Fourteen new themes, including seven that belong to the communities they are for, six that come back every year, and one limited edition. Your theme now reaches the parts of your page it never used to — your about page, your QR code, your tags, your event dates. You can hold a second account, say your kink is not a sexual one, and fix your email if you typed it wrong.
Your page
Seven community themes — Leather, Rubber, Pup, Fursuit, Bondage, Jock and Little. Free, and in your picker if you are in the community they are for. Each one is built rather than tinted: Pup makes everything a pill, Rubber lights every surface so nothing sits flat, Bondage pulls a taut frame with the narrowest column on Collr, Jock runs a team band down the side that the page indents past, Fursuit is the only theme with two colours in it, and Little has no border anywhere at all.
Six seasonal themes, kink-styled rather than generic holiday — Hallows for Halloween, Midwinter for Christmas, Countdown for New Year, Burns Night, Collared for Valentine’s, and Sun Run for summer. All free, and all back every year on their own.
Top 8, a limited edition and a joke for anyone who had a profile between 2003 and 2008 — a white panel on a loud tiled background, blocky modules with a solid header bar, and blue underlined links. Use it once while it is available and it stays yours for good, even after it retires.
Your page comes back when a season ends. Putting a seasonal theme on used to clear every colour you had chosen, with no way to get them back for a theme that only lasts a fortnight. Collr remembers now, and puts your look back when the window closes.
Your theme reaches the rest of your page. Your about page, your QR code, the date on an event card, your icons and how quickly things move all used to be set the same way for everyone, whatever theme you had picked.
Your tags sit with your connections instead of floating on their own line with a gap above and below, and they take their shape from your theme rather than looking the same on all of them.
Your account
If your handle has four numbers on the end that you never chose, you can take them off. Signing up always added them, even when the plain name was free — so a lot of people are carrying four digits that nothing needed. New accounts do not do that any more, and you can change yours on the Username tab in Account & settings. Your page’s web address changes with it, so anything you have already handed out will still point at the old one.
You can have a second account. Some people want two pages that are not joined up, and until now the only way was to quietly sign up twice. Two in total, made from the Accounts tab in Account & settings, and switched between from the menu at the top. One subscription covers both, and nothing public says they are connected.
You can mark your account non-sexual, on the Accounts tab in Account & settings. Plenty of people are here for the headspace, the gear or the company rather than for sex. Your page says so next to your community and your role, and the sexual tags stop being offered to you.
Age play, Little and Caregiver can now be picked. All three were in Collr’s vocabulary but kept out of the dropdowns, because each needs more room to explain itself than a dropdown gives.
You can correct your email address if you typed it wrong when you signed up. That used to be a dead end — the only things on offer were another link to the same wrong address, or signing out.
Content and safety
Collr no longer hosts explicit photos or video. Nudity and sex acts are linked out to rather than uploaded here.
The Community Guidelines now have a section on kink and fetish content, and it says the quiet part out loud: the whole kink community is welcome, and the same rules apply to all of it, with no category singled out for extra suspicion and none exempt.
A report that content could be mistaken for a minor is looked at ahead of everything else, whichever category it was filed under.
