A Discord hidden server is a private server that's not visible to the public or other Discord users, making it a great way to share sensitive information or collaborate with a small group of people.

To create a hidden server, you need to be invited by someone who already has access to it, as hidden servers can only be accessed through an invite link.

Hidden servers are perfect for small groups or teams that need a private space to communicate without the noise of a public server.

You can only invite people to a hidden server if you have the invite link, which can be shared with others, but only if they have the correct invite link.

Hiding Members

You can make members invisible with Role Permissions by creating a new role and deactivating the "View Channels" permission. This way, they won't show up in channel listings.

To do this, access server settings by clicking the menu arrow beside the server name and choose Server Settings. Create a new role, give it a name like "Invisible Moderator", and scroll down to the Permissions area.

Deactivate the "View Channels" permission to keep them invisible. Then, right-click the member you want to hide and choose Roles to assign them the new position. Users with this role will be invisible in any channel they don't have access to.

Concealing members in voice channels is another option. Create a Private Voice Channel by right-clicking the Voice Channels section and making it private, then invite only the members or roles you want to let in.

The Blade Server

The Blade Server is a great example of how to create a community on Discord. The server was created by Leo K, who also reached out to other members to join.

The server's logo was a priority, as it needed to be resized and cleaned up. JoeyFogey was asked to redo the venetian blind background to make it more proportionate, and smooth out the hand/blade silhouette to get rid of the pixelation.

Discord recommends a 512*512 pixel size for icons, but the aspect ratio might not be a major concern. The ideal aspect ratio would be 1:1, but it's not a requirement.

The venetian blind background might look better as a plain grey or white, but that's just a suggestion. The server's link is permanent and can be used as much as you like.

To join the server, you need to use Discord for more than 5 minutes and claim your account. It's also a good idea to customize your profile in that time.

Customization

Customization is a key feature of Discord hidden servers. They can be customized to fit your server's unique needs and style.

You can change the server's name, icon, and description to make it stand out. This is especially useful for servers that are part of a larger community or brand.

The server's permissions can also be customized to control what members can do and see. This includes setting up roles, channels, and invite links.

Customizing the server's layout is also possible, allowing you to organize channels and categories in a way that makes sense for your community.
