Changes & Updates
Bye, Bot!
Now members, and non-members, are able to take advantage of our bot trap and blockers.
This comprehensive list is derived from Spamhaus DROP/EDROP, Fullbogons, dShield, Feodo, and more; including our custom bot traps. These bots visit and attempt to exploit your website. You are in more danger if you use WordPress, as majority of the bots caught in our trap were attempting to exploit WordPress and WordPress plugins.
The beta version is available for anyone, and only requires adding this to your header or footer (recommended):
<script async src="https://gnomesite.com/bot.js"></script>
That is it!
Start blocking exploitation and spam bots with ease.
QoL Updates
Various quality of life updates were released, including Poll option deleting, deleting Bio Page links, and more.
Upcoming features involve Color/Style Options, Advanced Style Options, and will be available for all widgets. Along with that release will also be Template and Layout options, and will allow you to further customize your widgets. There are color theme and detailed color options in the Settings page, and are settings for all widgets. Choose a color theme and then refine with the detailed color options using an easy-to-use interface.

A custom message can be displayed if the user scores 90% or more (default "A"), 80% or more (default "B"), 70% or more (default "C"), 60% or more (default "D"), or 59% (default "F") and lower.
