Starboard
Highlight your best messages
Dashboard → Modules → Starboard
How it works
- Someone posts in the listen channel
Aeon can auto-react with ⭐ so the post is ready to rate. Only human stars count.
- Stars hit the threshold
When enough members react, the message qualifies, bot stars never pad the count.
- Winner lands on the starboard
Aeon republishes a styled card (embed or plain text) into your highlight channel.

Set it up
- Step 1Open Starboard and enable it
Go to Modules → Starboard and turn the module on. Status stays Needs setup until both channels are chosen.
- Step 2Pick listen + starboard channels
Listen channel is where people post and react. Starboard channel is where winners are reposted. Use two different channels.
- Step 3Set the threshold
Default is 3 human ⭐ (range 1–50). Leave Auto-react on if you want Aeon to place the first star for convenience.
- Step 4Tune the post layout, then Save
Choose embed or plain text, color (
#fbbf24by default), and which blocks to show (author, message, source, star count, image). Save when it looks right.
Key options

Common mistake
Using the same channel for listen and starboard creates loops and noisy highlights.
