# Edit the embed

A panel can have up to **10 embeds** (Discord's cap). Each embed has its own customization.

## Opening the embed editor

In the panel editor's left preview, **click the embed** to open the editor in the right pane.

## Sections in the editor

### Actions

A **Reset** button that reverts this embed to defaults.

### Embed Color

The accent stripe down the left of the embed.

* **Default:** `#d4af37` (Ticket King gold), or your server embed color if you have set one.
* **Input:** a color picker popover. You can type a hex color code, and a circular swatch shows a preview.

### Embed fields (top-level)

### Embed fields (the list)

Below the main fields, you can add named field-value pairs that appear in a grid below the description:

| Field            | Cap                                                         |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| Field **name**   | 256 characters                                              |
| Field **value**  | 1024 characters                                             |
| Field **inline** | toggle (renders side-by-side instead of full-width when on) |

Fields are drag-reorderable.

## Total embed limits

Discord's caps that apply across all embed properties:

* **Total characters across one embed:** 6000 (Discord cap).
* **Total embeds per panel message:** 10 (Discord cap).

The dashboard counts and warns you when you approach these.

## Markdown support in description

Discord-flavored markdown is supported in `description`:

* `**bold**`, `*italic*`, `__underline__`, `~~strikethrough~~`
* `[link text](https://url)` for clickable links
* `>` for blockquotes
* Triple-backtick code blocks
* `# H1`, `## H2`, `### H3` headings

## Inserting an emoji into text

Type `:` in any text field and the dashboard's emoji autocomplete appears. Pick the emoji you want.

## Variables in panel content (above-embed message)

A panel can also have a **message content** field above the embeds (Discord supports a content + up to 10 embeds in a single message). Its cap is **2000 characters**.

This message content is separate from the embed. It is the plain text that appears above the embeds in the panel message.

## Inheriting from server defaults

Some embed fields can inherit from server-wide defaults:

* **Color** uses the [server embed color](/docs/customization-and-branding/server-embed-color.md) if you leave it blank.

You'll generally want to set the color server-wide and let panels inherit, so visual identity stays consistent.

## Saving

Edits are tracked by the panel's overall Unsaved Changes Bar. Hit **Save** to apply.
