Discord notices
Turn on the private messages the city's bot sends to buyers: payment, delivery, gifts and VIPs about to expire.
Turn on the private messages the city's bot sends to buyers: payment, delivery, gifts and VIPs about to expire.
Discord notices keep buyers in the loop without anyone on the team having to answer. The server’s bot sends a private message (DM) at each moment of the purchase: order received, payment approved, delivery in the city, a gift from the team and a VIP about to expire, with a button to renew. You turn them on, write them and test them in Store → Discord notices.

| Order details | Number, total, items and who receives it (for VIPs, when it expires) below the text. | On |

Hover over or click Edit on the notice you want to test. The preview shows that notice.
In Send a test, paste your Discord ID (numbers only, 17 to 20 digits). You need to be in the bot’s server.
Click Send. The notice arrives in your DM as shown in the preview, with sample data and the line “Test: this is how the player gets it.” The test uses the texts on screen, even before saving, and doesn’t go into the history.
At the top, Notice numbers shows Sent · 7 days (with the week before), Delivered, Not delivered and VIPs expiring in the next 7 days.
The Recently sent list shows every message the bot sent (or tried to). Filter by All, Delivered or Not delivered and click Refresh to read it again.
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| Delivered | Discord delivered the message. |
| Not delivered | Discord didn’t deliver it. The reason shows on the row. |
| Empty | The message was empty and wasn’t sent. |
| Reason | What to do |
|---|---|
| The player has private messages closed or isn’t in the Discord server. | Ask the player to join the server and allow DMs from it. |
| Discord asked us to wait (too many messages at once). | Nothing: it’s a Discord limit during sales peaks. |
| Discord rejected the bot’s token. | Replace the token in the bot’s module. |
| The Discord bot hasn’t finished setting up yet. | Finish the setup in Discord → Bot. |
A buyer didn’t get the notice. Why? Look for their row in Recently sent. The most common reasons are closed DMs or the player not being in the Discord server. If there’s no row, check that the order has the buyer’s Discord and that the notice was on.
Can I send a notice again? No. Each notice goes out once per order, so the buyer doesn’t get repeats.
Did the VIP notice go out for a gift? No. Gifts to another player’s ID aren’t part of the VIP notices.
