Discord and Telegram

The two do different jobs:

• Discord goes to the team's channel: the team events you pick (chapter completed, new chapter, step ready…) are posted to the team's Discord channel as a single message. It is set up once per team.
• Telegram is personal: your own notifications arrive in your Telegram account. Everyone links it for themselves.

Discord: setup

Fansub Settings → the Discord notifications section (Fansub Settings in the Management menu; see Fansub Settings).

1. In Discord, open the settings of the channel that should receive announcements (the gear next to the channel name).
2. Go to Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook, then Copy Webhook URL.
3. In the panel, paste the URL into Webhook URL. It must start with https://discord.com/api/webhooks/ (or https://discordapp.com/api/webhooks/); no other address is accepted.
4. Tick the events to announce and press Save.
5. Try it with Send test message. On success the channel gets "✅ FansubPanel connection test successful!" and the panel says Test message sent to the Discord channel.; otherwise Could not reach Discord — check the URL.

The test uses the saved URL: if you changed it, save first (The test uses the saved URL — save your new URL first.). The section's How do I create a webhook? heading has the same steps.

Discord: which events are sent

Only the events you tick are sent; if you tick none, nothing is posted.

• Series events: Chapter completed, New chapter opened (bulk opening is a single summary), New series added, Looking for someone.
• Team workflow: A step is ready (fires on every step handover — can get busy on an active series), Revision requested.
• Hub: New Hub asset (watermark, font, PSD template or tool).

Messages are written in the team owner's language. To @mention the assignee in the channel, members must link their Discord account under Account Settings → Linked Accounts; otherwise only their name is shown. The person who finished and handed over a step is not mentioned in that handover's message.

Discord: who can do this

The webhook URL, the events and the test button are available to the team owner, Fansub Admin or anyone with Manage Fansub.

Telegram: linking

Account Settings → the Telegram row at the top of the Notification Preferences card.

1. Click Connect Telegram. The panel's bot opens in Telegram in a new tab.
2. Start the bot in Telegram. The link code is valid for 10 minutes.
3. The panel detects the connection by itself (Start the bot in the Telegram app; the connection will be detected automatically.); the row shows Connected and your Telegram username. The bot also sends a confirmation message.
4. Pick which notifications go to Telegram in the table's Telegram column. Telegram switches start off; to turn them all on, use Enable All next to Telegram:.

To unlink, click Disconnect.

Telegram: what arrives

The same notifications as in the panel, for the types whose Telegram switch you turned on: step ready, revisions, mentions, series chat, invitations and join requests, announcements, account and billing. Marketing & News never goes to Telegram. Types and rules: Notifications.

Common questions

• The Telegram row doesn't appear at all. Telegram is only offered when a Telegram bot is set up on the platform; if the row is missing, the feature isn't available right now.
• The bot said "The link code is invalid or has expired". The code (10 minutes) may have expired; click Connect Telegram in the panel again.
• The Discord test fails. The webhook may have been deleted in Discord or the URL copied incompletely; create a new webhook, save its URL and try again.
