How to Set Up and Use DiscordSRV

The DiscordSRV plugin lets you connect your Discord chat with your Minecraft chat. It’s a powerful tool for making your server more fun and modern.

Step 1: Installing DiscordSRV

1. Head over to the Game Panel and turn off your server.
2. Navigate to the plugins folder and install the correct version of DiscordSRV for your server.

2. Start your server so the necessary configuration files are generated.

Step 2: Creating a Discord Bot Application

1. Go to the Discord Developer Portal and create a new application.

2. Go to Installation and change the install link to none.

3. Go to Bot and make the bot private.

4. Enable Presence Intent, Server Member Intent, and Message Content Intent. These are required by the DiscordSRV plugin.

Step 3: Connecting the Bot to the Server

1. Reset the bot’s token.

2. Copy your bot’s new token. Don’t share this token with anyone as they can take control of the bot’s permissions if you do.

3. Inside of the DiscordSRV config file, change the BotToken ID on Line 9 to the one we copied in the previous step.

4. Save the config.
5. Go to General Information and copy the Application ID.

6. Go to the following link, but add the Application ID to the end of it: https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?scope=bot+applications.commands&client_id=

7. Add it to your server.
8. Go to your Discord Settings → Advanced and enable Developer Mode.

9. Right click on the desired Text Channel that will be used between Discord and Minecraft, and Copy the ID.

10. Change the ID on Line 30 of config.yml to the copied one.

11. Create a role and give it administrator permissions.

12. Give the bot the newly created role.

13. Restart the server and everything should be synced.
