Your members suggest and vote without leaving Discord.

A member adds a request, turns a chat message into one, the list takes votes, and the changelog posts back to the server.

Changelog posts: When you publish a changelog, Featurevote can post it to a channel you pick.
Your board’s rules: A member’s request follows the same rules as a post on the board. With Require approval on, it waits for you.

— How it works

Connect your community and set vote weights.

Connect your serverOne click from your board settings. You approve it on Discord, a small bot with no permissions joins, and your roles come over.
Weight the rolesEvery role starts at ×1. Give the ones that matter more — ×2, ×3, ×5. A member with several roles counts at the highest.
Share the boardPost the link in your server, or let members suggest and vote right in the chat with /featurevote. The list ranks itself.

— What you get

The pieces, plainly.

The member gate: One switch makes voting, suggesting, and commenting members-only. Membership is checked against your server — no honor system, no list to maintain.
Role-weighted votes: Each role gets a weight you choose. The board shows the weighted total, with the plain voter count next to it whenever the two differ. Only roles weighted above ×1 appear on the board — your server’s role structure stays private.
Works with your membership platform: If Patreon, Ko-fi, or a membership bot already assigns supporter roles in your server, weighting those roles weights those memberships — through one connection.
Checked at login: A member’s roles are read when they log in. On a members-only board a login lasts 30 days, so changes reach a gated board within a month. Votes already cast keep the weight they were cast with.
Non-members: you decide: Let visitors view the board without taking part, or lock it entirely — then the board itself is a perk of your server.
Members without a role: you decide: They can take part, counting ×1 — or be treated like non-members, so the board belongs to role holders. One dropdown.

— Why roles

Your roles already know who your supporters are.

Many communities already mirror supporter status into Discord roles — from Patreon, Ko-fi, YouTube memberships, or a community bot — so the role list is the one place every kind of membership shows up. Weighting votes by role puts that to work: whoever runs your memberships, their supporters count for more on your board, without a separate integration for each platform.

— Boards and channel polls

A poll asks once. A board keeps score.

Discord’s own polls are right there in your channel, and for a quick question they are the obvious tool. Where the two differ:

Who counts, and how much: A channel poll counts every click the same. The board can count members only, weighted by role.
Where the options come from: A poll offers the options you wrote. On the board, members post their own requests too, on the board or from Discord.
How long it lasts: A poll is a moment in the channel, and scrolls away with it. The board is a standing list that keeps ranking itself.
What it tells you later: A closed poll answers one question once. The board keeps the whole backlog ranked and turns shipped items into a changelog.

— Questions, answered short

The fine print, in plain words.

Do my members need to create an account?: No. A member clicks "Log in with Discord" and approves it once on Discord. No password, no email form, no separate account.
What does the bot do in my server?: It joins with zero permissions and reads the role list. Featurevote never reads your channels. It posts in Discord only when someone uses one of its commands or presses a Vote button, and when you publish a changelog to a channel you picked. It reads a message only when someone runs Add to FeatureVote on it. Adding the bot requires the Manage Server permission on your Discord account.
Who can use the commands in Discord?: Everyone in your server. People with Manage Server count as your team, and their requests go straight on the board. A member’s request follows the board’s rules, so it waits for approval if you turned that on. To narrow the commands to some roles or channels, use Server Settings, Integrations, Featurevote in Discord.
Can Featurevote post our changelog in Discord?: Yes. Pick a channel on the Discord card in your settings. When you publish a changelog, Featurevote posts it there once, as a short card with a link to the full changelog.
What happens when someone changes roles, or leaves the server?: Membership and roles are checked when a member logs in on the board. On a members-only board a login lasts 30 days, so a change on Discord reaches a gated board within 30 days. With the gate off, a linked member keeps their last-read weight until their next login. Votes already cast always keep the weight they were cast with.
Can members without any role take part?: Your call. By default they can vote, counting ×1. Set them to "Same as non-members" and only members holding a role can take part.
Can people outside the server see the board?: Also a setting. Non-members can view without taking part, or the whole board can be members-only — visitors then see your server name and a login button instead of the list.
Can I use Discord and Patreon on the same board?: Yes. Connect both. With both gates on, the board shows both logins and someone who passes either one can take part. With only one gate on, only that one lets people in and the other provider just adds weight. A voter linked to both counts at the higher weight. If Patreon (or Ko-fi, or a membership bot) already assigns supporter roles in your server, connecting Discord alone and weighting those roles also works.
What does it cost?: Nothing separate — it is part of every Featurevote plan, including the free one. Members can suggest and vote as much as they like, and the free plan lets you manage 15 active items at a time. Paid plans remove that limit.

Every setting and edge case, with screenshots, is in the Discord docs.
