In this tutorial, we will learn how to change notifications on a Discord server. Discord is a popular communication platform used by gamers, communities, and businesses to connect and interact with each other. By customizing your notification settings, you can control how and when you receive alerts for new messages, mentions, and other activities on your Discord server.
Step 1: Accessing Server Settings
To change the notification settings of a Discord server, you need to have administrative privileges or be the server owner. Follow these steps:
- Open Discord and log in to your account.
- Select the desired server from the left sidebar.
- Right-click on the server’s name or icon to open a context menu.
- Click on “Server Settings” from the menu options.
Step 2: Navigating to Notification Settings
Once you are in the server settings, you need to navigate to the notification settings section. Here’s how:
- In the left sidebar of the server settings window, click on “Notifications”.
Step 3: Customizing Notification Preferences
Now that you are in the notification settings section, you can customize your preferences according to your needs. Here are some options available:
All Messages
This option allows you to receive notifications for all messages sent in the server. It is useful if you want real-time updates on all conversations happening within the community.
@mentions Only
If you choose this option, you will only receive notifications when someone mentions your username or role in a message. This is helpful if you want to filter out unnecessary notifications and focus on important interactions.
Nothing
Selecting this option will disable all notifications for the server. It is ideal if you want to temporarily mute a server or minimize distractions.
Step 4: Additional Notification Settings
Besides the notification preferences mentioned above, Discord also provides additional settings to further customize your notification experience. These options include:
Mobile Push Notifications
If you have the Discord mobile app installed, you can enable or disable push notifications for the server on your mobile device. This allows you to stay connected even when you are away from your computer.
Notification Sound
You can choose a specific sound for notifications on this server. Discord provides a range of notification sounds to suit your personal preferences.
In-app Notification Badge
This option enables or disables the red badge icon that appears on the Discord app’s icon when there are new messages or mentions in the server.
Step 5: Saving Changes
Once you have customized your notification settings, remember to save your changes by clicking on the “Save Changes” button at the bottom of the screen.
Congratulations! You have successfully changed the notification settings for a Discord server. By adjusting these settings according to your preferences, you can ensure that you receive important alerts while minimizing distractions and interruptions during your Discord experience.
