Followed Bots, Profiles & a Smoother Forge

This release makes DiscordForge easier to follow, easier to manage, and more personal. Keep up with the bots you care about, celebrate meaningful milestones, claim a cleaner profile URL, and enjoy a smoother dashboard experience.

Added

  • ·Followed Bots & Watchlist: Follow the projects you care about and discover the feature directly from bot profiles. New updates and important milestones can now arrive through Forge DMs when you opt in.
  • ·Vote Milestones: Bot owners receive meaningful milestone notifications as their projects reach new vote goals, turning community support into clear progress moments.
  • ·Lootboxes & Inventory: Added secure lootbox opening through the Forge economy, with server-side validation, atomic inventory updates, and abuse-resistant reward handling.
  • ·Profile Vanity Links: FORGE and PIONEER members can claim a unique, lowercase profile handle for a clean public URL such as discordforge.org/profile/yourhandle.

Changed

  • ·Dashboard Experience: Redesigned Settings and Privacy into a clearer glassmorphic bento layout with stronger hierarchy, better spacing, and more readable controls.
  • ·Bot Status Tracking: Offline alerts now respect mutual guild presence, preventing Forge from sending false status notifications for bots it cannot actually observe.
  • ·Developer API Migration: Legacy routes now clearly point integrations toward their v1 replacements and remain available as compatibility aliases until 14 October 2026, 00:00 UTC.

Fixed

  • ·Catalog Pagination: Category pages now load the correct bot results when moving beyond the first page instead of repeating page one.
  • ·Uptime Invite Links: Status Tracker invites now use the correct bot and only request the required Discord application command scope.
  • ·Privacy Controls: Removed the unused marketing-email preference and corrected toggle sizing and positioning across the privacy center.

Enhanced Notification Badges, Extended Explore Grid & Refined Dashboard Layouts

This update introduces custom status badges for notifications, extends homepage Explore grid pagination to 5 pages, improves catalog list-view tag contrast, and aligns Dashboard Teams with standard settings styling.

Added

  • ·Custom Notification Badges: Introduced distinct, color-coded icon badges (orange Zap for Boosts, cyan BadgeCheck for Verifications, emerald CheckCircle for Approvals, red AlertCircle for Rejections) across both the full-page Notification Center and header dropdown.
  • ·Extended Explore Grid: Increased homepage Explore the Forge catalog pagination from 3 to 5 pages (up to 30 items for bots, servers, and templates).

Changed

  • ·Catalog List View Contrast: Redesigned list-view tag pills with crisp background borders and contrast typography (text-zinc-300 / bg-white/[0.06]) for improved readability.
  • ·Dashboard Teams Layout: Standardized /dashboard/teams header and layout container to match Settings and Privacy pages.

Fixed

  • ·Discord User Support Avatars: Replaced hardcoded avatars in /support Contact Us with real user avatars.

Full-page Notification Center & Integrated Bot Commands Manager

We've added a new full-page Notification Center to comfortably view long alerts, and integrated a dedicated Bot Commands manager submodule directly into your bot's dashboard view.

Added

  • ·Full-Page Notification Center: Added a dedicated /dashboard/notifications page featuring a responsive 3x3 grid layout with spring animations, action controls (mark read, clear all, individual deletes), and scrollable text blocks to read long notification messages.
  • ·Integrated Bot Commands Manager: Added a dedicated Bot Commands submodule directly between Vanity URL and API Access in the Bot Dashboard. Manage custom bot commands with a clean, floating glassmorphism design, grouping them by category with real-time limit status sync (maximum 200 commands).

Changed

  • ·Dashboard Layout & Contrast Improvements: Enhanced visibility of Creator Dashboard date ranges and back buttons to support high contrast zinc color palettes against dark gradients.

Developer API v1, Usage Insights & Safer Webhooks

Developer API v1 is live. New integrations should use Bearer authentication now; the previous public routes remain available until 14 October 2026, 00:00 UTC.

Added

  • ·Developer API v1: New Bearer-authenticated endpoints for command sync, heartbeats, stats, bump cooldowns, safe listing updates, and public bot announcements.
  • ·Listing and Announcement API: Approved bot owners can update safe listing fields and publish sanitized release announcements directly from their integrations.
  • ·API Usage Insights: Staff can now monitor daily authenticated API traffic, response classes, endpoint usage, and legacy-vs-v1 adoption from the admin panel.

Changed

  • ·Migration notice: New integrations must use Authorization: Bearer YOUR_BOT_API_KEY with /api/v1 routes. Legacy public endpoints remain compatible until 14 October 2026, 00:00 UTC, then return 410 Gone with their replacement route.

Fixed

  • ·Webhook secret handling: Saved webhook tokens are never sent back to the browser or returned by the edit API. Leave the empty token field unchanged to keep a saved secret; enter a new value only to rotate it.
  • ·Webhook testing: Tests now use only the saved webhook URL and secret, so a successful test reflects the configuration used for real vote deliveries.
