Design and publish Discord announcements with live previews.

Updated October 21, 20261 min read

Getting started

1

Choose a channel

Select the Discord destination.

2

Build

Add message content, title, description, color, author, footer, timestamp, image, thumbnail, multiple fields, and link buttons.

3

Use the editor

Reorder fields and buttons, insert Discord and custom emoji, use variables, and watch character limits while editing.

4

Preview

Switch preview widths and review links, spacing, media, inline fields, and mobile readability.

5

Reuse

Save templates, duplicate previous designs, import or export JSON, and reopen published messages for editing.

6

Publish or update

NightCrew verifies the destination belongs to the selected server, then creates or edits the Discord message.

Settings reference

Use this reference when you need to check what a setting does.

Content

Plain message outside the embed; useful for role mentions.

Title/description

Primary embed text.

Color

Left accent border as a six-digit hexadecimal value.

Author

Small identity line at the top.

Fields

Named content blocks displayed inline or full width.

Thumbnail/image

Small upper-right art or full-width lower media.

Footer

Small source or brand line at the bottom.

Buttons

Link buttons with labels and public HTTPS destinations.

How it works

Here’s what happens once you’ve finished setup.

  1. 1
    Editor

    Updates the live preview immediately.

  2. 2
    Publisher

    Validates required values and active-server channel.

  3. 3
    Discord

    Receives content, embed data, media, and components.

Example

EXAMPLE
Rules announcement

Use content to ping @Updates, title `Community Update`, a short summary, three non-inline fields, red accent, NightCrew footer, and a Website link button.
