YO!O India Update Custom Role Icons & Boosts

Hey Community Admins & Mods!

We’ve got some exciting and important updates that we wanted to share with you today. Hopefully these updates are valuable in helping you build and create world class communities here on Discord.

⭐ Custom Role Icons

We’ve just introduced our newest perk to Level 2 Boosting - custom role icons, which gives you a fun way to customize and distinguish roles in your server. You’ll be able to see this new feature on both desktop and mobile, but you’ll need to use desktop to set, change, or delete icons for now!

Icons for each role will display in the members list and next to each member's name in chat, and you can see all icons associated with your roles in your user profile within the server. The role icon that shows next to someone's name in chat is from their highest role (according to Server Settings > Roles hierarchy).

New Boost Level Pricing

We've reduced the number of boosts for Levels 2 and 3 in Server Boosting by half thanks to feedback from our community. Your servers now need 7 boosts to reach Level 2 and 14 boosts to hit Level 3. It’s possible that at this new price point your server may already be at a new level. You can see what those new perks are under Server Name > Server Boost.

📆 Coming Soon: Scheduled Events

We’ve just started to roll out a new feature: Scheduled Events. This will allow you to plan ahead and schedule events in Voice or Stage channels as well as a free-form option for events being hosted outside of Discord (link or address) or in a text channel.

This will be rolling out to 100% of servers over the next few weeks so be on the lookout. For more information check out our Help Center article here: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/4409494125719

New Discovery Eligibility

Server Discovery member requirement has now dropped from ~~7000~~ to 1000 members. You can go to "Server Settings" > "Discovery" to check if your server is now eligible.

Sunset of Stage Discovery

Finally, we’ve spent some time assessing our latest feature Stage Discovery and where best to serve our communities moving forward. We have made the decision that we will be sunsetting Stage Discovery starting on October 4th. For more info on why we’ve made this decision and what’s to come for communities for the rest of the year check out our latest blog post here: https://discord.com/blog/whats-next-for-communities-at-discord
