New
- Server administrators can create versioned forms and applications and publish them in Discord as button or selection panels.
- Short forms open directly in Discord; complex forms support drafts, multiple pages, conditions and private attachments on the website.
- Users can track their submissions, answer questions, download their data, withdraw a case and request deletion.
- Teams receive a case overview with claiming, questions, internal notes, reviews, status history and separate role permissions.
Improved
- Published form versions remain unchanged so older answers always retain their original questions.
- Retention periods begin after a case is completed and also apply to attachments.
Admin notes
- After updating, run the database migration and the documented forms backfill.
- Review team roles, intake channel, privacy notice and retention before publishing a panel.
Known issues
- Private attachments are strictly validated; an additional malware-scanning integration is prepared but not enabled yet.
Fixed
- User-facing shard labels now start at 1 instead of Discord's internal ID 0.
- With one shard, the /botinfo command now shows the clearer label “1 of 1”.
Admin notes

New
- The status page now shows bot CPU and memory use as well as the state of each Discord shard.
