Changelog

1.13.0 — 2026-09-28

Feed: the timeline now loads as you scroll — the first 20 entries come with the page, reaching the end appends 10 more at a time (like buttons work on appended cards too); without JavaScript there is a "Load more" link. Previously the timeline was cut off hard at 30 entries
Home spots: the location search in the profile editor returns suggestions again — Pinball Map recently started requiring an API token on every request (now sent along); if the search is still unreachable, a notice appears instead of a silently empty list
Profile: home spots now link to their Pinball Map listing ("Update this listing at Pinball Map"), in the map popup too, plus a licence note (CC BY-SA 4.0) under the heading and in the imprint — as Pinball Map's data use terms require

Digest: player names in the weekly email are now clickable and lead straight to the respective profile
Digest: new "Upcoming streams" section — if you follow a streamer with a schedule, their next (at most two) slots appear in the mail; stream slots alone never trigger a send, they only ride along when there is other news

Search: now shows up to 50 matches (previously 25) and says when more matches exist beyond that ("Showing the first X of Y matches") — common first names used to run silently into the cap, making individual players seemingly unfindable; the notice suggests adding a last name

New: player search by name — the search box on the home page now also finds players by first or last name (via the public IFPA search); IFPA numbers and initials still lead straight to the profile
Search: for privacy reasons, results show only the first name plus IFPA number and rank — the full name and location appear once the player has claimed their profile here and made it public; profiles removed on objection never show up in the search
Profile URLs: typing a name straight into the address bar (e.g. /daniel) now lands in the name search instead of an error message

New: forum banner — claimed, public profiles can enable a banner image with name, current IFPA rank and rank movement and embed it in forum signatures via BBCode; the image updates automatically after the weekly IFPA import (opt-in in the profile area under "Forum banner")
Privacy notice: the "Public visibility after claim" section now covers the forum banner
Profile editor: previously untranslated texts (favorite machines, home spots, featured rankings, sponsor & visibility) are now fully translated into German, French and Dutch

Menu: the "Home" entry in the user menu is now called "Feed" and takes you straight to the feed

New: weekly email digest (strictly opt-in) — once a week after the IFPA import: your rank movement and new tournament results, plus those of the players you follow; empty digests are never sent and every mail contains an unsubscribe link
Profile area: new "Notifications" page to switch the digest on or off; existing accounts see a banner there until they decide — the claim form gains a (never pre-ticked) digest checkbox
Privacy notice: the follow-feature section now also covers the weekly digest
Feed: the timeline now also shows rank movement (▲/▼ chip) and profile updates of followed players (new favorite machines and home locations, only when extras are published); a new "Upcoming streams" widget lists followed streamers' next slots
Feed: like button on every feed entry — only an anonymous count is shown, never who liked; the player concerned learns in the weekly digest how often their updates were liked
Feed: your own activities appear in the timeline as well (own entries show the like count but cannot be liked by yourself)

Profile: follow players — claimed public profiles show a follower count and a follow button (visible to signed-in users with a claimed profile of their own); only the count is ever shown, never who follows
New: Feed — the new start page for signed-in users (also right after login): claim status, recent tournament results of followed players, the private "Following" list and the player search
Privacy notice: new section covering the follow feature

Profile: new stream panel — claimed profiles can promote their Twitch channel (panel name, channel picture, channel chip), configurable in the profile editor under "Streaming"
Profile: live status on the stream panel — while streaming the panel lights up and the "ON AIR" badge opens the stream directly in a new tab
Profile: stream schedule — one-time dates and weekly slots, shown in the stream popup with the upcoming dates

Profile: pages load instantly — data refreshes in the background, sections still loading show an indicator and fill in automatically
Profile: profiles opened for the very first time appear instantly as a skeleton while the IFPA import runs in the background
Profile: "Last updated" now shows the actual time of the data refresh

New languages: French and Dutch — full interface and changelog translated, selectable via the language switcher (imprint/privacy pages stay German/English)

Profile: ranking tiles open a popup with the full standings table — paginated, starting on the page with your own position

Profile: rank progression now compares against the same month last year (a full year instead of 11 months)

Profile: head-to-head filterable by period (total, last 3 years, single years) — with the true top rivals of that period, based on the weekly IFPA data export
Profile editor: social links unified to username-only inputs (YouTube/Instagram no longer take URLs)
Admin: consent status (public profile / extras) visible on the claimed-profiles list

Profile: pro rank history as a second line in the rank progression chart (players with pro history)
Profile: head-to-head rivals with their own public Tilt profile are linked

Profile: the IFPA women's ranking is shown next to the open rank
Profile: ranking tiles renamed to Pro Rank / Open Rank / Women Rank, rank progression labelled as "Open"
Profile: NACS card — rank highlighted, points carry a "pts" label
Admin: registration IP and failed login attempts visible on the user account (privacy notice updated)
Version number with changelog in the footer

Password policy with live checklist and data-breach check (Have I Been Pwned, k-anonymity)
Language switcher in the navigation
Search validates input, Match Play rating comes live from matchplay.events, mobile layout fixed
NACS series standings on the profile

First public release: player profiles with IFPA data, profile claiming, user area, admin panel
