After around 6 months of near daily development and hundreds of hours of total development time if not over a thousand. We are finally ready to release the new point update. This is the largest scale update we have ever done.
Using a role ID, you can do a few different things that may be necessary for a bot or integration to properly function, like interacting with Discord's API to assign certain roles to members. This guide will take you through the steps to quickly find a role ID!
Locating the role ID first requires turning on Discord's Developer Mode which enables options in menus that are primarily used to aid in working with the Discord API.
Sometimes you may need to use the ID of a Discord channel to interact with Discord's API to, for instance, send messages through a bot or integration to a specific channel. With this guide, you can find the ID needed to perform these or any other actions you may need!
Locating the channel ID first requires turning on Discord's Developer Mode which enables options in menus that are primarily used to aid in working with the Discord API.
So you’ve made a server and everything looks good, but you’ve still got an issue. It’s lonely here…
Luckily, you’ve stumbled upon this guide, so relax! I’ve compiled what I’ve learned to make it quick and easy for you to get rolling.
Note: It’s not as hard as you think once you know what to do!
These are usually the first things that come to mind when trying to expand your server. Platforms like Disboard are people’s go to’s.
However, there are necessary steps to take before this can be effective. If you neglect these, you won’t see much growth, if any at all!
A simple guide on adding new translated languages to Monni!
To get started with translating, you'll want to register with an account with Weblate..
Once your account is made, your ready to start. Head to the folder named "Monni bot".
Here is our simple guide on adding a translation projects from English to (Your native language!):
When troubleshooting problems it can be useful to know what server a problem is occurring in. One way to quickly locate a server is using the unique Guild ID given to each individual server.
Locating the Guild ID first requires turning on Discord's Developer Mode which enables options in menus that are primarily used to aid in working with the Discord API.
Discord uses a hierarchy based permissions system for guild management. This is a powerful system, but the ability for hierarchies to overlap and overwrite each other creates a very complex and, at times, difficult-to-understand system. In the hierarchy, the position of a role matters. For example, kicking, banning, or changing roles cannot be done to a person higher than you in the hierarchy.
Administrators can bypass every other hierarchy permission, except for affecting people higher in the hierarchy.
Before we look at how the role hierarchy works in detail, let's go over a few common issues with the role hierarchy system.
Discord has a built-in support for changing who and where slash commands and context menus can be used.
In order to change permissions of commands you need to be an administrator of the server!
Changing these settings isn't supported in the mobile versions of discord.
To get started head to server settings.
Discord has a built in markdown engine. Features of this engine range from typical markdown such as bold and italics to timestamps and code blocks.
| Input | Result |
|---|---|
| Italics | *Italics* or _Italics_ |
| Bold | **Bold** |
| Bold italics | ***Bold italics*** |
| Underline | __Underline__ |
| ~~Strikethrough~~ |
Different text formattings can be combined. For example you can combine underline and italics with
*__underline and italics__*.
Discord has the capabilities to display colored text through code blocks and syntax highlighting. The library discord uses for highlighting is highlight.js. Code blocks also supports ANSI which offers a more controllable coloring experience.
Features discussed in this page aren’t currently supported on mobile!
Discord offers support for ANSI colored text through code blocks. To get started you need to copy the escape unicode character used (\u001b). To copy the raw character use the copy button below.
Now that you know how to copy the escape character, Let’s go over how the ANSI is structured. To be able to send colored messages you need to use the ANSI language on a code block. After that, you need to make sure to use the correct format as a prefix before your text. \u001b[{format code};{ansi code};{ansi code}m. We will go over the codes later on. To reset to default use the \u001b[0m prefix.
Example message with the \u001b character unescaped.
```ansi
[1;31;40mRed text with blue background.
```
