Discord commands for CTAs
Post guild events from Discord with `/cta` and `/flash-mass`.
Channel posts use Discord commands. The web provides the share link and Ping DMs.
Who can run these commands
Officers configure Discord roles on Integrations (step 2 — Bot command permissions). Your AlbionZVZ website officer role does not grant /cta by itself; you need a selected Discord role (for example @Council) or Manage Server / Manage Events on Discord when no officer roles are configured.
If /cta does not appear after saving step 2, ask a Discord server admin to allow your role under Server Settings → Integrations → AlbionZVZ → Manage.
Post a CTA
- In a channel where the bot can post, run
/cta. - Optionally turn on
show_signupsto include a live signup roster in the ping (updates automatically as players sign up or claim roles). - Select the event from the list.
- The bot posts a @everyone message with event details, signup link, and (when enabled) the roster.
Roster behavior by event format
| Format | Roster in ping | Role picks on the post |
|---|---|---|
| Caller assign (ZvZ) | Party slots (assigned + empty) | No — use Auto Sign Up, Tentative, or the website |
| Self-assign | Party slots | Yes — Pick a role… dropdowns (same as /content-ping) plus CTA buttons |
| Open Party | Party slots | Yes — build dropdown + Join / Open |
Large multi-party comps may show a Note on the Discord post when parties or role picks exceed Discord size limits — the full roster is always on the website (Open button).
If the event description is longer than 1024 characters, the bot will not post the ping and will tell you to shorten it on the website first (Discord embed limit).
CTA reminders stay compact (no roster). Only one live roster message per event is tracked — a new CTA or content ping with roster replaces the previous live post for that event.
Flash mass from Discord
- Run
/flash-mass. - Fill title, description, mass_location, caller, and signup_visibility (guild only, public, or hidden link).
- Confirm — players receive the signup URL.
