v0.0.4 Changed 1 Fixed 1 2 changes
Changed
- Plugin developer docs got a full rewrite — table of contents, expanded manifest reference, lifecycle and event catalogues, dashboards, testing, and sandbox limits all in one place.
Fixed
- SDK wheel download now finds the latest build in both production and local dev setups.
v0.0.3 Added 3 Enhanced 3 Fixed 1 7 changes
Added
- Winner confirmation flow — Hosts can now require winners to confirm their prize through a DM button. If a winner doesn't claim within the configured window (default 24h, up to 7 days), the slot is flagged and can be rerolled.
- Role-based bonus entries — Give specific server roles extra entries in any giveaway. Bonuses stack with the existing Nitro booster bonus.
- Activity log on every giveaway — Each giveaway's detail page now shows a collapsible activity history: who created, ended, cancelled, rerolled, or edited it.
Enhanced
- Spectator page polish — Weighted entries now stand out visually: larger balls scaled by weight, a soft glowing aura, and a slowly-rotating sparkle ring on the highest-bonus entries.
- Avatars scale with weight — The user's profile picture takes up more of the ball as their weight goes up, so VIP entries are visually distinct, not just bigger.
- DM delivery status for winners — The detail page now shows whether each winner's DM was delivered. Spot users with DMs disabled at a glance and ping them manually.
Fixed
- Spectator links now open correctly — Some giveaway URLs were redirecting to the homepage instead of opening the live drum view. They now route to the spectator page as expected.
v0.0.2 Added 11 Enhanced 7 Fixed 7 25 changes
Added
- Patch notes publisher: write release notes in the dashboard with a section toolbar and live preview, then publish to Discord.
- Welcome — Quests: new
/questscommand, automatic progress tracking, and per-task rewards (XP, role, currency). - Beacon — Auto voice channel: opt-in per event. The bot creates a voice channel before start and removes it once the event ends and the channel empties.
- Beacon — Attendance Reputation: attendance is logged automatically when an event ends, with reputation scores updating the same moment.
- Beacon — Voice attendance check: events with auto-voice now use real channel presence to confirm attendance, so no-shows don't earn credit.
- Beacon — Partial credit for "late": members marked late get half credit instead of being lumped with full attendance.
- Beacon — Availability heatmap: builds itself from real signups and voice attendance — no more asking members to fill in a grid.
- Beacon — Poll auto-close: polls now close on time. The Discord embed updates and the vote buttons go away automatically.
- Beacon — Edit, repost, and CSV export for polls: edit any unposted poll, repost if the Discord message gets deleted, and download a CSV of votes.
- Beacon — Poll quick templates: Yes/No, Yes/No/Maybe, Days of Week, 1–5 Rating, A/B/C/D, Time Slots.
- Beacon — Template Preview: see exactly how an event will look before saving the template.
Enhanced
- Beacon — Polls editor: drag-to-reorder option rows with a live counter, capped at 10 options.
- Beacon — Polls page: split into Open and Closed sections, real
#channeldropdown for posting, winner highlighted with 🏆 (with a "Tied" badge when leaders are tied), and live "closes in 5h 23m" countdowns. - Beacon — Cancel from dashboard updates the Discord message to show the event is cancelled and removes the signup buttons.
- Beacon — Edit event now opens with all your existing event data filled in.
- Beacon — Sub-class signups appear under the sub-class they actually picked, while the parent role keeps the count for cap math.
- Beacon — Embeds show each member's spec next to their mention so leaders can see the lineup at a glance.
- Welcome — Settings & quests pages got a polish pass with clearer copy and friendlier empty states.
Fixed
- Beacon — Reputation now updates after every event instead of staying flat.
- Beacon — Analytics charts (attendance rate, popular times, role distribution) now show data instead of empty bars.
- Beacon — Reminders stay scoped to the right server so members aren't pinged about events from other communities.
- Beacon — Auto voice channels are reliably cleaned up when the event ends.
- Beacon — Editing an event keeps the role tree intact instead of starting over.
- Beacon — Templates Preview loads correctly (was failing with an error).
- Welcome —
/questscommand is back and quest progress updates as members hit triggers.
