⭐ Favorite Places and Support

Features

• Save your favorite places

  • Open Favorites from the star button on the map and see how many places you have saved.
  • Give each place a custom name, choose a pixel-art icon, and customize the icon and background colors using the WPlace palette.
  • Your custom icons appear both on the map and in your Favorites list.
  • Quick style presets make customization faster, and the preview warns you if your icon may be difficult to see.

• Organize favorites with folders

  • Create folders, filter your favorites, and reorder both places and folders.
  • When you create a folder while editing a place, that place is automatically added to it.
  • Empty folders are automatically removed.
  • You can hide individual places, entire folders, or all favorite pins from the map.
  • These settings sync with your account.

  • Saved places remember the zoom level you were using.
  • You can share a direct link to a saved place.
  • After saving a new favorite, you can rename it directly from the confirmation notification.

  • Send private feedback, bug reports, staff reports, and other support requests through guided forms.
  • You can open Support from your profile menu, above Patch Notes, or from the Support page.
  • Players below the current level requirement can still contact support by email.

• Manage your support cases

  • View open and completed requests in My Cases.
  • Copy case references or open a case in a separate tab.
