How to link a Minecraft server to Discord
Linking your Minecraft server to your Discord puts both communities in the same conversation.
Open the Discord link template
What you can connect
Chat both ways: what players say in game shows in a Discord channel and the other way round. Account linking: a player runs a command, gets a code, and confirms it on Discord. Roles: a Discord role can follow a player's in-game rank.
How it works here
Pair your server with Elementium once, then add the Discord link template. It uses a short code for linking, so nobody has to type a password anywhere.
Things to decide
Which channel is the chat bridge. Whether Discord messages show in game. Which ranks map to which roles. A staff-only channel is a good place to test.
Questions
Do players need to link to chat?
No. Chat can work for everyone; linking is only needed for roles.
Does it need a separate Discord bot?
You use your Elementium bot in your server; there is nothing extra to host.
