Update your settings

Hey Realms members! We've been hard at work fixing bugs, improving features, and rolling out new updates to enhance your experience. Here’s what’s new and what’s coming soon!

🛠 Bug Fixes:

•  The forum bug preventing members from viewing more than 10 topics has been repaired.
• The activity feed visual bug affecting Groups has been fixed.
• The forum issue where comments would slide off the screen when posting code has been resolved.

✨ Small Updates:

• Inbox messages will now display from newest to oldest, preventing unnecessary scrolling.
• Most blog pages are now mobile responsive for a smoother browsing experience.
• The Gift section on user profiles is now responsive and will no longer stretch gift icons.
• Profile layouts have been restructured and will now serve as the permanent default layout. (Some link colors and headers are still being adjusted.)

🚧 Currently Being Worked On:

• Credits System Adjustments – This has been one of the trickiest features to implement! We're currently fixing a few backend bugs before finalizing the correct reward distribution for earning credits (likes, comments, blog posts, etc.).
• Bug Reports – Now that the forum topic bug has been resolved, we are actively catching up on bug reports. These may be closed soon as fixes are completed.
• Comment Deletion Issue – We are aware of a bug where comments may not delete from user profiles when attempting to remove self-comments. A page refresh sometimes resolves the issue, but we are actively working on a fix.
• Welcome Bot – A bot is being developed to help new members navigate Realms and get started!
• Live Chat System – A real-time chat system is in the works to provide a fluid and seamless chat experience integrated directly into the site.
• Site-Wide Link Updates – All site links will eventually match the site’s color scheme, but each section needs to be updated manually. This is an ongoing process.
• Page Headers – Headers across blogs, forums, member pages, photos, etc., will be updated for better alignment and will be removed on mobile to improve readability.
• Mobile Responsiveness Fixes – Many pages are still not fully optimized for mobile. We're working through them gradually to ensure a smooth and functional mobile experience.

🎉 Extras & Announcements:

🙏 A Huge Thank You! – As we get closer to the site’s official launch and continue working through bugs, we want to take a moment to genuinely thank every member who has made a purchase during beta. Your contributions directly fund the site’s upkeep and improvements. In the spirit of transparency, here are just some of the costs your purchases have helped cover:

We truly couldn't have done this without you. Please keep some of these numbers in mind when considering donating or purchasing from Realms in the future.
