Starboard
Automatically post messages with enough reactions in a highlight channel.
In the panel under: Community, Starboard
When a message gets enough reactions with a certain emoji, the bot posts it in a showcase channel. This way the community itself decides what gets highlighted.
Setup
Create a starboard channel
A channel only the bot can write in. Everyone can read it.
Enable the module and select the channel
Set the emoji and threshold
Save
