DiscordBanner adds a dynamic banner from Discord's API that links to a Discord server. It also displays the number of users online.

It can also be used with a template.

Installation

Configuration

Your server's ID is stored in MediaWiki:Custom-DiscordBanner-id. All other configuration options are stored in the window.DiscordBannerSettings object.

Variable Description Default value Allowed values Required

window.DiscordBannerSettings = {
    bannerStyle: '2',
    inviteLink: 'Vgfu9qb', // Fandom Developers Wiki, EXAMPLE CONFIGURATION
    prependToRail: false
};

Using configuration options with Fandom Developers Wiki scripts

The instructions on this page describe how to use configuration options with a script. Here on the Fandom Developers Wiki, many scripts provide optional configuration settings as a mean to alter or enhance the default behavior of the script. When installing configuration options in your JavaScript file, please note that they need to go above the import statement in order to work — unless the directions say otherwise. In case MediaWiki:ImportJS is used to load the scripts, it will be executed last.

Configuration options load too late, don't work
// 1. AjaxRC import statement
importArticles({
    type: 'script',
    articles: [
        'u:dev:MediaWiki:AjaxRC.js'
    ]
});

// 2. AjaxRC configuration option
window.ajaxRefresh = 30000;
Proper placement of configuration options
// 1. AjaxRC configuration option
window.ajaxRefresh = 30000;

// 2. AjaxRC import statement
importArticles({
    type: 'script',
    articles: [
        'u:dev:MediaWiki:AjaxRC.js'
    ]
});

Option Type What it changes Default
id String Your server's ID. For more information on how to get your server's ID, please see here. This parameter is required. N/A
invite String The second half of your server's invite link. (discord.gg/Vgfu9qb) This parameter is required. The invite must be permanent. N/A
