 ## Usage

 To run the CLI in Docker and render help text:

-```
+```console
 docker run --rm tyrrrz/discordchatexporter:stable
 ```

 To export a channel:

-```
+```console
 docker run --rm -v /path/on/machine:/out tyrrrz/discordchatexporter:stable export -t TOKEN -c CHANNELID
 ```

-If you want colored output, real-time progress reporting, and some other stuff, pass `-it` (interactive) option:
+If you want colored output and real-time progress reporting, pass the `-it` (interactive) option:

-```
+```console
 docker run --rm -it -v /path/on/machine:/out tyrrrz/discordchatexporter:stable export -t TOKEN -c CHANNELID
 ```

 Note the `-v /path/on/machine:/out` option, which instructs Docker to bind the `/out` directory inside the container to a path on your host machine. Replace `/path/on/machine` with the directory you want the files to be saved at.

-**If you are running SELinux, you will need to add the `:z` option after `/out`, e.g.:**
-
-```
-docker run --rm -v /path/on/machine:/out:z tyrrrz/discordchatexporter:stable export -t TOKEN -c CHANNELID
-```

 ## Permission issues with Linux hosts

 When bounding volumes between the container and the host, files mirrored from the Docker container will be owned by the Docker user (in most setups this is `root`). Please refer to this [issue comment](https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter/issues/800#issuecomment-1030471970) for instructions on how to override this behavior.

-## Build Docker images for arm on Raspberry Pi
-
-If you use the Docker image on arm (for example Raspberry Pi), you'd build the image as below.
-
-```bash
-$ git clone https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter.git
-$ cd DiscordChatExporter
-$ docker build -f DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dockerfile -t tyrrrz/discordchatexporter:latest .
-```
-
-After a while, some images are built like below.
-
-```bash
-$ docker image ls

-```
-
-Among these, two images (`tyrrrz/discordchatexporter:latest` and `mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/runtime:3.1`) are required, so you may delete the other two images.
-
-Now you can execute DiscordChatExporter:
-
-```bash
-$ docker run --rm tyrrrz/discordchatexporter:latest

-
- **Export format** - HTML (Dark), HTML (Light), TXT, CSV and JSON
-
-Click the menu button (☰) to see more options:
-
- **Date range (after/before)** (Optional) - If set, only messages sent in the provided date range will be exported. Only one value (either after or before) is required if you want to use this option.
-  > **Note**:
-  > Please note that the time defaults to **12:00 AM** (midnight/00:00). This means that if you choose to export between Sep 17th and Sep 18th, messages from Sep 18th won't be exported.
- **Filter** (Optional) - Special notation for filtering the messages that get included in the export. See [Message filters](https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter/blob/master/.docs/Message-filters.md) for more info.
- **Messages per partition** (Optional) - Split output into partitions, each limited to this number of messages (e.g. 100) or file size (e.g. 10mb). For example, a channel with 36 messages set to be partitioned every 10 messages will output 4 files.
- **Download assets** (Optional) - If this option is set, the export will include additional files such as user avatars, attached files, images, etc.
-  Only files that are referenced by the export are downloaded, which means that, for example, user avatars will not be downloaded when using the plain text (TXT) export format.
-  A folder containing the assets will be created along with the exported chat. They must be kept together.
-
-5. Click `EXPORT` to export.

-> **Note**:
-> Options with an asterisk (**\***) are required. The order of the options doesn't matter.
-
-With this command you can export Server Channels and Direct Messages.
-
-##### Basic usage
-
-You can quickly export with DCE's default settings by using just `-t token` and `-c channelid`.
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555
-```
-
-##### Changing the format
-
-You can change the export format to `HtmlDark`, `HtmlLight`, `PlainText` `Json` or `Csv` with `-f format`. The default format is `HtmlDark`.
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -f Json
-```
-
-##### Changing the output filename
-
-You can change the filename by using `-o name.ext`. e.g. for the `HTML` format:
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -o myserver.html
-```
-
-##### Changing the output directory
-
-You can change the export directory by using `-o` and providing a path that ends with a slash or does not have a file extension.
-If any of the folders in the path have a space in its name, escape them with quotes (").
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -o "C:\Discord Exports"
-```
-
-##### Changing the filename and output directory
-
-You can change both the filename and export directory by using `-o directory\name.ext`.
-Note that the filename must have an extension, otherwise it will be considered a directory name.
-If any of the folders in the path have a space in its name, escape them with quotes (").
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -o "C:\Discord Exports\myserver.html"
-```
-
-##### Generating the filename and output directory dynamically
-
-You can use template tokens to generate the output file path based on the guild and channel metadata.
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -o "C:\Discord Exports\%G\%T\%C.html"
-```
-
-Assuming you are exporting a channel named `"my-channel"` in the `"Text channels"` category from a server called `"My server"`, you will get the following output file path: `C:\Discord Exports\My server\Text channels\my-channel.html`
-
-Here is the full list of supported template tokens:
-
- `%g` - guild ID
- `%G` - guild name
- `%t` - category ID
- `%T` - category name
- `%c` - channel ID
- `%C` - channel name
- `%p` - channel position
- `%P` - category position
- `%a` - the "after" date
- `%b` - the "before" date
- `%%` - escapes `%`
-
-##### Partitioning
-
-You can use partitioning to split files after a given number of messages or file size.
-For example, a channel with 36 messages set to be partitioned every 10 messages will output 4 files.
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -p 10
-```
-
-A 45mb channel set to be partitioned every 20mb will output 3 files.
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -p 20mb
-```
-
-##### Downloading assets
-
-If this option is set, the export will include additional files such as user avatars, attached files, images, etc.
-Only files that are referenced by the export are downloaded, which means that, for example, user avatars will not be downloaded when using the plain text (TXT) export format.
-A folder containing the assets will be created along with the exported chat. They must be kept together.
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --media
-```
-
-##### Reuse assets
-
-Previously downloaded assets can be reused to skip redundant downloads as long as the chat is always exported to the same folder. Using this option can speed up future exports. This option requires the `--media` option.
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --media --reuse-media
-```
-
-##### Date formats
-
-This setting changes how dates are formatted in the exported files.
-
- The default one is `17-Sep-19 11:34 PM` - `dd-MMM-yy hh:mm tt`
- To change it to `09-17-19 11:34 PM` use `MM-dd-yy hh:mm tt`
- To change it to `17/09/2019 23:34` use `dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm`
- To change it to `2019-09-17 23:34:05.6534` use `yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.ffff`
- To change it to UTC `2019-09-18 04:34:05Z` use `u`
- To display the time zone, add `K`. E.g. to change it to `17-Sep-19 11:34 PM (UTC-05:00)` use `dd-MMM-yy hh:mm tt (UTCK)`
- To change it to Unix time `1568694845` use `unix`
- To change it to Unix time in milliseconds `1568694845653` use `unixms`
-
-More info about .NET date formats [here](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/base-types/custom-date-and-time-format-strings).
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --dateformat "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm"
-```
-
-> Special thanks to [@andrewkolos](https://github.com/andrewkolos) for adding the Unix options
-
-##### Date ranges
-
-**Messages sent before a date**
-Use `--before` to export messages sent before the provided date. E.g. messages sent before September 18th, 2019:
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --before 2019-09-18
-```
-
-**Messages sent after a date**
-Use `--after` to export messages sent after the provided date. E.g. messages sent after September 17th, 2019 11:34 PM:
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --after "2019-09-17 23:34"
-```
-
-**Messages sent in a date range**
-Use `--before` and `--after` to export messages sent during the provided date range. E.g. messages sent between September 17th, 2019 11:34 PM and September 18th:
-
-```powershell
-dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --after "2019-09-17 23:34" --before "2019-09-18"
-```
-
-You can try different formats like `17-SEP-2019 11:34 PM` or even refine your ranges down to milliseconds `17-SEP-2019 23:45:30.6170`!
-Don't forget to quote (") the date if it has spaces!

 If you need to include quotes inside the filter itself as well, use single quotes (`'`) for those instead:

+## Guide
+
+> **Note**:
+> Make sure you have [.NET Core installed](https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter/blob/master/.docs/Dotnet.md) before attempting to run the commands below.
+> **Docker** users, please refer to the [Docker usage instructions](https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter/blob/master/.docs/Docker.md).
+
+## Step 1
+
+After extracting the `.zip`, open Command Prompt, aka `cmd` (`Terminal` on **macOS** and **Linux**).
+
+## Step 2
+
+Change the current directory to DCE's folder with `cd C:\path\to\directory`, then press ENTER to run the command.
+
+**Windows** users can quickly get the directory's path by clicking the address bar while inside the folder.
+![Copy path from Explorer](https://i.imgur.com/XncnhC2.gif)
+
+**macOS** users can select the `.exe`, hit Command+I (⌘I), and copy what's after `Where:` to get the directory
+![Mac info panel](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/3c51a904b0099c9f68a4797461d4a7914902fc04/68747470733a2f2f692e696d6775722e636f6d2f323975364e79782e706e67)
+
+You can also drag and drop the folder on **every platform**.

+
+## Step 3
+
+Now we're ready to run the commands. The examples on this page follow the Windows file path format, change the file paths according to your system.
+
+Type the following in Command Prompt (Terminal), then press ENTER to run it. This will list DCE's options.

+
+#### Basic usage
+
+You can quickly export with DCE's default settings by using just `-t token` and `-c channelid`.
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555
+```
+
+#### Changing the format
+
+You can change the export format to `HtmlDark`, `HtmlLight`, `PlainText` `Json` or `Csv` with `-f format`. The default format is `HtmlDark`.
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -f Json
+```
+
+#### Changing the output filename
+
+You can change the filename by using `-o name.ext`. e.g. for the `HTML` format:
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -o myserver.html
+```
+
+#### Changing the output directory
+
+You can change the export directory by using `-o` and providing a path that ends with a slash or does not have a file extension.
+If any of the folders in the path have a space in its name, escape them with quotes (").
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -o "C:\Discord Exports"
+```
+
+#### Changing the filename and output directory
+
+You can change both the filename and export directory by using `-o directory\name.ext`.
+Note that the filename must have an extension, otherwise it will be considered a directory name.
+If any of the folders in the path have a space in its name, escape them with quotes (").
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -o "C:\Discord Exports\myserver.html"
+```
+
+#### Generating the filename and output directory dynamically
+
+You can use template tokens to generate the output file path based on the guild and channel metadata.
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -o "C:\Discord Exports\%G\%T\%C.html"
+```
+
+Assuming you are exporting a channel named `"my-channel"` in the `"Text channels"` category from a server called `"My server"`, you will get the following output file path: `C:\Discord Exports\My server\Text channels\my-channel.html`
+
+Here is the full list of supported template tokens:
+
+- `%g` - guild ID
+- `%G` - guild name
+- `%t` - category ID
+- `%T` - category name
+- `%c` - channel ID
+- `%C` - channel name
+- `%p` - channel position
+- `%P` - category position
+- `%a` - the "after" date
+- `%b` - the "before" date
+- `%%` - escapes `%`
+
+#### Partitioning
+
+You can use partitioning to split files after a given number of messages or file size.
+For example, a channel with 36 messages set to be partitioned every 10 messages will output 4 files.
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -p 10
+```
+
+A 45 MB channel set to be partitioned every 20 MB will output 3 files.
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 -p 20mb
+```
+
+#### Downloading assets
+
+If this option is set, the export will include additional files such as user avatars, attached files, images, etc.
+Only files that are referenced by the export are downloaded, which means that, for example, user avatars will not be downloaded when using the plain text (TXT) export format.
+A folder containing the assets will be created along with the exported chat. They must be kept together.
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --media
+```
+
+#### Reusing assets
+
+Previously downloaded assets can be reused to skip redundant downloads as long as the chat is always exported to the same folder. Using this option can speed up future exports. This option requires the `--media` option.
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --media --reuse-media
+```
+
+#### Changing the media directory
+
+By default, the media directory is created alongside the exported chat. You can change this by using `--media-dir` and providing a path that ends with a slash. All of the exported media will be stored in this directory.
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --media --media-dir "C:\Discord Media"
+```
+
+#### Changing the date format
+
+You can customize how dates are formatted in the exported files by using `--locale` and inserting one of Discord's locales. The default locale is `en-US`.
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --locale "de-DE"
+```
+
+#### Date ranges
+
+**Messages sent before a date**
+Use `--before` to export messages sent before the provided date. E.g. messages sent before September 18th, 2019:
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --before 2019-09-18
+```
+
+**Messages sent after a date**
+Use `--after` to export messages sent after the provided date. E.g. messages sent after September 17th, 2019 11:34 PM:
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --after "2019-09-17 23:34"
+```
+
+**Messages sent in a date range**
+Use `--before` and `--after` to export messages sent during the provided date range. E.g. messages sent between September 17th, 2019 11:34 PM and September 18th:
+
+```console
+dotnet DiscordChatExporter.Cli.dll export -t "mfa.Ifrn" -c 53555 --after "2019-09-17 23:34" --before "2019-09-18"
+```
+
+You can try different formats like `17-SEP-2019 11:34 PM` or even refine your ranges down to milliseconds `17-SEP-2019 23:45:30.6170`!
+Don't forget to quote (") the date if it has spaces!
+More info about .NET date formats [here](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/base-types/custom-date-and-time-format-strings).

+## Video tutorial
+
+[![Video tutorial](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/jjtu0VQXV7I/hqdefault.jpg)](https://youtube.com/watch?v=jjtu0VQXV7I)
+
+> Video by [NoIntro Tutorials](https://youtube.com/channel/UCFezKSxdNKJe77-hYiuXu3Q).
+
+## Guide
+
+### Step 1
+
+After extracting the `.zip`, open `DiscordChatExporter.exe`
+
+### Step 2
+
+Please refer to the on-screen instructions to get your token, then paste your token in the upper text box and hit ENTER or click the arrow (→).
+
+> **Warning**:
+> **Never share your token!**
+> A token gives full access to an account, treat it like a password.
+
+<img src="https://i.imgur.com/SuLQ5tZ.png" height="400"/>
+
+### Step 3
+
+DCE will display your Direct Messages and a sidebar with your server list. Select the channel you would like to export, then click the ![Screenshot](https://i.imgur.com/dnTOlDa.png) button to continue.
+
+> **Note**:
+> You can export multiple channels at once by holding `CTRL` or `SHIFT` while selecting.
+> You can also double-click a channel to export it without clicking the ![Screenshot](https://i.imgur.com/dnTOlDa.png) button.
+
+<img src="https://i.imgur.com/JHMFRh2.png" height="400"/>
+
+### Step 4
+
+In this screen you can customize the following:
+
+- **Output path** - The folder where the exported chat(s) will be saved.
+
+- **Export format** - HTML (Dark), HTML (Light), TXT, CSV and JSON
+
+- **Date range (after/before)** (Optional) - If set, only messages sent in the provided date range will be exported. Only one value (either after or before) is required if you want to use this option.
+  > **Note**:
+  > Please note that the time defaults to **12:00 AM** (midnight/00:00). This means that if you choose to export between Sep 17th and Sep 18th, messages from Sep 18th won't be exported.
+
+- **Partition limit** (Optional) - Split output into partitions, each limited to this number of messages (e.g. 100) or file size (e.g. 10mb). For example, a channel with 36 messages set to be partitioned every 10 messages will output 4 files.
+
+- **Message Filter** (Optional) - Special notation for filtering the messages that get included in the export. See [Message filters](https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter/blob/master/.docs/Message-filters.md) for more info.
+
+- **Format markdown** (Optional) - Disable markdown processing when exporting. You can use this to produce JSON or plain text exports without unwrapping mentions, custom emoji, and certain other special tokens.
+
+- **Download assets** (Optional) - If this option is set, the export will include additional files such as user avatars, attached files, images, etc. Only files that are referenced by the export are downloaded, which means that, for example, user avatars will not be downloaded when using the plain text (TXT) export format. A folder containing the assets will be created along with the exported chat. They must be kept together.
+
+- **Reuse assets** (Optional) - If this option is set, the export will reuse already downloaded assets to skip redundant requests. This option is only available when **Download assets** is enabled.
+
+- **Assets directory path** (Optional) - If this option is set, the export will use the specified directory to store assets from all exported channels in the same place.
+
+> **Note**:
+> You need to scroll down to see all available options.
+
+## Settings
+
+- **Auto-update**
+Perform automatic updates on every launch.
+Default: Enabled
+
+  > **Note**:
+  > Keep this option enabled to receive the latest features and bug fixes!
+
+- **Dark mode**
+Use darker colors in the UI (User Interface).
+Default: Disabled
+
+- **Persist token**
+Persist last used token between sessions.
+Default: Enabled
+
+- **Show threads**
+Controls whether threads are shown in the channel list.
+Default: none
+
+- **Locale**
+Customize how dates are formatted in the exported files.
+
+- **Date format**
+Customize how dates are formatted in the exported files in the settings menu ().
+
+- **Parallel limit**
+The number of channels that will be exported at the same time.
+Default: 1
+
+- **Normalize to UTC**
+Convert all dates to UTC before exporting.
+
+  > **Note**:
+  > Try to keep this number low so that your account doesn't get flagged.

 # Changelog

+## v2.42.3 (09-Nov-2023)
+
+- JSON changes:
+  - Added the `video` field to the embed object, which may contain additional information about an embedded video resource.
+- CSV changes:
+  - Fixed an issue where the `Date` field was incorrectly formatted. Now, the dates follow the `ISO 8601` standard.
+
+## v2.42.2 (26-Oct-2023)
+
+- General changes:
+  - Fixed an issue where trying to export a channel that contained application interactions with empty command names crashed the application.
+
+## v2.42.1 (19-Oct-2023)
+
+- General changes:
+  - Improved the error message shown when trying to export a forum channel. Such channels cannot be exported directly, you need to fetch and export their individual threads instead.
+- CLI changes:
+  - Fixed an issue where fetching threads with `[` or `]` in their name crashed the application.
+
+## v2.42 (12-Oct-2023)
+
+- General changes:
+  - Fixed an issue where the "reuse assets" option did not work as intended due to Discord recently introducing signatures in the CDN URLs. (Thanks [@slatinsky](https://github.com/slatinsky))
+- CLI changes:
+  - Added progress reporting for the "fetching channels" stage of the `exportguild` and `exportall` commands. (Thanks [@slatinsky](https://github.com/slatinsky))
+
+## v2.41.2 (05-Oct-2023)
+
+- General changes:
+  - Added a check that will trigger an error if the provided bot account does not have the message content intent enabled. Unlike the previous attempt, this approach does not rely on heuristics.
+
+## v2.41.1 (28-Sep-2023)
+
+- CLI changes:
+  - Fixed an issue where the export failed to export channels with an empty name.
+
+## v2.41 (15-Sep-2023)
+
+- General changes:
+  - Replaced the "date format" option with a "locale" option. Now, you can choose one of the locales supported by the Discord app, and DiscordChatExporter will infer all the required date, time, and number formats automatically. In GUI, the locale can be selected from the settings window. In CLI, the locale can be specified using the `--locale` option (e.g. `--locale "en-US"`). By default, the current system locale is used.
+  - Optimized the algorithm for fetching threads to improve performance. (Thanks [@slatinsky](https://github.com/slatinsky))
+- GUI changes:
+  - Improved the initial load time after submitting the token. Now, only the guilds are loaded initially, and the channels are loaded on-demand when the user selects a guild. This should significantly improve performance for accounts with many guilds.
+  - Added an option to include threads in the channel list, which is configurable in settings. When enabled, threads will appear at the bottom of the list, grouped by the parent channel. Note that pulling threads (especially archived threads) can be a very time-consuming process, depending on the guild size. By default, threads are not included.
+- CLI changes:
+  - Added a warning when using the `--bot` option, informing that it's obsolete and shouldn't be used.
+  - Changed the `--include-threads` option on the `channels` command from a switch (boolean) option, to an enum (choice) option. It now has possible values of `none`, `active`, or `all`, indicating which threads should be included. To include both active and archived threads, use `--include-threads all`. For backwards compatibility, the `--include-threads` option can still be used as a switch, in which case it will be treated as `--include-threads active`. Note that pulling threads (especially archived threads) can be a very time-consuming process, depending on the guild size.
+  - Added the `--include-threads` option to the `exportguild` and `exportall` commands. Using this option, you can specify whether to include threads (and which type) in the export. By default, threads are not included.
+  - Added the `--include-vc` option to the `channels` command. Using this option, you can specify whether to include voice-channel-accompanying text channels in the output. By default, these channels are included.
+  - Changed the progress reporting behavior of export commands such that tasks are now hidden on completion if parallelization is enabled (i.e. `--parallel` is set to `2` or higher). This should help improve visual clarity when exporting many channels in parallel.
+
+## v2.40.4 (11-Aug-2023)
+
+- HTML changes:
+  - Fixed an issue where the "call lasted for X minutes" system message was unnecessarily too precise. Now, it's rounded to the nearest minute.
+  - Fixed an issue where multi-line quote blocks with empty lines in the middle were rendered as separate blocks.
+- JSON changes:
+  - Added the `users` field to the reaction object, containing an array with limited information about the users that reacted with that particular emoji. (Thanks [@slatinsky](https://github.com/slatinsky))
+
+## v2.40.3 (29-Jul-2023)
+
+- GUI changes:
+  - Fixed an issue where guild categories were rendered with blank names.

  - Added a text box for specifying the output path when exporting channels. It can be used to set an output path that uses template tokens, which previously required hacky workarounds.
