Current Beta Features
This was asked in the Discord channel:
"Is there a list of things in beta that are available for testing?"
There are a few ... let us know if you want to be added to any of them!
RSVP Notifications - When a Campaign Member RSVPs yes/no for a Calendar Event, the GM gets an email with the updated RSVPs state for that Calendar Event. A member who is a paid GM wanted this as a way to know if a scheduled gaming session was going to have enough attendees to go forward or not ... without having to continually manually check the status of each Calendar Event. This is in Beta because there's not a self-serve way to turn it off yet, and it applies to all the Campaigns the member is a GM of. But we can turn it off manually on the backend, so feel free to ask to try it if you think it would be helpful for your Campaigns.
Allow Textile JavaScript - Keryth987 had pointed out a way to create popups with Textile using JavaScript. To avoid malicious users abusing that, we disabled the Textile JavaScript. But, we added this Beta feature to allow Textile JavaScript just for specific trusted members, since they had already been using it in their Campaigns. Currently Keryth987 is the only one on this Beta feature.
More Maps - Increases the map limit on a GM's Campaigns to 30.
Public Forums - This is a way to mark a Campaign Forum Topic as "Public" so that visitors to the Campaign that are not members of the Campaign can view that Topic.

Fantastic, thanks for that list. If possible, can you add The Obsidian Sept to the increased maps beta?

@Abersade, done!
Just to clarify, all Beta features are applied per GM, as opposed to per Campaign, so all of the Campaigns you GM now have "More Maps".
Btw, that OP dragon logo on The Obsidian Sept that moves and blows fire is awesome!! : )

I agree the moving, fire-breathing OP dragon is excellent!

While I appreciate being part of the Allow Textile JavaScript I dont relly use Javascript on any of my sights . You probably want to add someone, like Nuadeia, who uses alot of javascript to this
@Keryth987
The Allow Textile JavaScript was from this discussion:

And I think you're using it here to show a popup when a visitor clicks on the calendar image:
