still be finished if/when the submitter responds
  • Takedown status ordering now orders from most important to least (Pending -> Inactive -> Denied -> Partially Approved -> Approved)
  • Added 'Blip complaint' option to ticket filters

  • Blocked users can now do a bunch of things they shouldn't not be able to do:
    • View posts hidden from anonymous users
    • View user profiles
    • Mark all forum posts as read
    • See subscription help in post sub-nav-bar

commit: e00464d

Updated by anonymous

April 9, 2014

  • Added the Edit link back to the post sidebar
  • Cleaned up wording on FFD bar links a bit more
  • If you hide a news notice, it'll also hide older news notices (due to a bug where you sometimes see the second most recent news post instead of the most recent one). This means no more constantly hiding the news as it bounces between the newest and second newest.
  • News cache is expired instantly when creating new news, meaning you get newer news faster! (instantly instead of 15 minutes after submission)
  • Dots in FA usernames are now parsed correctly by the source URL cleaner

commit: 11335bc

Updated by anonymous

June 11, 2014

New features
  • [MOD] We've implemented a new job task system which should work better than our existing one. Currently only alias approvals use it
  • Comments and forum posts are now created and displayed on the page when submitted, instead of loading a new page. You'll still have to refresh to see other people's new comments/forum posts, though
  • Notice/error bars now snap to the top of the window if you scroll down past them, meaning they are always visible, no matter what
  • Improved the look of the news, blocked, and unread mail bars
  • You can now mark all Dmail as read and hide the unread mail bar by clicking the X button on it
  • DText color tags can now be used in Dmails for privileged+ users
  • Removed "Post without bumping" for comments since it's utterly pointless and just caused problems internally
  • Overhauled the password storage system (don't worry, we don't and never did store plaintext passwords). You shouldn't notice any difference but a password change is recommended to switch to the new, more secure system
  • The user settings page now has section titles, and the Save/Cancel buttons are always visible at the bottom of the window
  • Post tag histories no longer generate blank edits, and existing blank edits will soon be purged from the database
  • Post tag history now uses a different pagination method, meaning we don't have to limit members to the first page
  • Post tag history now has more search/filter options
  • Email activation is now required for new accounts
  • Emails are now correctly formatted, come in HTML and plaintext flavors, and should set off spam filters far less often
  • Two accounts can no longer share the same email address
Bug fixes / minor things
  • [ADMIN] The admin user-password-reset page works much better
  • [ADMIN] IP addresses should no longer be messed up by Cloudflare, and missing IPs are now 0.0.0.0 instead of 1.3.3.7
  • [ADMIN] Implemented a new IP log system
  • [JANITOR] The post mode dropdown under the search bar on the post index now allows deleting and undeleting posts
  • The forum index now shows snippets of a thread when hovering over the title
  • Post page titles are now "Post #xxx: artist_tag" instead of a giant list of every tag on the post. This should be much more useful for things like browser tabs
  • Commenting now redirects you to the post's page instead of the comment index, if you commented from the post's page
  • Set/pool notice messages now have more information (for example: "post #1 added to set 'Some Set'" instead of "Post added to set")
  • Added lots of links to the subnav bar on user pages
  • Artist help page now has instructions on linking user accounts to an artist tag

  • Fixed 'species' being listed twice, in place of 'character' somewhere in the API help page
  • Cleaned up the post thumbnail HTML, no differences to users except that the blue hover tooltip showing the tags (which didn't work very well anyway) was removed and replaced with a standard browser tooltip
  • Fixed FA source cleanup/conversion not working for FA usernames with tildes
  • Comment, forum post, and blip links (Respond, report, etc.) are now hidden when not logged in
  • Deleted post thumbs can now be clicked on to visit the post page

  • Made unread topics easier to distinguish from read topics in the pony, bloodlust, and serpent skins
  • Changed the color of status notices on post pages (deleted, flagged, etc.) in some skins so they're the correct color

commit: ec07291

  • Fixed API authentication failing
  • Fixed submitting a forum post through AJAX not working quite right

  • Comment/forum post previews are now hidden when submitting the comment/post

In addition, you can now choose which type of title you want on your post pages in your settings. Use the new Post ID + artist style, or maybe you want to go back to having all of the tags in the title again!

First off: we're trying out a new method of changing tag types. Previously, to change an existing tag's type you prepended a type to it, such as species:lemur. However, that occasionally led to tag types being changed inadvertently. For example, you upload a post by the artist "outdoors" and tag it artist:outdoors, changing outdoors to the artist type when outdoors_(artist) was the proper tag to use. Now, changing a tag's type will instead append a suffix if the tag already exists. In this case, adding artist:outdoors will leave the outdoors tag as a general tag and add (or create) artist:outdoors_(artist). This does not happen for tags that don't exist yet.

Now, to change a tag's type, you can visit the tag index, search for the tag, click edit, and change the type from there. Standard post-count rules apply, i.e. members can only change the types of tags with 100 or fewer posts.

Now on to the rest of the changelog:

New features:

  • e621 now has rudimentary .webm upload capability! (was applied a few days ago)
  • Comments can now be edited for five minutes after they are created, if you need to fix typos. This will also apply to blips soon
  • The moderation queue now shows image dimensions and file size next to each post
  • The dropdown to select which pool to add a post to now ignores quotes, parentheses, lowercase letters, etc. when sorting
  • View counts on posts now have a thousands separator for easier reading
  • Aliases and implications now have a link back to the forum post they were suggested in. A new filter and sort order were added to the alias and implication indexes for forum post links as well

Fixes:

  • Removed the ability to view a user's blacklist by going through user/index.xml (or json)
  • Fixed post links in FFD/deletion notices not converting post links with weird capitalization (like POst #123)
  • Users with non-html-safe characters in their name (like double quotes) can now be blacklisted properly
  • Fixed tag scripts not working (was applied a few days ago)
  • Fixed dashes being removed from the middle of tags (was applied a few days ago)
  • The tag index now shows a link to each tag's wiki page and if it exists or not (was applied a few days ago)
