Patch Notes – May 2025

Owls Value Guide Discontinuation

The Owls Team has announced the end of the NC Value Guide. This means we had to remove support for Owls values (and cool features like filters, sorting, etc.) across the site.

You can read more about their decision here.

You can still view trade history and report your trades through itemdb and the Owls Bot on Discord.

We at itemdb remain committed to making Neopian life easier and more accessible, and we’re continuing to talk with the Owls Team and other awesome projects in the Neopian community 🙂

Widget – itemdb on Castleneo!

Our friends at Castleneo did a great job integrating our widget into their site. We welcome the Spanish-speaking community to itemdb and, as always, we’re open to feedback and suggestions 🙂

New Features

• We added a Average Value to Owls Trade History so you can have an better idea of an item cap price

• We added a hub where you can view all Exclusive Clothes for each species.

• We added a card in Item Page displaying all NC Styles Prismatics variants.

• We added an option to load the color palette from your list’s cover image – so you can better choose the right color for your list!

• We added a changelog for dynamic lists. Just click the ⚡ icon on your dynamic list.

• We made several changes to the profile page:

  • You can now add a description to your profile.

  • You can group your lists to improve the organization of your profile. Just set the “Profile Tag” on your lists and enable “List Group” in your profile’s “Profile Mode” settings.

Quality of Life Improvements

• You can now create dynamic lists from any other list on the site (previously, only official lists – and your own – were allowed).

  This makes it easier for other users to create their own checklists (e.g., a list with ALL stamps on the site, so you don’t need to create a checklist for each album)

  For privacy reasons, lists created before this update have this feature disabled by default. But you can change this setting however you prefer.

• Dynamic Official Lists are now updated automatically when a new item is released (previously, lists were only updated when someone visited them).

• We made a MAJOR change so each page now only loads the translation files it needs. Previously, every page on the site loaded ALL translation data from ALL pages.

• We adjusted item price sorting on lists to treat unpriced items as the most expensive.

• We fine-tuned the “Trending” cards (e.g., trending items, trending lists, etc.) to consider a shorter time frame. This means the info is fresher!

• You can now edit lists directly from your profile page.

• We adjusted sorting on some Official List category pages.

• We also added information about when Official Lists and Trade Lists were last updated.

• We migrated our images to a new content provider – we now use Cloudflare R2.

Bug Fixes

• We cleaned up and fixed issues where the Item Drops card was incorrectly shown for items that don’t have drops.

• We fixed a bug that prevented list sorting on your profile.

• We don’t actually support strikethrough markdown 🙁
