A sticky message moves back to the bottom of its channel as members chat. Each channel can have one.
Before you begin
- You need Manage Server.
- Use a text or announcement channel.
- In that channel, Discortics needs View Channel, Send Messages, Embed Links, and Read Message History.
Create a sticky message
Create from the Dashboard
- Open Dashboard → Sticky.
- Select Add sticky channel, then choose a channel.
- Keep Enable sticky message on.
- Set the Repost delay.
- Design the message, then save.

Repost delay
The delay starts at the first new member message. When it ends, the sticky moves to the bottom. Bot messages don't trigger a repost.
- Default: 5 seconds
- Range: 5 seconds to 1 hour
Turn off or remove a sticky
- Turn off deletes the posted message and keeps your design.
- Remove deletes the posted message and its saved design.
Sticky leaderboards
A sticky leaderboard posts the top ten and updates the same message every 24 hours.
Publish from the Dashboard
- Open Dashboard → Sticky and select Leaderboards.
- Choose a Leaderboard and period.
- Choose a Channel.
- Select Publish leaderboard.

Your server can have one message for each leaderboard and period. Different leaderboards can share a channel.
Limits
| Resource | Public | Prime | Custom |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sticky channels | 5 | 15 | 50 |
| Sticky leaderboards | — | Yes | Yes |
Sticky leaderboards don't count toward your sticky channels or saved embeds.
If your plan's limit drops, Discortics keeps your oldest sticky channels up to the new limit and removes the rest. Sticky leaderboards are removed when Prime or Custom ends.

Troubleshooting
The sticky isn't reposting. Check that it's enabled and that a member, not a bot, sent the latest message. Then check the permissions above.
I can't add another channel. You've reached your plan's limit. Remove a sticky channel or upgrade.
A leaderboard shows a warning. Follow the warning on Dashboard → Sticky → Leaderboards. If its message or channel was deleted, remove the leaderboard and create it again.
