Regular update, released 2/13/2025.
Return to main update: Anachronist's Library

site changes — links: this page, its page

• changed how a recent search query is remembered so that it doesn't get in the way of page or sidebar content, nor of performing a new search, but still lets you jump between reuslts quickly
  • results are still remembered, but they're kept hidden until you click the search box again
  • search box shows your latest query as a "placeholder", in italics; once clicked, the query is restored, and all selected, so you can quickly replace it
  • clicking the magnifying glass will also select the entire existing query, for quick replacing, at any time
• added support for additional names to flashes
• divided "wiki editor" commentary into new subsection under artist info page, same as artworks with "edits for wiki" credits are divided, too
• tweaked phrasing for "tracks that reference/sample this one" sticky subheading, so that "from (group)" is displayed at the end of the heading, rather than in the middle
• action rows on the homepage, such as "Explore Official!" - "Explore Beyond!" - etc, and "...and many more!" under Recent Additions, are now always shown center-aligned on their own row

bug fixes — links: this page, its page

• fixed search sometimes getting activated with a totally empty query, while clearing the input's contents
