Scheduled Messages
Post something once at a set time, or on a repeat.
Setting one up
Pick the channel, write the message or an embed, choose when it first goes out (in your own time zone), and how often it repeats: once, hourly, every 6 or 12 hours, daily, weekly, every 2 weeks or every 30 days.
Role and user mentions ping. @everyone and @here don’t, on purpose.
Good to know
If Nolvyn was offline when a message was due, it sends it once when it’s back and skips any repeats it missed. You won’t get a pile of duplicates.
Free servers can have 2 scheduled messages, Premium 25.
