  • Several authors requested a ‘Courses’ listing type to separate long-form content from shorter tutorials. This made sense and we added it, along with the same categories as tutorials.
  • Other new categories:
    • Tutorials/Timelapse
    • Scripts & Add-ons/Grease Pencil
    • Scripts & Add-ons/Sculpting
    • Materials, Shaders, Textures/ NPR/Stylized
    • Tutorials + Courses: Hair, Fire/Smoke, VFX
  • Increased the popular section on the homepage to 12 items (these are ordered by the number of views - we don’t have a lot of data yet, so the current order doesn’t mean much).
  • We’re now automatically embedding videos that are in the external links, but not in the description. This makes it easier/more attractive for visitors to view your content.
  • Tech: I added three layers of caching to survive the launch :sweat_smile:

  • Fixed some issues with the ‘new’ tab on the homepage (background: we’re showing only 1 listing per author there to avoid flooding).
  • Improved analytics + view tracking (background: we’re now using server-side analytics to track views as ad blockers were skewing the numbers. We’re using the open source Matomo software that’s been configured to discard the last 2 digits of visitors’ IP addresses to protect privacy).
  • Image + gallery improvements: Added a ‘lightbox’ to click-enlarge images (use the image ‘Link to’ option and set to ‘Media File’, and a ‘Tiled Mosaic’ option to the listing editor (Insert Media > Gallery > Type = Tiled Mosaic)

  • Now blocking GPT bots in robots.txt.
  • Added a ‘Free’ badge to cards. It sometimes clashes with the thumbnails, so I’m not sure yet if this is the optimal solution. Adding it to the bottom of the cards made everything a lot more ‘noisy’ though…
