Scheduled Messages

Post a message or embed at a specific time, once or on a recurring schedule.

When to use

Weekly Sunday "events this week" post
Daily 9 AM "good morning" embed
One-off announcement scheduled for later
Monthly newsletter

Where it lives

Dashboard: Community → Scheduled Messages.

Schedule types

Once — fires at a specific datetime.
Daily — fires at the same time every day.
Weekly — fires on specific weekday(s) at a specific time.
Monthly — fires on a specific day of the month at a specific time.

Times are evaluated in the guild's configured timezone (set in Guild Settings).

Per-message config

Channel — where it posts.
Content — text body. Supports markdown.
Embed — optional rich embed (title, description, color, fields, image, footer).
Frequency — once / daily / weekly / monthly.
Time — when (per the schedule type).

Permissions

community.view — see scheduled messages
community.edit — add / edit / delete

Behaviour

Messages fire within ~30 seconds of their scheduled time.
If a send fails (e.g. permission revoked) Phantom retries a few times; after 5 consecutive failures the message auto-disables.
One-off messages auto-archive after firing (kept in the list with status "sent" for history).
Recurring messages show the last-sent time and next scheduled run.

Tips

Test in a private channel first before scheduling to your announcements channel.
Use embeds for important messages — they're more visually distinct than plain text.
Disable rather than delete recurring messages you're temporarily pausing. Easier to re-enable.

Limits

No hard per-guild cap, but very high counts (1000+) may slow the dashboard list view.
