Events with sign-up
Plan game nights and meetups: members join with a button, get a DM reminder, and the event also appears as a Discord event.
With events you plan game nights, tournaments or meetups with sign-up. yurna posts a sign-up message with buttons and a participant list, also creates a Discord event (your server's “Events” tab) and reminds everyone who signed up via DM before it starts.
You'll find the page under Dashboard → Engagement → Events (/dashboard/<server>/events). Alternatively, create events right in Discord with /event create.
How to set it up#
- Open Engagement → Events and click Create event.
- Enter Title, Date, Time, Duration and Time zone.
- Choose the Sign-up channel – the sign-up message with buttons is posted here.
- If you like, set a Voice channel, Location, Max participants, DM reminder, Role for attendees and Description.
- Click Create and post. The sign-up appears in the channel shortly.
How sign-up works#
Below the sign-up message there are the buttons Going, Maybe and Can’t go, plus 👥 for the full participant list. (The button labels follow your server's language.) The message keeps showing who is going and who might come.
- Once Max participants is reached, yurna accepts no further sign-ups (“Sorry, all spots are taken”).
- Everyone who is going or said “Maybe” gets a DM reminder with a link to the sign-up before the start.
- With a Role for attendees, everyone who is going gets the role. It's removed again on “Maybe” or “Can’t go”, and for everyone after the event (or when it's cancelled).
- After the end, the event is marked as over and the buttons are disabled.
Settings#
- Duration: 30 minutes to 6 hours. After that the event counts as over.
- Voice channel (optional): the Discord event is linked directly to this voice channel. Without one, yurna uses the Location or the link to the sign-up.
- Max participants: empty = unlimited.
- DM reminder: none, 15, 30, 60 or 120 minutes, or 24 hours before.
- Under Upcoming events you can Cancel an event or jump to the sign-up with Go to sign-up. Past events lists the finished ones.
Commands#
| Command | What it does | Who can use it |
|---|---|---|
/event create | Opens a form for a new event in the current channel | Members with "Manage Events" or "Manage Server" |
/event list | Shows upcoming events with a link to the sign-up | Everyone |
/event cancel <event> | Cancels an event – everyone who signed up gets a DM | Members with "Manage Events" or "Manage Server" |
In the /event create form you enter the time as DD.MM.YYYY HH:MM (for example 24.10.2026 20:00), plus an optional location, max participants and description. Events created by command use the Europe/Berlin time zone and remind 30 minutes before. Voice channel, role, duration and a different time zone are set in the dashboard.
Premium#
Premium
Events are free. The only limit is how many events can be scheduled at once: New Moon 5, Half Moon 25, Full Moon 100. Past and cancelled events don't count.
Common problems#
- “I don’t understand that date or it is in the past”. Use the format
DD.MM.YYYY HH:MM. The time must not be in the past. - “Your plan doesn’t allow more scheduled events at once”. Cancel a scheduled event or switch plans.
- No Discord event appears. yurna needs the Manage Events permission. The sign-up message still works.
- The role isn't assigned. yurna needs Manage Roles, and yurna's role must be above the event role.
- Someone doesn't get a reminder. The member doesn't accept DMs from server members.
