Advance Options
The Advanced Settings section allows you to customize how events and announcements are managed and displayed in Discord. Below, each setting is described in detail to help you configure your events to suit your community’s needs.

Posts every announcement as a new message.
This setting forces all announcements to appear as distinct new messages, even if similar announcements already exist.
Announce Event on Creation
Automatically announces an event when it is created.
Enabling this option posts an announcement to your server as soon as an event is added to the schedule.
Expand Status Buttons

This feature increases the size of status buttons like "Going" or "Interested," making them more noticeable to users.
Auto Generate Discord Image
Automatically creates an image for the Discord announcement.
When enabled, this setting generates a default image for events, improving the visual appeal of announcements.
Expand Guests in Description

Visibility and Cleanup
Hide Announcement Buttons

Delete Announcement on End
Automatically deletes the announcement once the event ends.
This option keeps your channels clean by removing event announcements after the event concludes.

Stops an additional announcement from being made at the start of the event.
Useful if you don’t want reminders cluttering up your channel when an event begins.
Announce Next Instance on End
Automatically announces the next instance of a recurring event when the current one ends.
Ideal for recurring events, ensuring that users are informed about future sessions.
Use Discord Event in Announcement

Guest Management
Separate TimeoutUI

This option creates a dedicated interface for managing timeouts for various aspects of the event.

Enables tags for users, such as their roles, to be visible alongside their names in the guest list.
Prevent Guests in Thread

Do Not Sync Discord Events

Prevents the events from being mirrored in Discord’s event system, maintaining separation between Atomcal and Discord events.
Interested Guests Select Role

Guests who mark themselves as "Interested" in an event are prompted to select a role, allowing them more engagement with the event.
Discord Read Only
Makes the event announcement channel read-only.
Ensures that only admins can post in the event announcement channel, preventing users from adding comments or reactions.
Twitch Settings
Do Not Bump Event Duration

This option keeps the event duration fixed, regardless of user engagement.
Sync Recurring Events with Twitch
Automatically syncs recurring events with Twitch.

Similar to the above, but applies to one-time events, helping to maintain consistency across platforms.
These settings allow for robust customization of event scheduling and announcements in your Discord community. Adjust each setting to fit the needs and preferences of your members and moderators. For more detailed information or troubleshooting, consult Atomcal’s support resources.
