Server Integration with Discord Plugin FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need this mod on my client or just the server?
This mod only needs to be installed on your server—players joining do not need it. Your Discord bot will send messages to your Discord server automatically once the mod is set up on the Minecraft server side.
How do I connect my Minecraft server to Discord?
You'll need a Discord bot token and the mod's configuration file. Add your bot token to the mod's config, point it to your Discord server ID, and restart the server. The mod will then begin sending events to your configured Discord channels.
Which events can I send to Discord?
Common events include player joins and leaves, deaths, chat messages, advancements, and server start/stop. You can enable or disable each event type in the mod's configuration to control what appears in your Discord channels.
Can I send different events to different Discord channels?
Yes—the mod supports channel routing, so you can direct player deaths to one channel, chat to another, and server status to a third. Set this up in the configuration by assigning event types to specific channel IDs.
Why am I not receiving any Discord notifications?
Check that your bot token is correct, the bot has permission to send messages in your target channels, and the events you want are enabled in the config. Restart the server after making any configuration changes.
Can players see their own chat messages repeated in Discord?
By default, yes—in-game chat is mirrored to Discord. Most setups filter out bot messages or configure a dedicated chat channel to avoid clutter in your main Discord server.
Does this mod affect server performance?
The mod is lightweight and only sends data to Discord when events occur, so it should have minimal impact on server performance or TPS.
Can I customize how Discord messages look?
Yes—you can edit message formatting, colors, and content in the configuration file to match your server's style and include custom text or emojis.
What happens if my Discord bot goes offline?
The mod will attempt to reconnect automatically. Events that occur while the bot is offline will not be sent, but normal gameplay continues unaffected.
Can I use this mod with other Discord bots on my server?
Yes—this mod works alongside other bots. Just make sure each bot has the correct permissions and is configured to use different channels if needed to avoid conflicts.
