Features
- Built-in chat system
- Added a real-time messaging system to the website.
- You can now start conversations directly from trade listings and continue them through the site chat widget.
- Unread messages are tracked with visual indicators to make conversations easier to follow.
Improvements
- Smarter default behavior in Trade Listings pet filters
- The Show only wishlist and Show only tradeables options in the Offers and Wants dropdown filters now use smarter defaults.
- They still start enabled in normal cases, but will now start disabled if:
- the user is not logged in, or
- enabling the option would make the selectable pet grid empty
- This makes the filters more intuitive and avoids empty dropdown states by default.
- Home page CTA cleanup for logged-in users
- The Create account buttons no longer appear on the Home page for users who are already logged in.
Performance
- Trade Listings now load progressively
- Trade Listings now load in smaller batches to improve responsiveness.
- Better offscreen media handling
- Improved performance for pages with many pet cards by reducing unnecessary work outside the visible area.
- Offscreen content is now loaded more efficiently, and animated pet GIFs no longer keep rendering when they are outside the viewport.
Bug fixes
- Fixed form submissions returning “Not found”
- Fixed broken form submission flows that could redirect to a blank Not found page.
- Wishlist icon now updates instantly in Pet Inventory
- Fixed an issue where marking a pet as Wishlisted did not immediately update the icon state.
