Introducing Announcements and Widgets: Level Up Your Communication

We are thrilled to announce the rollout of two highly requested features: Announcements and Widgets. These tools are designed to give Bot Developers and Server Owners more control over their presence on DiscordForge and beyond.

📢 Announcements: Direct Updates on Your Profile

Keeping your users in the loop just got easier. With the new Announcements feature, you can now pin important updates directly to the top of your Bot or Server profile page.

Why use Announcements?

High Visibility: Announcements appear prominently above your description, ensuring they are the first thing visitors see.
Rich Text Support: Use Markdown to format your messages with bold text, lists, code blocks, and links.
Instant Updates: Whether it's a new feature release, a maintenance window, or a special event, you can publish updates instantly.

This feature is available now for all localized profiles.

🧩Widgets: Show Off Your Stats

You worked hard to grow your community—now it's time to show it off! Our new Widgets allow you to embed real-time status cards on your own website, documentation, or GitHub profile.

Widget/Embed Features:

Live Data: Displays your up-to-date server count, vote count, and reviews count.
Multiple Formats:
- HTML: Great for personal websites and portfolios.
- Markdown: Perfect for GitHub README.md files.
- JSON: Raw data access for developers who want to build custom integrations.
Sleek Design: Designed to match the modern DiscordForge aesthetic with dark mode support by default.

How to Get Started

Go to your Dashboard and select your Bot or Server.
For Announcements, look for the "Post Announcement" button on your profile view.
For Widgets, click the Actions menu on your profile and select Widget to grab your code snippets.

We can't wait to see how you use these new tools to engage with your audience. As always, if you have feedback, join our support server and let us know!
