The secret testing version of Weasyl

March 19th update: Thank you for testing, everyone! The main website has now been upgraded.
We’ve been working on some wide-reaching changes to Weasyl and could use your help with one last round of testing! If you have a moment to log in, please try using https://testing.weasyl.com/ over the next week in place of the normal https://www.weasyl.com/. As is traditional, the changes are supposed to be invisible, so with any luck you’ll find that it’s exactly the same as the website you’re used to. If you find otherwise, we’d appreciate any bug reports or improvement suggestions sent to support@weasyl.dev. :)
Also, for those curious about the specific technical details of the change: we’re moving from Python 2 to Python 3! And for the even more curious, Weasyl is open-source, so feel free to see the code behind all this at https://github.com/Weasyl/weasyl.

I will definitely be testing!
I dunno where to leave suggestions (not bugs), but have you considered making submission management more convenient? Like mass deleting? Or having a set of frequently used tags up as suggestions? :) -
Only somewhat related...
Is it possible to install the open source version on a hosted shared server? I have a friend that wanted to try it, but it was giving him fits. -

Hi! Could you clarify what you mean by that? (If this is about SFW mode, make sure the rating set at https://www.weasyl.com/control/editpreferences under “Maximum Viewable Content Rating in SFW Mode” is what you expect.)

I always use Weasyl with SFW on, but only since the update I've had to add NSFW tags to filter out that content.

This sort of thing shouldn't be showing up under sfw. https://cdn.weasyl.com/~wolfarter/submissions/2006915/075c0b34f832f515673b1bd0647c411dee52ba0ab97331e0a199ab3fc7b5aed8/wolfarter-butt-after.jpg
Either people aint tagging their work correctly or the filter is broken.

Great news and great work! I was wondering when this day would come. My sincerest apologies for the lack of foresight that went into choosing Python 2, as I'm sure update this was no simple task.

I anticipate RSS feed subscriptions for artists and site-updates at some point, when manpower has the energy & time for it of course. No other art-site I've been to supports RSS subscriptions, which is a shame, since I like to unify updates to my favorite things in one spot. :D
