As always, this feature is free and part of the continuously evolving Bros24 – Whiteout Survival Guide.

Update: Birthday Reminders — Timezone & 08:00 Local

What’s new
• 🕗 Scheduled at 08:00 (local): Birthday posts now fire once per day after 08:00 in each guild’s local timezone.
• 🌍 Per-guild timezone: Set any IANA timezone (e.g., Europe/Warsaw, Asia/Bangkok).
• 🔁 No restart needed: The loop reads settings from the DB every run; changes take effect live.
• 🚀 Instant check: Run today’s check on demand for quick testing.
• 🧭 Missed-run catch-up: If the bot was offline at 08:00, it will post once it’s back (after 08:00 local).

New slash commands
• /birthday_timezone <timezone>
– Admin-only. Sets the guild’s timezone (IANA format).
– Example: /birthday_timezone Europe/Warsaw

• /birthday_check_now
– Admin-only. Immediately processes today’s birthdays (ignores the 08:00 gate).

How it works
• The scheduler runs every 10 minutes and, per guild:
– Computes “today” using the guild’s timezone.
– Skips until local time ≥ 08:00.
– Posts once per day (daily gate via last_daily_ymd).
– Marks each user with last_announce_ymd to avoid duplicates.
• If announce channel is missing/inaccessible, the day is marked to prevent loops.
• Fallback timezone comes from env var BIRTHDAY_DEFAULT_TZ (default: Europe/Warsaw).

Setup / migration notes
• New DB column: birthday_settings.timezone (auto-migrates on start).
• Permissions: Bot needs View Channel + Send Messages in your “Congrats” channel.
• Configure via /birthday (panel + channels).
• Optional env: BIRTHDAY_DEFAULT_TZ="Europe/Warsaw"

Quality & stability improvements
• Per-guild processing extracted into a dedicated method for safer retries.
• Daily gate ensures exactly one run per guild per day after 08:00.
• Views are re-attached on load; signup panel remains persistent.

Quick start

/birthday to set Signup & Congrats channels.

/birthday_timezone Europe/Warsaw (or your region).

(Optional) /birthday_check_now to test immediately.

Tip
Use {mention} and {user} in your greeting text. Images/footers are still supported, and the language menu continues to work as before.

Update: Birthday Reminders — Timezone & 08:00 Local

🚀 Update Release: AutoRole — Multi-Role Join, Live Search & Clear Status

Great news! Our AutoRole module just got a major upgrade. You can now save multiple join roles at once, search them instantly, and always see what’s currently enabled—everything is stored per server.

What’s new

✅ Multi-select join roles — save as many as you need; all enabled roles are listed in the menu.

🔎 Live search in the dropdown — you’ll see 8 quick suggestions; start typing to filter and find roles fast.

🧩 One-click toggle — previously enabled roles are pre-checked; uncheck to remove.

🛡️ Smart checks — non-assignable roles are flagged with the reason (hierarchy/managed/@everyone).

🧰 Unified Setup Hub — Exclusions (channels/roles), Promotion Tiers (messages → role), and Congrats message in one place.

How to set it up

Run /autorole on your server (requires “Manage Server”).

In the Setup Hub, open Join roles.

Use the dropdown search & check roles → saved automatically.

Optional: configure Exclusions, Promotion Tiers, and Congrats.

Important: permissions & role hierarchy
For AutoRole to assign roles, two conditions must be met:

🔧 Permission: The bot needs Manage Roles.

🏗️ Hierarchy: The bot’s top role must be strictly higher than every target role (not equal).
➜ Server Settings → Roles → drag the bot’s highest role above all roles you want AutoRole to give.

Why a role might show “not assignable”

@everyone can’t be assigned.

Managed/integration roles (from other bots, subscriptions, etc.) can’t be granted. Create a regular copy if needed.

The role is equal/higher than the bot’s top role → move the bot role above it.

🚀 Update Release: AutoRole — Multi-Role Join, Live Search & Clear Status

🎮 Bros24 – Whiteout Survival Guide Bot
🚀 BOOST CENTER — BUGFIX & QUALITY-OF-LIFE UPDATE
Release date: 03 Sep 2025 • Component: Boost Center • Compatibility: Drop-in (no migration)

✨ TL;DR

✅ Reliable boost announcements, even if Discord’s system boost messages are muted (smart fallback).

🧭 Menu stays visible after “Set Channel/Set Role” + you get a private (ephemeral) confirmation.

📝 “Configure Announcement” opens pre-filled with your saved text & image URL.

🏆 New: /boostshareleaderboard to post Top Supporters (last 28 days) into any channel on demand.

🔒 Existing data (history, goal, channel, language) is preserved.

🆕 What’s New

📣 Reliable announcements

Primary via Discord boost system messages.

🔁 Fallback posts even when system boost messages are muted.

🧑‍💻 Menu UX

Main menu returns immediately after Set Channel/Role.

🎯 Ephemeral success notice for admins.

🛠️ Configure Announcement

Modal is pre-filled with your saved announcement text & image URL.

🏅 Share the leaderboard when you want

Command: /boostshareleaderboard

Parameters: channel (target), top (1–25, default 10)

Permission: Manage Server

Example: /boostshareleaderboard channel:#boosts top:10

🧼 Data hygiene & accuracy

⏱️ Hourly reconcile fixes counts after downtime.

🗓️ Daily pruning removes boosts older than 28 days.

📊 How to Post the Ranking

🔐 Ensure the bot has Send Messages + Embed Links in the target channel.

▶️ Run: /boostshareleaderboard channel:#your-channel top:10

📨 The bot posts the Top Supporters embed (28 days).

👀 You receive an ephemeral confirmation.

🔄 Update / Deployment

⬆️ Update to the latest Boost Center build and restart the bot.

🧳 No migration needed—your settings and boost history remain intact.

✅ Quick Validation Checklist

/boostmenu → menu appears.

Set Channel/Set Role → menu stays; ephemeral confirmation appears.

Configure Announcement → saved text & image URL are pre-filled.

/boostshareleaderboard → ranking embed posts to the chosen channel (with permissions).

(Optional) System boost messages muted → a test boost still posts via fallback.

🛠️ Troubleshooting

🚫 No announcement after a boost?

Check an announcement channel is configured.

Verify bot permissions (Send Messages, Embed Links).

If system boost messages are muted, fallback still needs a configured channel.

🚫 Leaderboard won’t post?

You need Manage Server.

Confirm channel perms (Send + Embed Links).

🔄 Counts look off after downtime?

The hourly reconcile corrects them automatically.

🔏 Privacy & Storage

Stores only technical metadata (IDs, timestamps, language, configuration).

No sensitive content; history is bounded (FIFO cap).

📝 Changelog (Public Summary)

🆕 /boostshareleaderboard (Top Supporters, last 28 days, any channel).

🆕 Pre-filled Configure Announcement (text + image URL).

✅ Fix: Menu stays visible after Set Channel/Role + ephemeral confirmation.

🔁 Improve: Robust fallback when system boost messages are muted.

📐 Improve: Accurate counts (reconcile hourly, prune daily).
