This release comes about 18 months after the last update. It includes a whole range of fixes, stability improvements, and key changes designed to enhance usability, streamline management, and modernize the overall experience. From refining permissions with Discord’s integrated tools to reorganizing and simplifying commands, this update represents a significant step forward for RoWifi.
In addition to addressing user feedback, we’ve made technical enhancements to improve reliability, introduced new features like server templates, and updated terminology to align with our commitment to inclusivity. Whether you’re managing a small community or a large server, these changes are designed to make RoWifi more intuitive and effective than ever before.
Let’s dive into the details of what’s new!
To align with Discord's evolving best practices, message commands have been fully removed. By focusing on slash commands, we aim to provide a more modern, user-friendly, and secure interaction system. This change also simplifies command usage, making it easier for users to discover and use features directly within the Discord interface. All sensitive slash commands will require Administrator permissions by default. You can edit them by going to Server Settings > Integrations > RoWifi. You can learn more about them at Discord docs.
###Slash Commands Use Discord's Integrated Permissions
We’ve fully adopted Discord’s integrated permissions for slash commands. This change simplifies role-based access management. Server admins can now easily control who can use specific commands without the need for additional configuration within RoWifi.
The Admin and Trainer Roles were used to gate access for commands. However, with the use of the integrated Discord slash command permissions, these roles are no longer needed.
Bypass roles have been consolidated into a single, unified section for better organization. This feature now includes three types of bypass permissions:
/update
command from modifying anything./update
command from modifying roles./update
command from modifying nickname.Have binded roles that you don't want your users to lose? Mark them sticky and they will never be removed.
/xp view
Renamed to /view xp
The /xp view
command has been renamed to /view xp
. This change ensures that the command operates outside the XP module's
restrictive permissions, which govern sensitive commands.
/settings
, /reset
, and /botinfo
Commands DeletedThese commands have been removed as part of our effort to declutter the command interface. By retiring less frequently used commands, we can focus on improving and supporting the core functionality that matters.
/xp bind
Moved to /xpbinds
The /xp bind
command has been relocated to /xpbinds
to better organize XP-related commands. This change
aims to maintain consistency with the other types of binds.
A new default template is now available for servers. This feature increases the configurability of the nicknaming process. All servers have been set
to have a default template of {roblox-username}
.
We’ve renamed "blacklists" to "denylists" to align with more inclusive and descriptive terminology. This change reflects our commitment to clear and welcoming language throughout the platform.
We’ve added a new /debug update
command to help diagnose potential issues. This tool provides server admins with
diagnostic feedback, making it easier to identify and resolve problems quickly that pop up while running the /update
command.
The setrank and XP commands have undergone significant stability improvements. These commands now execute more reliably ensuring a smoother experience for all users.
We've removed the requirement of activating consent for reverse search. By removing this restriction, we’ve made this feature more convenient and universally available for servers for building additonal functionality.
The parsing and evaluation systems for custombinds have been enhanced to provide more accurate and efficient performance. This update ensures that the custombind code behave as expected, reducing errors and improving usability.
The Alpha Tier has been officially retired. All customers paying for Alpha Tier may stay on the tier without disruption.
Support for Patreon will be discontinued on March 31, 2025. We are now requiring all patrons to transition to Lemonsqueezy by the aforementioned date.
