Introducing the Community Server Cleanup Report for August 2025 (opens in new tab)
Discord’s August 2025 Community Server Cleanup Report introduces the first wave of updates aimed at giving moderators, administrators, and game developers more control over their servers. The changes improve server management, onboarding, and Forum channels by fixing usability bugs, expanding feature availability, and improving accessibility. Discord says these improvements are part of an ongoing effort to make community management easier. ## Server and Channel Management - Unread mentions in Voice and Stage channels now appear in Suggested Channels for members who have not enabled “Show All Channels.” - The Role list in Permission settings now includes a right-click delete option. - Mod View now works on servers without the Community feature enabled. - Channel description editing has improved Markdown support. - Role changes now update correctly in Settings on Android and iOS. ## Community Onboarding and Server Guide - Disabling the Community feature now also disables the Server Guide if it was previously active. - The Server Guide supports screen readers for better accessibility. - A mobile bug that trapped users in an infinite Server Onboarding exit loop has been fixed. ## Forum Channel Improvements - Forum channels are now available on all server types, without requiring the Community feature. - Forum post editing on iOS has been improved. - Members can no longer bypass required Forum post tags. - Shift, Home, and End key behavior is now consistent when browsing Forums. - Users are no longer incorrectly affected by Slowmode when a Forum is full and their post cannot be created. - Closing Threads works correctly in Gallery View. - Posts from blocked users are hidden in Forums, as they are in regular channels. - Discord also made general cleanup improvements to Forum sorting and tagging. Discord presents these fixes as the beginning of a longer series of community-focused updates. Moderators and game developers can expect further improvements targeting server administration and member experiences.
