You closed the last thread, so I am opening a new one.
Firstly: I know you added an actual smiley “badge” for supporters, but I want my username to show to the freeloaders that I am supporting the site, encouraging them to do the same.
For example. Lichess:
Everyone gets this awesome WING OF ICARUS. I want that on CityStrides. I even miss my subtle purple underline of yore.
Secondly: You give the patron badge, but you don’t take it away when it expires. I wanted to gift some subscriptions, but from what I can tell, there’s no way for me to know if they donated once, or are still a premium member.
Yeah, I struggled with how to handle this… It definitely highlights the need to somehow highlight people as current Supporters.
I did build gifts in a way that will append any existing subscription/payment. If they’re prepaid, then they get months added … If they’re on a subscription, then their account gets the credit applied - so even if they pay yearly, they’ll pay a reduced amount when that renews.
Just realizing that I did not build a display in the Billing section of the Settings page to show this account credit. I’ll see about adding that soon.
Thanks for your vote of confidence! I was able to get the blue shadow highlighting and the Avatar Decorations released today. You can choose from a dozen designs in your Settings page.
Would it be possible to preview the change when clicking on the style rather than having to save to see it? Also I think the option of not having one would be nice, just to not force it on people.
