The web interface has had some major updates within the last few days.

Highlights:
The default theme has been modified to give it a different look.

You can now view specific bans by clicking on them in the ban list:

This page can be used for staff to reference and discuss bans, or for a player to reference their own bans (for example, in a ban appeal) and check whether a ban has expired, and when it will expire.

This page also allows you to click the banned player's name and discover all of their previous punishments, including bans, mutes, warnings, and kicks issued in the past, sorted by date:

The punishment listing page can also now be accessed by using the "Check" button shown above the Bans, Mutes, Warnings, or Kicks list. The "Check" button no longer checks whether a player is banned, but rather shows the list of all punishments.

The web interface now uses UUIDs instead of names to fetch avatars.

Large parts of the web interface were rewritten. The code for litebans-php has been cleaned up and is now much easier to read and modify.
