View Channel,Send Messages,Read Message HistoryandEmbed Linksin the channel. - Next, start configuring the module. This includes selecting the channel you just created as the starboard channel.
Usage
- Once set up, users are able to react on messages using the configured starboard emoji.
- As long as they haven't used up their quota of stars per hour, the message will either be sent to the starboard channel or the amount of stars will be increased by one.
Configuration
In this configuration file, you can set up the starboard channel, message and how users can use it in Discord. Open it in your dashboard.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Starboard channel | This configures the channel into which messages starred by users are sent. |
| Emoji | Users can "star" a message by reacting on it with this emoji. |
| Message | This is the message sent in the starboard channel if users react to a message using the configured emoji. There available parameters are visible in your dashboard. |
| Excluded channels | These are channels in which users cannot star a message. Their reaction won't be removed, instead your bot silently ignores it. |
| Excluded roles | These are roles whose members cannot star a message. Their reaction won't be removed, instead your bot silently ignores it. |
| Minimum stars | This is the minimum amount of stars a message needs to be sent to the starboard channel. Burst reactions count as a normal reaction. |
| Stars per user per hour | This configures how many times a user can react on messages per hour. This uses a rolling window, so this value is set to 10 and a user reacts 5 times at 12:00 and 5 times at 12:59, they can react 5 times again at 13:00. Users will receive a DM once they hit this limit. |
| Self-Star | This configures whether users can star their own messages. If a user reacts on a message they sent themselves, their reaction removed to prevent confusion. |
Troubleshooting
Nothing happens when reacting
- Make sure you selected a valid starboard channel and the bot has at least the permissions
View Channel,Send Messages,Read Message HistoryandEmbed Linksin it. - Make sure the starboard emoji is entered correctly and valid.
- Make sure users are actually reacting with the starboard emoji.
- Make sure your configured starboard message is valid - check the error log in your dashboard to find errors.
- Make sure the users try to react haven't reached their star limit within the last hour. Consider increasing the limit or waiting until it ran out.
Stored data
The following data is being stored about every starboard message sent by the bot:
- The message ID of the starred message
- The message ID of the message in the starboard channel
- Metadata about the entry (date when created and last updated)
The bot also stores the following data about every user that has reacted to a message:
- The user ID of the user
- The message ID of the message they starred
- Metadata about the entry (date when created and last updated)
Once a day, all starboard user data older than one hour is removed from the database. You can remove a starboard message from the database by removing all reactions from it. To remove all starboard related data, purge the module database.
