Linked Discord account

Linking your Discord account connects your YAWBDB panel account to your Discord identity.

This is required for several user-facing features.

🔗 Why link Discord?

YAWBDB uses your Discord account to connect panel actions with Discord activity.

Linking is useful for:

• Tracking your reports
• Tracking your tickets
• Viewing appeals linked to your Discord ID
• Confirming server membership for votes
• Receiving relevant notifications
• Connecting staff actions to Discord context

🔗 How to link your account

1. Open the YAWBDB panel.
2. Open your profile menu.
3. Go to Profile or Linked Accounts.
4. Choose Connect Discord.
5. Authorize YAWBDB with Discord.
6. Return to the panel.

Once linked, your Discord identity can be used by supported features.

🖼️ Your picture in the panel

Unless you upload your own photo (see Your profile photo), your panel picture is the avatar of your linked Discord account. It shows up everywhere your name does: the account menu, team members, the activity logs, chat messages and conversations, and your friends lists.

• The picture refreshes each time you sign in with Discord. Changed your avatar on Discord? Sign in with Discord once and the panel follows.
• If your Discord account has no custom avatar, the panel shows the default Discord avatar.
• If no Discord account is linked, or if the picture cannot be loaded, the panel shows your initials on a coloured disc.
• You can replace it with a photo of your own: see Your profile photo.

Because the picture is loaded from Discord, its address contains your Discord ID. Discord IDs are not secret (anyone can copy yours from your Discord profile), but they are visible to people who can see your picture in the panel.

🔐 Privacy note

YAWBDB only uses the linked account for platform features that need to know your Discord identity.

Do not share your account with others. If you use multiple Discord accounts, make sure you link the correct one.

🔗 When linking is required

Some features may not work correctly without a linked Discord account.

Examples:

• My Reports
• My Tickets
• User appeal history
• Voting membership checks
• Role-aware notifications

🔧 Troubleshooting

🚨 I linked the wrong Discord account

Disconnect or change the linked account from your profile settings if the panel supports it. If not, contact support.

🚨 I cannot see my reports or tickets

Make sure the Discord account that submitted the report or ticket is the same one linked to your panel account.

🚨 Discord authorization failed

Try again while logged in to the correct Discord account. If the issue continues, check browser extensions, pop-up blockers, or Discord session state.
