Discord Server Stats Bot: A Live Banner of Members, Online and Goals

Stats as a picture, not a pile of channels

A common way to show member counts is a set of locked voice channels renamed by a bot, such as "Members: 1,204". It works, but it fills the channel list and Discord limits how fast channels can be renamed. Noxyr takes another route: one image, posted once in one channel, edited in place. The channel never fills up and the numbers sit together on a card you can style.

What the banner shows

• Members: the member count, with humans and bots underneath.
• Online now: how many members are online.
• Verified: members with the verify role, or any role you choose.
• Member goal: a progress bar to a goal you set, or to the next round number.
• Server: text and voice channels, categories, roles, boosts and how old the server is.

You can turn off any part. A small community may want only members and a goal, while a bigger one may show everything.

Set it up

1. Pick a channel. A read-only channel works best. /quickcreate statsbanner makes a read-only #server-stats channel and posts the banner in it.
2. Choose a look. There are 10 templates. Use the Server Stats page on the dashboard or /quicksetup statsbanner, which sets channel, look, goal and title from one menu with a preview.
3. Check the preview. /statsbanner preview shows your server in a template, and only you see it.
4. Save to post it. After that the bot redraws it every 30 minutes.

For later changes there is /statsbanner setup for channel, template, goal, role and title, /statsbanner data to choose which numbers show, /statsbanner refresh to redraw right away and /statsbanner off to stop it and delete the message.

Make it look like your server

The Design part of the Server Stats page, on the dashboard only, lays your own look over any template. Anything left on "Same as template" keeps the template as it is.

Why a member goal helps

A goal turns a static number into something members can push toward. "We are at 940 of 1,000" in a visible bar gives you a reason to post invites and a simple milestone to celebrate. If you do not set a goal, the bar aims at the next round number. Pair it with referral and invite tracking if you want to see where growth comes from: see the invite tracker bot.

Limits and permissions

• The bot needs Send Messages, Attach Files and Embed Links in the channel.
• On a custom bot the picture has no Noxyr branding.
• Very large servers, over 25,000 members, show the totals only, without the humans and bots split or the role count.

Where to put the banner

Pick a spot visitors cross early: right under the rules channel, or at the top of the channel list. People who are deciding whether to stay glance at member counts and activity, and a clean card answers that without you saying a word. Make the channel read-only so the card is the only thing in it, which is what /quickcreate statsbanner sets up for you.

If you run a shop or a support desk, stats also work as quiet proof that the community is real. Put the banner near your store or your ticket panel, so buyers see an active server before they pay.

Turn off any number you would rather not show. The bot only draws the parts you leave on.

Banner or channel counters?

Use whichever fits your server, or both. Channel counters are visible from anywhere in the channel list without opening anything. A banner carries more numbers, looks designed and is a single message you can place next to your rules. If you only want to show one number, a counter is simpler. If you want a goal bar and a handful of figures with your own colours, the banner is the better fit.
