Introducing: Give Cordary Its Own Name and Photo in Each Server

Cordary can now go by a name and photo you pick for each server, from our gallery or your server's own icon, so its posts match your community or stay low-key.

Choosing a photo and a name for Cordary in one server, with a preview of how its posts will look

Cordary posts the welcome, rules and info messages you approve. Now it can post them under a name and photo that fit your server.

What's new

  • A name for each server. Call Cordary "Stargazer" in your astronomy club, "Front Desk" in your support server, or keep it as Cordary. Each server gets its own.
  • A photo to match. Pick one of six images from Cordary's gallery (Ember, Tide, Lattice, Bloom, Ridge and Orbit), use your server's own icon, or keep Cordary's.
  • See it before you save. A preview shows exactly how Cordary's posts will look in that server.
  • One click back. Reset to Cordary whenever you like.

Where to find it

Open a chat for your server, then the Server tab beside it, then Settings. Under How Cordary appears, choose Edit, pick a photo, type a name and press Save.

It takes effect in Discord straight away. It isn't part of a plan, because it only changes how Cordary looks, not your server.

Good to know

  • It covers everything Cordary has posted there, older posts too, and the member list. That's how Discord's per-server profiles work.
  • Discord still shows the APP badge next to the name, and Cordary's profile still says it's Cordary. Members can always tell it's an app.
  • Photos come from the gallery or your server's icon. You can't upload your own. Your server's icon is copied when you save, so if you change the icon later, save again to update Cordary's photo.
  • Keep it honest. Don't use a name or photo to pass Cordary off as a person, another bot, Discord, or a brand you don't represent. Our Terms cover this.

Why we built it

Some communities want every post to feel like part of the server, with its own voice and look. Others would rather the bot stayed in the background. Now Cordary can do either.
