Bridged Discord Bot Commonly Asked Questions
Commonly Asked Questions AKA FAQ
How do I setup the Discord Bridge bot?

We don’t use Discord Forums, should we still setup the Discord Bridge Bot?
No two communities are cut from the same cloth so ultimately it is up to you and your community! However we have seen some best practices for certain conversations and discussions that shouldn’t be buried in discord chats, and remain accessible for community members to reference! This also saves admins & mods time by helping them avoid having to constantly repeat answers

How can I tell my forums are bridged correctly?
