Changelog: Hashtag and character searching, improved look, and Shop search
New shop page look, new nav bar, and hashtags and character searching!

We have an exciting new release! You can now search and explore characters using hashtags and character names, including clicking on a character page hashtag. We also cleaned up the look of navigation, relocated website features for clarity, and made shop page search much more beautiful. Read on to see what's new!

  • Characters pages now display tags to look like hashtags for clarity
  • Users can now explore characters by clicking the hashtags on a profile and search character names on Explore! Discovering and exploring UnVale for amazing OCs and their creators is now much easier.
  • Shop page search (now located under "shops" instead of "artists") has a beautiful new look! Soon commission searching will be that much more enjoyable.
  • We moved the favorite and share buttons to the top of a profile so they don't get lost on a character page below the fold.
  • We changed the top nav bar to include only the features folks can use now: "Explore" and our newly designed "Shops."
  • Other minor fixes to search so it now behaves as expected, even when searching for character names. We included a null results page as well.

That's all for now! Head to UnVale to check out this update, and, as always, please join our Discord server to give feedback, ask questions, or share concerns with our team. Thanks!
