Branding & Custom Embeds

Give every StarBot embed your guild's color, and compose one-off custom announcement embeds from a modal.

TierPro
You'll needPro subscription for custom embed color.

Two small commands make StarBot look like your bot. /config-embed-color coloradminPro sets a persistent color that the bot then uses on its embeds across your server, and /post-embed [channel]admin lets an admin compose a one-off custom announcement embed through a modal.

What's Pro here — and what isn't

The persistent custom embed color (/config-embed-color) is a Pro feature: it re-tints the embeds StarBot posts server-wide. Posting a one-off custom embed with /post-embed is Free — every server can use it, and you can pick any color per post right in the modal.

Set your server's embed color (Pro)

/config-embed-color color:#3498DB

Pass a hex code like #3498DB. The bot validates the format (#RRGGBB, e.g. #FF0000), saves it as your guild's embed color, and replies with a preview embed already wearing the new color. From then on, the bot's embeds in your server use that color instead of the default.

  1. 1
    Pick your color. Grab your org's hex code — from your logo, your website, or any color picker.
  2. 2
    Run the command. /config-embed-color color:#RRGGBB. If your server doesn't have Pro, the bot replies with an upgrade prompt instead.
  3. 3
    Check the preview. The confirmation reply is itself an embed in your new color — if it looks right there, it looks right everywhere.

Post a custom embed (Free)

/post-embed channel:#announcements

/post-embed opens a Create Custom Embed modal (Administrator only). The channel option is optional — leave it off to post in the current channel. The modal has three fields:

  • Embed Title — up to 256 characters. Required.
  • Embed Content — the body, up to 4000 characters. Required.
  • Color (Hex Code) — optional, e.g. #0099ff. This colors this one embed only; it does not touch your saved Pro color.

Submit the modal and the embed posts to the target channel:

/post-embed is handy for rules addenda, event hype posts, or any announcement you want to stand out from plain messages — no webhook or third-party embed tool needed.
