v1.7.0 — Featured, Promoted & Profile Looks

A big update for discovering listings and for showing off yours. New to the shop? Read the Sparks guide.

✨ Featured & # Promoted

• Featured everywhere — Bots and servers Featured by the FBL team now show at the top of every list: the home page, Bots, Servers, Top, New, tag pages, search results and the search box. Before, they only showed on the home page.
• Two different tags — Featured means the FBL team picked it, or it won the monthly prize for most votes. The new # Promoted tag means its owner bought that spot with Sparks. Featured never takes a Promoted spot. What the tags mean.
• Monthly prize — The most voted bot and server of the month still get the Featured badge for the whole next month, shown in their normal place in every list.
• More places to promote — Pin your listing in Home: Top Voted, Home: Trending New, the Top page (also the top of the Bots and Servers pages) or the New page, for 24, 48 or 72 hours.
• Fair slots — Each place shows up to 3 bots and 3 servers at once. If they're all taken, your purchase waits in line and starts as soon as one frees up: first bought, first shown. Time that has started always runs in full.
• See how it did — Boosts & History shows how many people saw and clicked your listing in each spot over the last 30 days.

🛍️ Shop

• Profile tab — Name styles, plus new Banners across the top of your profile and Avatar rings around your picture. Each only changes its own part: a name style no longer changes your banner.
• Profile bio — Unlock a bio on your profile for 500 Sparks, once: up to 500 characters of plain text, edit any time. Bios written before this update stay on your profile; unlock it to edit yours.
• Banners come from the shop — Custom banner images are paused for now. Pick a banner from the shop instead.
• Overclock — Overclocked servers can now bump every 6 hours (was 8) for 7 days.
• Spark Shop pages for your listings — On your bot or server's edit page: Looks & Link to change or take off its looks and set its vanity link, and Boosts & History for what's live, what's queued and every purchase.

🤝 Partners

• Partnered badge — Official FBL partners now carry a Partner badge on cards, their page and everywhere they're listed.
• Partners page — See every partnered bot and server at /partners.

🏠 Lists & home page

• "Made by" on every card — Each listing shows who made it, with their name style.
• Trending New is really new — It now shows the most recently listed bots and servers first, not the most voted ones.
• Recently Bumped everywhere — Servers bumped in the last day show above every server list, not only on the home page.
• Newest means newest — Sorting by newest uses when a listing went live on FBL.
• Find something new — A search that finds nothing now points you to popular bots or servers to explore.
• Monthly votes on vote buttons — Vote buttons show this month's votes; the all-time total is in the tooltip.

🤖 FBL bot

• Mention works as a prefix — @FBL bump, @FBL help and every other command work with a mention, whatever the server's prefix.
• Custom prefix — Server managers can set their own prefix with !setprefix ?. React ✅ to confirm or ❌ to cancel. !setprefix reset goes back to !.
• Forgot the prefix? — Mention @FBL on its own and it replies with the server's prefix.
• Bump log — Every bump is now posted in the FBL community server.

⚡ Sparks

• Check in on the website — Your daily check-in now happens only with the button in Dashboard → Sparks → Daily & Quests. Bumping and !daily no longer check you in; !daily links you to the button.
• Referral notifications — You and your friend both get a message when a referral pays out, and Referrals lists who joined with your link.

🔧 Improvements

• Search engines — Better titles, descriptions and previews on every page, so FBL shows up better in search results.
• Phones and tablets — The search box, lists, Boosts & History and shop pages fit every screen, in every theme.
• Trending This Month — Long tags stay on one line instead of breaking the card.

🐛 Fixes

• Show more — "Show more" in the Fluxer Servers section now opens servers, not bots.
• Monthly votes — Monthly votes now reset on time at the start of the month.
• Scrolling lists — Listings that load as you scroll now show who made them, their looks and badges, and carry on in the right order.
• Vote webhook privacy — Fixed a bug that could show a listing's vote webhook settings to others. If you use vote webhooks, create a new webhook secret on your listing's API page.
