Discord Rich Presence

Our desktop app allows you to advertise your community right in Discord!

Rich presence is included with all versions of Sonoran CAD, but customization requires the Standard plan or higher, and the Pro plan for complete customization with the icon.
For more information, see our pricing or view how to check your community limits.
What is Discord Rich Presence?
When running our desktop application, Discord can automatically detect and display information about your community.

Customizing Buttons
Discord presence currently allows for two customizable buttons.
Navigate to Admin > Customization > Customization > Discord Rich Presence
For communities on the Standard plan or higher:
- Button #2 may be customized to any Sonoran CAD or Sonoran CMS invitation link.
- Ex: https://sonorancad.com/#/?comid=mycommunityid or https://sonorancms.com/#/?comid=mycommunityid
For communities on the Pro plan:
- Both buttons may be customized to any URL desired.
- The Icon and title can also be customized with a Discord developer application.
Customizing the Icon
Communities on the Pro version may customize the rich presence icon:
1. Create a new Discord Application
On https://discord.com/developers/applications create a new application
Discord Developer - New Application
2. Copy your Client ID
Under OAuth2, copy your Client ID 
Discord Developer - Application Client ID
3. Add an Icon
Next, upload an icon for your new application. Be sure to copy down the name of the icon for later.

4. Configure in Sonoran CAD
Back in the admin customization menu, we can paste the Discord application's Client ID and Icon name.

Once saved, your Discord presence for all community members will reflect your custom icon, title, and buttons.

My presence visible, but not to others?
If your Discord presence is visible to you personally but not to others, ensure the button labels don't include any sort of :emoji: in them.
