v0.84.0

If you're on a public or shared instance, this might be helpful; now you can mark models as "sensitive" (i.e. NSFW, or otherwise something to be careful about). You can also choose how you want to display sensitive items; you can show them normally, blur them in the lists, or you can hide them completely!

There are also a couple of high-priority bugfixes for database migrations that were causing problems in v0.83.0.

What's Changed

✨ New Features ✨

• Add "sensitive" setting for models, and user control of how they're displayed by @Floppy in #2969

🐛 Bug Fixes 🐛

• Fix migration issue ("destination exists" Problems) by @Floppy in #2975
• Fix default role name migration by @Floppy in #2976

Full Changelog: v0.83.0...v0.84.0

v0.83.0

We've all got too many passwords; so, this release adds experimental support for single sign-on using OpenID Connect (OIDC)!

We say "experimental" because OIDC is a big world with many providers, so it's entirely possible that there will be problems we've not found yet; if you find that your provider doesn't work as you'd expect, report a bug and we'll get it fixed. Take a look at the authentication config docs for details of how to set it up.

There are also new config options for customising your site. Not every site can just be called "Manyfold", that'll be confusing, so now you can change the title, tagline, and icon to something more personal!

We've ALSO added a few new formats; FeeeCAD, BRep, and Markdown. Enjoy!

What's Changed

✨ New Features ✨

• Add OIDC login support by @Floppy in #2946

v0.82.0

Exciting times! This release has not one, but TWO major features!

First, Manyfold will now index PDF, TXT, Markdown and video files. All those models that come with build instructions, licenses, and so on? Now you can see it all!

The second is another big step on something we've been building towards for a long time; Manyfold is now social! Users of Fediverse social networks, using systems like Mastodon, can follow Manyfold creators, collections or individual models. As of this release, if you've followed a creator, when they add a new model, you'll see an update in your feed!

Future releases will add more update types, and will allow you to subscribe directly to content on one Manyfold server from another, so stay tuned for more!

v0.81.0

There's a lot of work in this release, but perhaps not much is too visible. We're working on ActivityPub interoperability with platforms like Mastodon, and there's a lot of work under the hood to get us there. The visible ActivityPub interaction stuff is very near though, hopefully you'll get to see it within a week in v0.82.0!

This release does have a few bug fixes though, and a new feature whereby you can split a model's files into two parts through the bulk file editor. So, if you merged things by accident, now you can undo it!

v0.80.0

This release is all about bugs! Along with v0.79.0, it includes fixes for every high-priority bug we wanted to fix for v1.0.0. A lot of these have been around for a long time, so it's great to get them closed!

Having said that though, there are a few new features too. First of all, we have a Spanish translation thanks to some fantastic work by @juanjomurga! Also, you can now use Markdown in model descriptions (used to be notes), and they're displayed under the image carousel in your models, just like you'd expect on any other model hosting site. Manyfold will also raise problems for missing metadata, like links, creators, tags, or license. To enable those, change them from "ignored" to "info" in settings. We knew there would be a lot, so we left them hidden by default 😄
