New Feature!
We have a gift for all of you! Journal ratings are live—you can now rate the content of your journals the same as you would submissions. Please keep in mind that while we’ve added ratings to journals, they must still follow the same rules outlined in our Content Rating Policies and are still subject to the Code of Conduct. This is just another way to give people a heads up for content in journals. All journals posted previously on your accounts will by default have a [G] General rating on them.
FAQ
Q: What happened to links? They aren't working!
A: We are aware that links not enclosed in the |url| BBCode are not working as intended.
Our techs are actively working on resolving this issue, we hope to have this addressed by the end of today (11/29/2025 PST).
We hope everyone got to enjoy their feast! Reminder to be excellent to each other ❤️

FA+

Did you have a hand in this, somehow?
Not really beyond helping tech with testing - I made two test journals in my account beforehand, then deleted them. ^.=.^
Also we caught and fixed one smol bug before it was pushed to live!
(But also yay new feature!)
Also TWEWY - great choice for a favorite game! Has one of my favorite villains of all-time. ^.=.^
If you don't know who it is, then you're soooo zetta-slow!
(Finding another twewy fan in the wild feels unreal tbh so happy to meet you bro!)
I thought after NEO they were done!
apologies, having an honestly awful day
As for journals, when we say they have to follow our rules they should be:
- Rated appropriately
- Must not break our Code of Conduct
- Must not break our Terms of Service
While it is cliche to tell you to review our policies, we do suggest you do so and decide if you need to remove or modify anything that we cannot host.
If you have any specific journals that you are worried about, you can ask us to review individual journals without penalty to you. We would much rather work with individuals than bonk and remove things. :)
(afeared gulp)
BEEEEEG INBOX
And I do like the new QoL improvement to the journals, plus seeing the new ratings in the notifications is a great touch!
Must ask though, how will older journals get rated? Especially for unused accounts?
Well done! Time to stay cozy and warm.
Loving the tag blocking you implemented btw. It's a bit of work but it's made it easier to spot art that caters to my interests.
An update to the BBCode system had to be made, and it had some edge case impacts; tech's already on it and hopes to have a fix done very soon.
Sorry about that!
On this topic, who would we contact if we're still noticing additional issues with the BBCode? In particular the quote function, color not working correctly, and a ★ symbol disappearing. Thank you.
All my non-url-blocked links on every post seem to be... uhh... not links anymore. The line generated by a bunch of - in a row also seems to have multiplied a bunch!
Tech's already on it and hopes to have a fix very soon (like, an hour or so).
Sorry about that!!
"We've addressed the issue. Feel free to report any further BBCode regressions as we wait for the dust to settle."
You should be good to go! :3
Fixes should be in place over the next few days as we test and address any gaps due to the new system, so these regressions should be solved soon! Thank you for your patience.
Thank (y)
Not trying to be difficult, I think journal ratings definitely are something super important. Just want to see the viewpoint on things like that to make sure acceptability and what is considered okay is the same in journals as ob profile pages etc. so it makes sense! Thank you for any clarity~
I would advise to review your journals; technically, all journals until now had to be rated "General", as per our Code of Conduct.
With the new system that follows the Ratings Upload Policy, we are providing more flexibility that wasn't present before.
I understand that it sucks to go back, but better safe than sorry! :3
To reproduce:
1. Access gallery page https://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/anomalous-furball/
2. Click on any story post.
3. Error occurs in the container window instead of the story text. Story text does not display.
I posted a story earlier today at 4:30 and it displayed normally and now they're *all* throwing the same error. I have submitted a trouble ticket.
The journal rating feature is lovely, good job!
This would be treated like a reminder; as per our 2.1 Reminders Upload Policy, the reminder's rating must match the highest content rating of the submission(s) being promoted.
As such, your reminder journal would have to also be rated Mature/Adult.
I hope this helps!
Also, I've just noticed that text formatting in posts has broken, links are no longer working too D:
I've forwarded it to the Tech team; they will need a bit of time to look into what's going on.
Hopefully, that'll be resolved soon.
I was wondering; would it be possible to add a feature where the blacklisted tag is shown on hidden submissions when you hover your mouse pointer over the submission? So you don't have to go to the submission page to see why it is blacklisted.
Edit: Or possibly include an option to remove the blacklisted submissions from view altogether so it doesn't clog up the user's feed.
Part of the next step for tag blocking is to allow between blurring or simply not showing the submission.
We don't have an ETA at this time for this update, but it is being worked on. :3
Hiii Rednef ❤️🌸
And sweet! this is a really nice Black Friday deal 🥰
LOVE THIS BANNER GAHHHHHHHH
AAAAAAA
This is being investigated by the Tech team right now. It's not really intended behaviour...
Sorry about that!
Thanks for the update!
how did those get reverted fml
thank you for the heads up
I tried adding one to my cart with another shirt and it was still showing as full price.
What are weighted campaigns? I don't see any mentioning of that on the advertising page.
Example: you have two campaigns. Both are base weight, so they have a 50% chance of pulling.
One gets weighted to 2. Now that weighted campaign has a 66% chance of showing while the other has a pull of 33%.
My page suddenly has [/color] [/b] and [/i] , and links no longer work… but no one else’s pages appear to be having the same issue.
Has there been a new code update or something?
Ex: some of of my coding was like center b /center /b
( /b has to come before / Center due to the way its placed)
Not sure why this is only happening now tho,
RAAAAAAAH! My pretty orange colors disappeared :(
Meanwhile we've got artists that have X-rated banners featuring X-rated acts and bodily fluids, but that's fine as long as they're popular I guess.

Maybe the link too? I've been playing around with how to advertise my shop. 🤔
I might grab some adds. 💙
Yes, we do permit you to change out creatives/ links during your campaign. We just ask you keep it to a reasonable frequency.
(Seems the desktop retro version on mobile actually looks decent now! Gonna try to be more open to it, did not like the new UI before when I tried)
I have a kaiju package running indefinitely, and I would like to take advantage of the ad offer, even though it is not time for me to renew my plan.
as a permanent customer I believe this is only fair.
We do not require your campaign to be over before you are allowed to renew it. You may fill out the advertiser intake form at any time or email us so I can send it over.
We do not have permanent/ lifetime slots available, but you are welcome to grab multi-years.
Ordered List example (I'll replace "[" and "]" with "{" and "}" so you can see what it looks like under the hood):
{ol}
{li}Item one{/li}
{li}Item two{/li}
{/ol}
Unordered List Example:
{ul}
{li}Item one{/li}
{li}Item two{/li}
{/ul}
Thanks for the reply :3
Did this update break this by accident?
I have a comic uploaded here that's more than 200 pages long and it relied on the urls being clickable. Do I have to go back and reformat every page?
I also put in a ticket. I'll close it.
Also, again, the links aren't clickable so it's not like I can touch them. Unless you're telling me not to edit them, in which case sure thing!
EDIT: Devs are aware.
Two years ago, I wrote a journal in Chinese (and in some parts, such as when citing content from Wikipedia, I used English). The content was mostly about complaining that the changes to AUP 2.7 at that time were unreasonable. Now, I've noticed that the latter part of that journal can no longer be viewed normally (it was cut in the middle, but the remaining part can be seen on the edit page).
Also, does this mean we have to set the rating of every single journal we post now??
Fatal System Error!
Internal server error.
(no im joking i love the banner)
Maybe you should prioritize fixing your site before focusing on the optional "for fun" stuff.
Can you like. Not set features up like that? Thanks.
You'd think "confirm this change" and "if it requires entering your password to change it back we probably shouldn't make it an instant change" would be pretty simple stuff. I expected it to show a preview, or go to a page with a different URL like "old.reddit.com", or something...logical. Not just uproot the appearance of the site and say "good luck fixing it I guess"
I’ve already tried your garbage modern theme that you’re slowly making worse and worse. I have no interest in your disgusting mess of modern UI. If you want me to switch willingly, the solution is simple. Do better. Far-fetched concept, I know.
If you have any feedback to improve our modern theme, please feel free to cut us a ticket with the link below:
https://www.furaffinity.net/controls/troubletickets/?issuetype=38
Thank you!
"Okay, grandma, we don't care what you have to say, let's get you out of the public eye."
i also understand that as a user, my opinion is irrelevant, and it's probably only a matter of time before the old layout is lost entirely. i don't know what development looks like on either layout, but i think a button that allows users to toggle layout in a single click without navigating menus, searching settings forms, or entering a password (kind of like the "click here to try modern retro" button, but both ways) might be an easy way to help users gradually adjust to the change. we could toggle to the new layout to use new features like the new rtf format support i've heard about and then toggle back to the old layout when we're done, gradually acclimating to the new layout by exposure so that when the old layout finally passes, though still tragic, maybe it won't be as much of a shock adjusting to the new one.
This is because every journal title varies in text length, which in turn makes the journal rating lost in a jumble of text. However, if the journal rating was to be at the beginning of the journal it would be more visible and easier to see at a first glance.
Good feedback!
Modern is just very non user friendly to me and unless there's work done to make a version like classic, I don't see myself ever switching
I do not like the "modern" UI. the classic UI is completely usable and everything is easy to get to and makes sense. modern seems to have a lot of the features and settings hidden behind menu drop-downs, which i'm sure are even worse on mobile.
I also saw a comment above about "sunsetting" the classic theme. Does this mean all users will be forced to switch? I don't use FA a whole lot anymore, but that kind of change will push users like myself even further away. You don't need a new UI, and you never did.
It's something that's actually very very upsetting to me
I'd suggest submitting a ticket with that feedback. ;3
We prefer to be able to review your creatives before we will allow you into our inventory/ move you along the payment pipeline. However, if you want to email us and discuss how long you were looking to wait, we can send over our creatives guidelines and go from there.
