Skip the blank server
Setting up categories, permissions and role hierarchy by hand takes an evening. A template takes a command.

Community server templates
A community server has to work for someone who arrives knowing nobody. The layouts here spend their first category on that: rules, an introduction channel and one obvious place to talk, with the rest of the server behind a role that costs nothing to get but marks the difference between a visitor and a member.
They also assume the server will need moderating. Most carry a staff category that is invisible to everyone else, and a channel structure that gives moderators somewhere to move a conversation to instead of ending it.
What these layouts carry
- An entry category: rules, announcements and introductions, readable before any role is granted
- Topic channels split finely enough that each one has its own regulars
- A private staff category with logs, reports and a moderator discussion channel
Why start from a template
A Discord server template is a complete layout someone has already built and published: channels, categories, roles and permissions. Loading one takes a single command and saves an evening of setup.
Several sites offer these and they are not the same product. Galleries, generators and AI builders compared.
Copy a proven layout
Templates with thousands of loads have run in real communities rather than been sketched for a gallery. Read the permissions before you announce anything: a template carries whatever its author set.
Built for a purpose
Browse by category: gaming, school, support, roleplay, development, clan. Each layout assumes a different kind of server.
Publish your own
If your structure works, share it. Make a template in your server settings, submit the link here, and other admins can load it with the upvotes staying on your entry.
Load onto an existing server
You do not need an empty server. Loading replaces the current structure, so back up first if you have something worth keeping.
No bots required
A template only defines channels and roles, so the layout arrives working with no bot installed. The ones a description mentions are yours to invite afterwards.
Loading a template
Templates carry structure only, so nothing personal from the original server comes with them. Back up first: loading replaces the channels and roles you have now.
- 01Find a template here on the site or with /template list in Discord.
- 02Run /backup create on your server first, so the change can be undone.
- 03Run /template load with the code. The layout is applied to your server.

Template questions
Our Discord server is the fastest way to get an answer from a human.
Join our DiscordDo these work for a small server?
A twenty person server in a thirty channel layout feels empty. Load one, then delete the channels you have no use for yet. Removing is faster than building, and the permission setup stays correct.
Is the rules channel filled in?
No. Templates carry structure, never messages, so the channel arrives empty and the rules are yours to write.
Are templates really free?
Yes, all of them, on the free plan. Templates are contributed by the community and there is no paid tier for loading them.
Will loading a template delete my server?
It replaces the channels and roles with the ones in the template. Run /backup create first and you can undo it.
Do templates include messages or members?
No. A template only carries structure. Nothing personal from the original server is published with it.
How do I publish my own?
Create a template in your server’s own settings, under Server Template, then paste the link into the submit form here. You choose the name and description in Discord, and the category on the form.
Submit a templateWhat is the difference between a template and a backup?
A backup is private to your account and can include messages and member data. A template is public, structure only, and anyone can load it.
Why are there fewer templates here than on other galleries?
Because every submission is checked before it appears. A listing has to name and describe the server it actually offers, and anything with no place in a public gallery is refused, so a template called "test" with an empty description never reaches the listing. Galleries that publish whatever gets submitted are longer than this one, and most of what makes them longer is not worth loading.
Built a server worth copying?
Publish your server's template from the dashboard. Other admins can load it in one command, and you keep the upvotes.
