Events

Off by default

Kovu announces the events you create in Discord with a card and an RSVP button, gives everyone who RSVPs a role so reminders can ping them, posts when the event starts and says how many came when it ends. Kovu never creates or edits your events.

On this page
  1. Open the dashboard and pick your server. Sign in with Discord if you haven’t.
  2. Find Events in the module list (press / to filter it, or ⌘K and type its name) and turn it on.
  3. Go through the settings below. Simple mode shows the essentials; switch to Advanced for the rest.
  4. Changes apply in your server within a few seconds of saving.

Tips

  • Pick a role to place event roles under, below Kovu’s highest role and below your staff roles: everyone who RSVPs outranks every role under it. With none picked, event roles sit at the bottom of the list. They get no permissions, and Kovu deletes them when the event is over.
  • Set Which events to Chosen to announce only some events: switch them on under Upcoming events on the Events page.
  • Turn on Offer reminder DMs so members can ask for a DM before the start, on top of the ping in the channel.
  • For voice and stage events, the end post counts who joined the channel while the event ran. For other events it counts the RSVPs.
  • Members already in the voice channel when the event is created aren’t counted until they rejoin it.

Announcements

Kovu works with the events you create in Discord. It never creates or edits them.

Announcement channelChannel
Kovu posts each event’s card here, then its reminders, start and end. Empty means nothing is posted.
Which eventsChoice
All announces every new event. Chosen announces only the events you switch on under Upcoming events.

RSVP

RSVP givesChoice
Role gives members who RSVP a role for the event, so reminders can ping them. List only keeps track of who is going.
Place event roles underRole
Kovu creates each event’s role right under this role, with no permissions. Everyone who RSVPs then outranks every role below it, so keep it below your staff roles. Empty leaves the role at the bottom of the list, where Discord creates it.
Count Discord’s InterestedOn/off
Members who press Interested on the event in Discord count as going too.
RSVP button labelText
Up to 80 characters. Empty uses “RSVP” in your server’s language.

Reminders

Remind beforeSetting
Up to 5 reminders, each from 5 minutes to 7 days before the start. Times already past when the event is created are skipped.
Ping the event roleOn/off
Reminders mention the event’s role, so everyone who RSVPed gets a ping.
Offer reminder DMsOn/off
Members who RSVP can ask Kovu to DM them the reminders too.

Start and end posts

Post when it startsOn/off
A reply to the event’s card when the event starts.
Post when it endsOn/off
Says how many people joined the voice or stage channel, or how many RSVPed for other events.

Cleanup

Delete event roles afterwardsOn/off
Kovu deletes the role it created for an event once the event ends or is canceled. It never deletes any other role.
