Hello everyone! While this month only brings one new book to the database, it also comes with a host of bug fixes and errata updates. I want to give a humongous shoutout to our new editor Kao for combing the Discord channels and Archives pages and identifying/fixing everything they could find within. Another big thanks to Devin for updating the Core rulebook data to reflect the latest Errata!

With Kao’s addition, I’ll also be updating the Contributors page to showcase the folks that help out so much with the website in a cleaner way, so expect a change coming to that page in the next update or two!

Enjoy!

Hello everyone! Today, I don't have much new content for you - a new Feat from Pathfinder Society Quest #2 was added, but that's it for now. The main reason for this update is that we've completed work on a large number of new Search and UI related features that I know many have wanted for quite some time. I won't detail them all here, check out the changelog below for the full list.

Now that we've done a lot of the changes we wanted to on 2E, we can start bringing these changes to the other sides of the site. Expect announcements on those fronts in the coming weeks!

Since this update involves some UI changes, there's a chance bugs may arise if you don't clear your browser cache, so please be sure to do that if you notice any oddness before leaving us a comment/email about a bug. It often clears up issues related to these types of updates.

As always, enjoy!

Site Updates

  • [Rules] Links to parent Rules added to the top of each rule entry (except those already at the top)
  • [Search] Search bar added to the main menu on both Desktop and Mobile views
  • [Search] Query parameter added to URL for an optional Search entry - for example, searching for Fireball, you'd use https://2e.aonprd.com/Search.aspx?Query=Fireball
  • [Search] Chrome Omnibar support added
  • [Search] Results ordering changed, priority now goes to the category which includes the best match
  • [Search] Exact Matches, when found, are now called out at the top
  • [Search] "Teleport to Best Result" button added to Search (also available as a URL Parameter, BestMatch=True) - this will take you to the best match we can find based off of your search. For now this is only available on the Search page itself, but we will be adding a button alongside the search box on the menu in another update
  • [Search] Boolean option for AND added to Search page - default logic is to search for each word individually, OR, now you can search for only objects which include ALL words

Hey everyone! We have a mid-week update for you tonight with a couple of recently released books in the Age of Ashes Adventure Path - Cult of Cinders and Tomorrow Must Burn! In addition to those and some other bug updates, we’ve also updated the mobile view with a few sub-categories in the menu items and a bit of adjustment to the UI. Huge thanks as always to the team for all of their work! As to when that’s coming to Starfinder and Pathfinder 1st Edition, I’m aiming to push an update this weekend to that very end, so coming soon!

Lastly, I’m happy to announce that Paizo has agreed to allow us to move up our release schedule, timing it with the official street date of the releases (instead of around 2 weeks later as we’d previously been waiting). That begins with this update, as today coincides with the official release date of Age of Ashes #3. This news applies to the Starfinder side of the site as well!

Enjoy!

Hello everyone! With this update, we bring you a couple of great new additions to the Archives. First is the Lost Omens World Guide, with a host of new archetypes and mechanics tied to the various Regions all around Golarioion. Thanks go to Devin and Milan for this addition! You can expect more Regional features to come in a future update, providing you a central area to access all of the various mechanics tied to a given region.

The second is a long-requested feature for the Archives of Nethys. Alex Reeser, who helped us with the code for the minimized menu, has introduced a new Mobile Appearance/Menu that should give back a lot of space to those of you on your phones, tablets, etc. Please keep in mind that this menu is still in beta, there are a few other features we’re adding before we consider it done. We plan to condense the menu options down into sub-categories, along with adjusting some of the icon layouts. Some of the wider tables will need to be handled better. Lastly, you’ll be getting a Search bar for the search page right in the main menu.

Finally - YES, as soon as the finished mobile view comes (which should be in the next update or two), we’ll push out duplicate versions to Pathfinder 1E and Starfinder. :)

Enjoy the update!
