Getting Started
To customize your server listing, visit your dashboard:
https://communityone.io/dashboard/[YOUR_SERVER_ID]/Select the server you want to edit and follow the sections below.
📋 Setup Checklist
📝 Basic Information
Server Description
Write a clear, compelling description of your server. This is one of the most important factors for discoverability.
Formatting Options:
✅ Markdown - Bold, italics, lists, links
✅ CSS - Custom styling for a unique look
✅ Plain text - Simple and straightforward
Pro tip: Use formatting to highlight what makes your server special!
Language Settings
Select the primary language(s) your server uses. This determines which regions discover your server.
Important: If you select a language, your server will only appear in searches for that language.
Example:
If your server is 50% Japanese and 50% English, select both languages
If you only select Japanese, English-speaking users won't find you
Choose languages that match your actual community
NSFW Content
If your server contains NSFW content, you must mark it as such.
⚠️ Warning: If your server is NSFW and unmarked, we reserve the right to remove it from the platform without notice.
🏷️ Categories
Primary Category
Choose one primary category that best describes your server. You will show up when the user clicks on that category
Secondary Categories
Create custom secondary categories specific to your server. Press Enter to add each one.
Examples:
Valorant players
Pixel art community
Japanese learners
Indie game dev
These help users find exactly what they're looking for and improve your discoverability.
🔍 Search & Discovery
Server Description (Most Important!)
Your description is the #1 factor in how users find you. When AI search launches, it will analyze your description to match users with relevant servers.
Write for:
Clarity about what your server offers
Keywords people might search for
Your server's unique value
Tags & Content
Tags are considered in our ranking algorithm. As AI search improves, we'll introduce secondary tag search to give tags more weight in discovery.
Current approach: Mix detailed descriptions + relevant tags for best results
🔗 Social Links
Add your community's social presence to help users connect with you beyond Discord.
Supported links:
Website/Portfolio
Twitter/X
YouTube
Twitch
Instagram
TikTok
Other social platforms
Users can click these links directly from your listing page.
📊 Analytics Visibility
Default View (Enabled)
By default, your listing shows public analytics including:
📈 Online members
👥 Total members
🔥 Daily active users
💬 Messages per user
🛡️ Active moderators
This transparency builds trust with potential members.
Private View (Disabled)
If you prefer privacy, disable analytics visibility. Instead of exact numbers, potential members will see:
Ranges instead of exact counts
General activity indicators
No specific member data
Toggle in: Visibility Settings → Analytics Visibility
📢 Announcement Channel Sync
Let us automatically publish your server's announcements to your listing page, giving potential members a live view of your activity.
Setup Requirements
Before we sync your announcement channel:
✅ Channel must be announcement-focused
Used primarily for announcements, news, updates
Not a general chat channel
✅ Channel must be publicly viewable
Accessible to new members or the public
Internal staff channels are not allowed
✅ Regular members: Read-only access
Members can view announcements
Members cannot write/post in the channel
Only mods/admins can post
Verification Timeline: We verify channels within 1 business day
How It Works
Once approved, your announcement channel automatically syncs to your listing, showing potential members:
Recent updates and news
How actively you manage the server
Real community activity
🎉 Discord Events Sync
Enable us to display your Discord events on your listing page. This gives members a reason to join—they can see upcoming events before joining!
Event Management
You have full control over which events display:
Show events from:
Selected channels
All public events
Hide events from:
Blacklisted channels
Cancelled/suspended events
How to manage:
Toggle individual events on/off
Blacklist specific channels if needed
Events from blacklisted channels won't appear on your listing
Why This Matters
Users specifically browsing our Events Discovery page can find your server based on activities like:
Game nights
Movie nights
Tournaments
Community events
Active event hosting = more visibility + more members
👁️ Visibility Settings
Make Your Server Public (Default)
Your server appears in search results and browsing.
Hide from Listing (Private)
Toggle: Visibility Settings → Public Server
If disabled:
❌ Won't appear in search results
❌ Won't show in category browse
❌ Only visible via direct link
❌ Won't appear in events discovery
Use this if you want to keep your server invite-only or private.
❓ Common Questions
Q: Can I change my server listing after setup? A: Yes! Go to your dashboard anytime to edit any information.
Q: How long until my announcement channel is verified? A: Usually within 1 business day. You'll receive a notification when approved.
Q: What if my server is private but I want to use listings? A: Keep your server public in the listing settings, but restrict invites in Discord. New members see your listing before they need an invite code.
Q: Can I hide specific events? A: Yes! You can toggle individual events on/off or blacklist entire channels.
Q: Will my analytics data be accurate? A: Yes, if visibility is enabled. Data updates regularly. If you disable visibility, you'll see ranges instead.
