The Big 2026 Mushroom Upgrade: Coming Soon

Hello Mushroomers!

I was hoping to have the big upgrade I’ve been working on ready for release by this weekend but due to the damage caused by the summer bot attack, which is why Mushroom has lots of bugs at the moment, the work has been delayed.

However, the promised upgrade is nearly ready for release and this is what you can expect:

  1. Fully operational RPG area with XP gaining and lives losing buttons with a slew of built in interactive RPG elements (e.g. quizzes, random events) authors can use.
  2. Backend writing editor weirdness eradicated and styling more consistent and user-friendly.
  3. Massive overhaul of styling frontend for a sleeker more consistent look and better navigation listings.
  4. Improved notifications system.
  5. A few residual loopholes plugged (mostly around blogging and XP earning).
  6. A brand new profile badge feature.
  7. A series of ‘how to…’ tutorials.
  8. Version 1 of a Seminar Lesson management app.

Many, many hours of work but nearly complete. However, I’ve been hit by another problem finishing this work: my computer broke 😱
