*ARRgh v0.1.3 — Trending Lane Fan-Out, 18+ Badges, Explicit Fixes

Released: 2026-05-31

Highlights

• Trending lane fan-out — Home shows 4 independent horizontal rows: Manga (MangaUpdates), Manhwa (AniList KR), Manhua (AniList CN), Adult Manhwa (AniList KR adult). Each lane caches independently, serves stale on failure, returns [] (not 502) when down.
• 18+ badge fix — is_explicit now correctly saved when adding titles from Discover/Trending. AddMangaBody now accepts is_explicit field; client sends it.
• 18+ badge in library — MangaCard shows 18+ pill for explicit titles in library view
• NoChaptersMessage — extracted component handles all "no chapters" states in title detail (syncing, sync warning, local-only, no source linked)
• manga18fx lazy-load — pages using data-src placeholder GIF pattern now return correct CDN URLs
• MangaFire removed — CF-protected source removed entirely
• Sync warning accuracy — warning badge only fires when zero sources linked after full sync
• AniList synonym storage — AniList titles store all synonyms as TitleAliases on add
• nginx no-cache for index.html — prevents stale JS bundle references after deploys

What's new

Trending lane fan-out (ADR 0032)

Replaces the single "Trending Now" row with 4 independent horizontal lanes:

| Lane | Heading | Source | Auth |
|------|---------|--------|------|
| /api/discover/trending/manga | Trending Manga | MangaUpdates latest releases | any |
| /api/discover/trending/manhwa | Trending Manhwa | AniList countryOfOrigin:KR | any |
| /api/discover/trending/manhua | Trending Manhua | AniList countryOfOrigin:CN | any |
| /api/discover/trending/adult-manhwa | Trending Adult Manhwa | AniList countryOfOrigin:KR isAdult:true | allow_explicit only — 403 otherwise |

Each lane:

• Independently cached with 1-hour TTL (TrendingCacheService keyed by lane name)
• Serves stale cache on source failure (graceful degradation)
• Returns [] on failure with no stale (never 502)
• Capped at 6 cards
• Renders on empty library (discovery use case)

GET /api/discover/trending (old single endpoint) removed.

is_explicit fix for Discover/Trending adds

AddMangaBody now accepts is_explicit: bool?. Client sends is_explicit: result.is_explicit in addTitle. Server sets IsExplicit from the field OR hentai content_type/tag detection — whichever is true.

Previously, explicit manhwa titles added via Discover/Trending were saved with is_explicit=false regardless of source metadata.

18+ badge in library

MangaCard in the library grid now shows an 18+ pill for titles with is_explicit=true. Consistent with the 18+ pill already shown in Discover search results.

NoChaptersMessage component

Extracted from manga-detail/index.tsx. Handles all "no chapters yet" states:

• Syncing / pending → spinner + "Fetching chapters…"
• Has sync warnings → amber message + Re-sync button
• Local-only (no sources) → informational
• Remote source, no chapters yet → Re-sync button

nginx cache-control for index.html

location = /index.html {
    add_header Cache-Control "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate";
    try_files $uri =404;
}

Prevents browsers from serving a cached index.html that references stale JS/CSS bundles after a Docker image update.

manga18fx lazy-load

Chapters using data-src placeholder GIF pattern now return correct CDN URLs. data-src takes precedence over src.

MangaFire removed

CF-protected source removed entirely — plugin, seeded row, plugin-index entry, all tests.

Sync warning accuracy

Warnings only fire when zero TitleSources rows exist after full sync. Previously fired per-source miss, creating spurious amber badges on successfully-linked titles.

AniList synonym storage

Adding an AniList title stores all synonyms (title.romaji, title.english, and synonyms[]) as TitleAliases for improved fuzzy matching across plugins.
