0.7.1

What's New

This release is a major dashboard refresh — cleaner navigation, a redesigned sign-in experience, and a built-in version page where you can read full release notes. When Sentinel updates, you'll see a banner in the dashboard pointing you to what's new. Premium access is also more reliable if the bot ever leaves and rejoins your server.

🎉 New Features

Redesigned dashboard home — New sidebar layout with quick stats (managed servers, total messages, recent activity), server search and sort, an onboarding banner for first-time setup, and rotating welcome messages so the home screen feels fresh each visit.

Guild settings sidebar — Each server now has a persistent sidebar for jumping between features, your Discord profile at a glance, and a floating save bar so you always know when changes are waiting to be saved.

Sign-in and loading experience — Revamped sign-in page with a cleaner layout, subtle animations, and a dedicated loading screen with status updates while your servers load.

Version page and changelog — A new Version page in the dashboard shows the current Sentinel version, past releases, and shareable links to individual release notes — including screenshots and images where we include them.

New-release notification — When a newer version of Sentinel is available, logged-in users see a banner with a link to read the full release notes. Once you've seen it, we won't show it again for that version.

Maintenance page — If the dashboard is briefly unavailable during an update, the maintenance page has been redesigned to match the new look — clearer messaging and a smoother experience on mobile.

Premium server styling — Server cards and guild headers show clearer Free vs 💎 Premium indicators, with refined styling so plan status is obvious at a glance. (See the Premium server card in the dashboard home screenshot above.)

🐛 Bug Fixes

Premium when the bot rejoins — If Sentinel is removed from your server and added back later, your Premium access (including complimentary grants) is restored correctly instead of resetting to Free unexpectedly.

Login and navigation — Improvements to how the dashboard handles your session after sign-in reduce cases where pages felt stale or out of date when switching between servers or opening release notes.

🔧 Improvements

Premium status messaging — Simplified headlines across active, expiring soon, and expired Premium states so plan status is easier to read at a glance.

Support server link — Quick access to the Sentinel support server from the dashboard sidebar when you need help.

Mobile and tablet layout — Guild tabs, release notifications, setup modals, and feature cards received layout and styling updates for smaller screens.

📋 Summary

In 0.7.1, the Sentinel dashboard gets a full visual and navigation overhaul — sidebar layouts on the home page and guild settings, a modern sign-in flow, quick stats and server search, and a proper version and changelog experience with new-release alerts. Premium access now restores correctly when the bot rejoins a server. Log in to the dashboard to explore the refreshed layout.
