Only text (0) and announcement (5) channels accept a direct message — forum
(15) and media (16) require thread creation, so they're dropped from the
picker (they returned 'non-text channel'). Channels are also filtered by the
bot's effective VIEW_CHANNEL + SEND_MESSAGES, computed from role base perms and
channel overwrites (Discord's documented algorithm), with a safe fallback to
type-only filtering when the bot's roles can't be resolved.
- Introduced caching for Discord channel lookups, reducing API calls and improving performance.
- Updated the DiscordSettings component to use a SearchableSelect for better user experience when selecting channels.
- Added new language strings for channel search and no channels found messages in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
- Updated tests to ensure channel list caching is isolated between runs.
Connect a Discord server via OAuth (bot authorization) and schedule/publish
messages to its channels, with mentions and rich embeds.
- Connect: custom Socialite Discord provider (bot scope) maps the authorized
guild to a SocialAccount; throws if no server was authorized.
- Publish: DiscordPublisher posts via the global bot token, validates the chosen
channel belongs to the connected guild (anti cross-guild), optimizes media,
builds allowed_mentions only from explicit mention chips (no accidental pings),
and renders rich embeds.
- Compose: per-post channel picker (live lookup), mention autocomplete and an
embed editor, gated by a required-channel compliance rule; Discord post preview.
- Enum/config/content-type wiring, ConnectionVerifier health check, throttled
lookup endpoints, i18n (en/es/pt-BR), and tests.
Operators must create a Discord application and set DISCORD_CLIENT_ID,
DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET, DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN and DISCORD_CLIENT_REDIRECT.
