Post a pinned Discord panel with the city's status, players online, connect address and link buttons, refreshed every minute.
Connect is the sign at the city’s entrance: a pinned message in a Discord channel that shows whether the server is online, how many people are playing and the address to type in F8. The bot updates the panel on its own every minute. This page is for the owner and the staff who run the server’s Discord.

The panel is an embed with:
48/128), only with Show players on and the server online;connect followed by the Connect address;The bot checks the server every minute. Before showing offline, it tries again a moment later, so a hiccup doesn’t turn the panel “Offline”. The panel is only edited when something changes (or always, with Time of the last check on).
In the dashboard, go to Discord → Connect.
Under Panel → Channel, pick the Panel channel.
Under Server → Connect address, write what players type in F8. It can be an IP, a domain or the cfx.re link (e.g. play.examplecity.com). If you paste “connect play…”, the “connect” part is removed on its own.
Under Buttons, turn on Join the city button and click Add a link (store, rules, Instagram…) for links. Drag to reorder.
Turn on the switch at the top (On) and click Save. The bot posts the panel and shows Panel published: “In #channel. It updates itself every minute.”
Once published:
Turn on Server → Maintenance mode and save. The panel shows “Under maintenance” right away, in yellow, whatever the server answers. Turn it off and save when the city is back: the bot checks the server before updating the panel.

| “Discord asked us to wait…” / “Discord didn’t respond…” | The panel updates on the next check. |
The panel shows Offline, but the city is up. The status comes from the Address (optional) saved on the FiveDash server, not from the panel’s Connect address. Check that address.
The Join the city button doesn’t show.
It only exists for servers with a cfx.re code. Save the cfx.re/join/… link as the server’s address in FiveDash.
How is this different from the /ip command?
/ip answers right away, in the channel where it was used, with the server address saved in FiveDash. Connect is a pinned message that updates itself. See Commands.
