Channel Sidebar & Menus

Channel Sidebar & Menus screenshot

The channel sidebar holds everything you need while in a channel. Open it with the person icon on mobile; it's always visible on larger screens. On mobile, close it with the ✕ at the sidebar's top-right corner, by tapping anywhere outside it, or by pressing Escape — you can also swipe it away.

Two shortcuts sit right in the channel header so they're always one tap away: Search (magnifying glass) and Rolls (dice).

Available items

The sidebar groups items by who uses them:

Table — available to everyone:

  • Member List — everyone in the channel, with role badges, AFK states, and character info; the GM is always at the top and players are listed alphabetically by character name
  • Notifications — configure what you're notified about for this channel
  • Safety Tools — view the channel's Lines & Veils, or press the X-Card
  • Channel Media — browse every image shared in this channel and view one fullscreen
  • Rolls — the channel's dice roll history
  • Search — find messages in the channel history
  • Help — channel-specific help

GM Tools — GM only:

  • NPCs — manage the channel's NPC roster
  • Active Player — name whose turn it is (or set a single player from their ⋯ menu in the member list)
  • Settings — configure the channel itself

Link items

Depending on what the GM has configured, the sidebar also shows:

  • Map — a link to the campaign map
  • Resources — a link to shared resources (folder, PDF, etc.)
  • GM Resources — GM-only resources link
  • Safety Tools Doc — a link to the group's safety document
