Medusa/modules/Starboard

Starboard

Reposts messages to a highlights channel once they get enough star reactions.

Members react to good messages with the star emoji. When a message reaches the Required Star Threshold, Medusa reposts it in the Starboard Feed Channel with the author, the content and a link back.

How It Works

  • The starboard post shows the current star count and updates as stars are added or removed.
  • If the count drops below the threshold, the starboard post is deleted.
  • With Prevent Authors Starring Own Messages on, Medusa removes an author's star from their own message.
