Send notifications to Discord

Each time you hit Publish, Discord receives a beautifully formatted message:

New post published: {title_url}
— {site_name}

If your post’s Category or Tag has a Role ID assigned, Discord will automatically mention that role:

<@&123456789012345678> New post: {title_url}

Webhook Setup

1. Create a webhook in Discord:
Server → Channel → Edit Channel → Integrations → Webhook

2. Paste the webhook URL here:

Settings → Init Pulse For Discord → Webhook URL

Done. No token, no bot authentication.

Assign Role ID to Category/Tag

On the Category or Tag edit page, you’ll see fields like:

Discord Role ID
Discord Role ID (all-posts role)

→ When a post under this Category/Tag is published, Discord will ping that role.

Custom Message Template

You can fully customize the Discord message using placeholders:

{title_url}
— {excerpt}
({site_name})
