Starboard

Repost popular messages into a highlights channel.

Starboard reposts messages into a highlights channel once enough people react to them. It runs on its own after a three-command setup.

```
,starboard set #highlights

2

```
,starboard emoji ⭐

3
Set how many reactions are needed
```
,starboard threshold 5

Tuning#

Parameter	Type	Description
thresholdrequired	number	Reactions required before a message is reposted. Scale it with how active the server is — 3 on a small server, 10+ on a busy one.
emojirequired	emoji	The reaction that counts. Custom server emoji work as well as standard ones.
attachments	toggle	Whether images and files from the original message are carried across to the repost.
color	hex	Accent colour of the starboard embed.

,starboard attachmentsManage Server

Toggle whether attachments are included in reposts.

,starboard color <hex>Manage Server

Set the accent colour of the starboard embed.

,starboard ignore <channel>Manage Server

Exclude a channel from starboard entirely.

Set the threshold above one

A threshold of 1 reposts anything a single person reacts to, which floods the channel and makes the highlight meaningless. Three is a reasonable floor.

Keep private channels out

Use ,starboard ignore on staff and NSFW channels so their contents cannot be surfaced into a public highlights feed by reactions.
