Curtis-D / VIPs

Adds an extra section to the friends list where you can add your most important contacts on Discord (Bots included). Add users by right clicking their name, opening their profile and then clicking on the star. Also displays VIPs at the top of your Direct Message (can be turned off in settings and group DMs can also be disabled in settings).

Hi sapioit,

I found a workaround for now until the developer fixes the plugin.

Step 1: Enable Developer Mode

Navigate to: User Settings > Appearance > Advanced > Developer Mode > ON Vips-fix1

Step 2: Copy User ID

Close your User Settings, now right-click a user you want to add to your VIP list. In the context menu, click "Copy ID". Vips-fix2

Step 3: Open the config file

Press and hold the Windows Key + R keys on your keyboard. In the text area type %APPDATA%\BetterDiscord\plugins and hit the [RETURN] key. A Windows Explorer window will appear, look for "VIPs.config.json". Edit the file with you favorite text editor. (In this tutorial I am using Notepad++)

Step 4: Editing the config file

Under "ids": [ you will find numbers, these are your current VIPs'. Vips-fix3

To add a VIP add the User ID (from step 2) in the following format: "User ID HERE", "Another User ID HERE", "Last User ID HERE"

Note: When you get to your last ID DO NOT ADD A COMMA thus causing the plugin to fail Save your config file. (Ctrl + S on Notepad++)

Step 5: Refresh the plugin

There are 3 ways of achieving this.

Way 1: Refresh Discord by pressing Ctrl + R Way 2: Close and Reopen Discord Way 3: Disable and then re-enable the VIPs plugin

Hope this helps! Good Luck!!!

Thank you! Much appreciated!

By the way, if you have the Search Everything (by Voidtools) app/software, finding the file is much easier.

True, but when I respond to things I like to make it a bone stock as I can.

Glad I could help, have a great day!

I understand. I was just giving a random tip. Thank you! Have a great day!
