DiscordSRV

DiscordSRV

VotingPlugin can send reward messages and maintain all-time, monthly, weekly, and daily top-voter leaderboards through DiscordSRV.

Availability: DiscordSRV leaderboards and the manual message-ID clear command are available in the latest public release, 7.1.1. The AutoRecoverMessageOnFailure option and automatic recovery behavior are available only in development builds containing VotingPlugin PR #1542, merged after 7.1.1.

Install and configure DiscordSRV first, then enable the integration in Config.yml:

DiscordSRV:
  Enabled: true

  TopVoter:
    # Development builds after 7.1.1: recover if a stored message was deleted
    AutoRecoverMessageOnFailure: true

    Monthly:
      Enabled: true
      NewMessageOnUpdate: false
      Channel: 123456789012345678
      Title: 'Top Voters of the Month'

Replace Channel with the numeric Discord channel ID. The same structure is available under AllTime, Weekly, and Daily.

Updating or creating leaderboard messages

NewMessageOnUpdate controls whether VotingPlugin edits one leaderboard message or keeps posting new messages:

Value	Behavior
false	Store the message ID and edit that message during later updates.
true	Post a new message on each update instead of maintaining one stored message.

When NewMessageOnUpdate: false, deleting the stored Discord message used to leave later edits targeting an invalid ID. With AutoRecoverMessageOnFailure: true (the default), an Unknown Message response causes VotingPlugin to clear the stale ID, post one replacement, and persist the replacement ID for later updates.

Recovery is serialized per leaderboard so overlapping updates do not create multiple replacement messages.

Manual recovery

Use the admin command when automatic recovery is disabled or when you need to force the next update to create a message:

/av ClearDiscordMessageID Monthly

Use AllTime, Monthly, Weekly, or Daily for the final argument. The permission is:

VotingPlugin.Commands.AdminVote.ClearDiscordMessageID

Troubleshooting

• Channel not found: verify the numeric channel ID and confirm DiscordSRV's bot can see the channel.
• Missing permissions: allow the bot to view the channel, send messages, and embed links.
• Deleted leaderboard does not return: confirm AutoRecoverMessageOnFailure: true and NewMessageOnUpdate: false, then use the manual clear command if necessary.
• Other edit errors: automatic recovery is intentionally limited to Discord's Unknown Message response. Correct channel, permission, or DiscordSRV connection errors instead of repeatedly clearing the stored ID.
