,embed posts a message in drain’s own look: plain words, or a card from the same script a welcome takes. rules, announcements and info cards need no other bot.
every command needs manage server.
posting one
leave the channel out and it posts where you typed it, then deletes your command, so the channel holds only the card. the script reads exactly like a welcome’s:{title}, {description}, {field}, {image}, {button}, {rule} and the rest, with {server}, {user} and every other variable filled in. the full list is on the greetings page.
there is a builder at drain.baby/embeds: pick post, fill it in, watch the preview and copy the command.
changing one
what it will not do
- it never pings anybody. a mention in the script shows as a mention but notifies nobody, so a card can’t be turned into a mass ping.
- it won’t post where you can’t. if you can’t send messages in a channel, drain won’t send there for you.
- it only edits its own plain cards. a giveaway, a self-role panel or a ticket button has things people click; rewriting it as a card would break them, so those are changed with their own commands.
