What are Embeds?

Embeds are rich message formats in Discord that can include:

  • Titles and descriptions
  • Custom colors
  • Organized layouts
  • Enhanced readability

Creating an Embed

  1. Use /create embed [role] command
    • The optional role parameter allows you to ping a role when sending the embed
  2. Fill out the modal with:
    • Title - The main heading for your embed
    • Description - The main content of your embed (supports basic markdown)
  3. Choose a color for the embed’s sidebar
  4. The embed will be sent to the current channel

Available Colors

When creating an embed, you can choose from these color options:

  • Red
  • Green
  • Blue
  • Yellow
  • White
  • Blurple (Discord brand color)
  • Greyple (Discord secondary color)
  • Teal
  • Purple
  • Gold
  • Magenta
  • Fuchsia

Role Pinging

If you want to notify members about important embeds:

  1. Include a role in the command: /create embed @Announcements
  2. For this to work, either:
    • InfiniBot must have Mention Everyone permission, or
    • The target role must have Allow anyone to @mention this role enabled

If permissions are insufficient, InfiniBot will notify you.

Use Cases

Embeds are perfect for:

  • Server rules
  • Announcements
  • Event details
  • Staff information
  • Resource lists
  • Welcome messages
  • Feature explanations

Editing Embeds

To edit an embed after creation:

  1. Right-click on the message
  2. Select “Apps” and then “Options”
  3. Click “Edit Embed”
  4. Make your changes and save

Permissions Required

For embed creation, InfiniBot needs:

  • Send Messages - To send the embed
  • Embed Links - To create the embed formatting
  • Mention Everyone - Optional, only if pinging roles

Tips for Effective Embeds

  • Keep it concise - Avoid walls of text
  • Use markdown - Format with **bold**, *italics*, and `code blocks`
  • Choose appropriate colors - Different colors can convey different message tones
  • Test your embeds - Check how they appear on both desktop and mobile devices
  • Consider accessibility - Ensure your color choices have good contrast
