Updates that matter to your server

See what is new, what has improved and whether server administrators need to take action.

1.5.0-beta.1

Current versionPublic beta

Forms and applications can now be managed end to end through Discord and the dashboard.

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.

This update makes shard labels easier to understand on the status page and in bot information.

Fixed

  • The /botinfo command now shows developers, last restart, resource use, servers, reachable users and the current server's shard.

Fixed
