A Boppin’ new feed

★ New tabs

If you’re logged in, you’ll see 6 little tabs at the top of the activities. These are shortcuts to help you enjoy our little social network!

• Popular (default): activities that have more than a certain amount of likes (amount will vary during testing phase)

  • Popular activities can be recognized with a 🔥 icon

• Hot: all activities, ordered by our magical formula to make sure you enjoy great content ✨

  • We recommend to set this tab as your default (in your settings) if you want to see a good mix of new content and content loved by the community!
  • Because the activities are not filtered, we don’t recommend you to visit it if you’re under 18 or not ready to see sensitive content.

• New: the latest content that just got posted, unfiltered. Perfect if you want to make sure you see EVERYTHING that gets posted.

  • Be careful as you’re browsing it, because you might be the first person who sees these activities!
  • We don’t recommend you to visit it if you’re under 18 or not ready to see sensitive content.
  • If you see anything that doesn't follow our rules, please help us by reporting it. Learn more: https://bandori.party/help/Report

• Following: all the activities posted by the people you follow.

• Staff picks: content curated by yours truly, the staff team!

  • We will generally focus on activities that cover BanG Dream! news you should know about, community events, and truly outstanding fan-made stuff.

• 🔍: Advanced search

  • Plenty of options to search, order and filter activities, including tags, activities that have an image or not, languages of the activities, ordering by most popular (all time or this week), and many more!

★ Archive your activities

Have you ever been in a situation where an old activity of yours keeps getting liked and spams the homepage feed?

• You can now “archive” your activities that are more than 30 days old.

  • Archived activities can be recognized with a 📦 icon

• People will still be able to like them, but they will not get pushed to the top of the feed.

• If you have a donator status (http://patreon.com/db0company), the 30 days limit does not apply!

• In the search bar of the activities, you can hide activities that were archived.

• You can change your email settings to only receive emails for activities that are not archived.

★ Copy-paste the URL of your activity to easily share it

• A new button appeared right next to the Twitter/Facebook/Reddit share buttons. Click it to copy the URL of your activity to your clipboard!

  • Only works if you have Javascript enabled. If you don’t know what it is, you have it, don’t worry.

A fleeting new settings page (+ profile)

★ With table of content at the top with buttons to scroll to sections:

• Profile: customize your profile and make it your own special page!

• Preferences: enjoy your stay by shaping your own experience

• More: add/edit accounts, see who you blocked, any recent report, etc.

  • Button to scroll back to table of content under each form

★ New options to add links:

• Cinderella Producers
• OSU

• MyAnimeList
• Anime-Planet
• MyFigureCollection

★ New activities preferences:

• View activities in your language only

• Default activities tab (homepage)

• Default language when posting activities (can be different from the interface’s language!)

  • For example, if you use the website in Spanish but generally post activities in English, English will be preselected for you.

• Hide tags you don’t want to see

★ What has been reported recently

• If someone reported your content and a moderator decided to edit or delete it, you will receive an email telling you why.
• We noticed that some people didn’t receive the emails, so you can now see all your things that got reported and edited/deleted in the last 30 days (content similar to what’s in email)

★ Add a custom link not in the list

• If you have your own personal website or just one of your pages that you’d like to emphasize, we now have an option to add a custom link.

• It’s a “premium feature”, only available for donators! Learn more

• Are you already a donator?

  • You’ve always been able to set your own link that shows up on our donation page, but to change it, you had to ask us.
  • Now you can update your custom link yourself under the settings page!
  • Your custom link will not just show up under the donation page, but also on your profile, as the first link!

★ Various changes:

• Language separated in its own form
• If a user speaks another language than yours, it will be indicated on their profile
• Form to change password has a link to reset password page in case you forgot it
• When submitting the following forms, instead of redirecting to profile, will just show a message saying “Successfully edited/added!”
  • Username/email, Add link, Change password, Emails preferences, Activities preferences, Donation link

★ Various

• Faster loading of your profile’s custom description
• We updated our set of icons to better illustrate the concepts we talk about on our website.
• If you disabled javascript, the pagination used to work well, but the buttons were a bit ugly. We made them look better.
