Updates
A running log of what changed on MyITWorld — newest first.

A new look for our e-mails
Every message we send — account confirmation, password reset and report receipts — now arrives in a redesigned layout matching the site's design: the MyITWorld brand colors, clear headings and a prominent action button. Every e-mail also carries a short note explaining what to do if it reaches the wrong person by mistake. The whole interface — including all e-mails — is now translated into Polish, Czech, German, Russian, Ukrainian, Spanish and Chinese, and every e-mail is sent in the language of the page it was requested from. You can also now set a profile picture from your dashboard: after choosing a photo you can drag and zoom to pick exactly the part that shows as your circular avatar, and remove or replace it at any time.

Stronger protection for sign-in and forms
Sign-in and password-reset attempts are now genuinely rate-limited per IP address (the limits previously watched paths that no route serves, so they never fired), and password fields are no longer pre-filled after a failed registration, so a typed password never appears in the page source. New accounts must now confirm their e-mail address by clicking a link we send before signing in, account creation is rate-limited per IP address, and the sign-up form quietly rejects automated submissions. Sign-up links nobody clicks lead to accounts deleted after two weeks.

Reachable at www.myitworld.pl and easier to find in search
The www.myitworld.pl address now works over HTTPS alongside myitworld.pl — both names are served with valid certificates, so you can use either one to visit the site. The site is also easier to discover: descriptive metadata for search engines and social media, per-language page addresses, a sitemap and clearer crawl hints.

Legal foundations: terms, privacy, cookies and reporting
Draft terms of use, privacy policy, cookie policy, good-practice and moderation-standards pages are now available, together with a cookie-consent banner, a content report form with e-mail confirmation, an 18+ age gate for areas with strong language and violence, and account data export and deletion. The cookie settings now show your saved choices. Forgot passwords can now be reset with a link sent by e-mail. The whole interface also got a visual refresh: self-hosted Lato, Merriweather and Pacifico typefaces, a frosted-glass navbar, refined cards, buttons and forms, a lighter cookie banner, and a redesigned footer.

An updates page
Every change to the site now has a home: this page lists what's new, newest first. Behind the scenes, outgoing emails can now be previewed during development.

New homepage, branding and eight languages
A brand-new homepage went live, together with a new icon and social share images. The whole interface is now available in eight languages, and accounts, sign-in and the personal dashboard are up and running.
