Upgrading to v1.33.0
====================

Account Validity HTML templates can now display a user's expiration date
------------------------------------------------------------------------

This may affect you if you have enabled the account validity feature, and have made use of a
custom HTML template specified by the ``account_validity.template_dir`` or ``account_validity.account_renewed_html_path``
Synapse config options.

The template can now accept an ``expiration_ts`` variable, which represents the unix timestamp in milliseconds for the
future date of which their account has been renewed until. See the
`default template <https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.33.0/synapse/res/templates/account_renewed.html>`_
for an example of usage.

ALso note that a new HTML template, ``account_previously_renewed.html``, has been added. This is is shown to users
when they attempt to renew their account with a valid renewal token that has already been used before. The default
template contents can been found
`here <https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.33.0/synapse/res/templates/account_previously_renewed.html>`_,
and can also accept an ``expiration_ts`` variable. This template replaces the error message users would previously see
upon attempting to use a valid renewal token more than once.

Don't return an error when a user attempts to renew their account multiple times with the same token. Instead, state when their account is set to expire. This change concerns the optional account validity feature.

fwiw we've completely removed options like this from the sample config in the past, but this seems fine for now at least.

Hmm, I'm not too opposed to that really. But I think we should do it in a separate PR anyhow.
