Most servers only need the Discord one. The Twitch one is for anyone in your community who streams.

Twitch

You don’t have to stream yourself. If someone in your community does, add their channel and the link shows a live badge while they’re on.

Discord

Sign in with Discord, then paste your server’s invite. Your page shows how many people are online with no widget and no server ID, and we never add a bot or read your messages.

Desk Hours
A Discord server for studying alongside other people
The rooms are silent, so you never have to say a word to anyone.
The study hallWho’s online shows here (on a real page, from Discord)There’s someone in the silent rooms at any hour. Please read the rules first.
Before you join
Server rules
1. Camera on and mic muted in the silent rooms. Seeing everyone else working helps you keep going. 2. Post what you’re working on when you join. One line is fine. 3. We work for 50 minutes and break for 10. The bot keeps time. 4. Please don’t give study advice unless someone asks for it in #help. 5. Leave whenever you want. You don’t need to say bye.

Behind a password
Desk Hours, an example: @deskhours
Desk Hours is a study server, so its five rules come first. One of the rooms is behind a password.
Start from this page

Change your invite without changing your link.

My invite keeps expiring or getting replaced

Your Portage link doesn’t expire. Your editor warns you when an invite is about to run out, and swapping in a new one takes a second.

From The Long Portage, an example page

We run the same nights every week

Add your weekly nights once. Every visitor sees them in their own time zone, and can add them to their calendar.

From Hill Repeats, an example page

Some of our rooms aren’t for everyone

Put a password on any link. Its address isn’t in your page at all until someone types the password.

Some of our rooms aren’t for everyone
Put a password on any link. Its address isn’t in your page at all until someone types the password.
People want to see it’s active before they join
Your page shows how many people are online and how many have joined, read from the invite itself. No widget, no server ID, no bot.
New members need the rules before the invite
Put your rules above the invite, so they’re read before anyone presses Join.
We schedule events in Discord
Paste an event’s link from Discord. Your page shows when it starts, says Live now while it’s on, then clears itself.

We’re Cadenic Studios, a small studio in Edmonton, and we also build Discord servers and bots for clients.

How these work, step by step: a schedule in every time zone and password and age locks.

Questions from people who run servers.

Can I change the Discord invite without changing my link?

Yes. Your Portage link stays the same everywhere you’ve posted it, and you can paste in a new invite whenever you need one.

Does the online count update by itself?

Yes. It comes from your invite and refreshes every few minutes, with no widget to turn on. If an invite stops working, the count goes away and your editor tells you.

Can people find my server by searching for it?

Yes. Turn on search indexing in the editor, and people who search for your server’s name can find your page and the invite on it.

Is it really free? What’s the catch?

No catch. Every feature is free for everyone. You only pay if you want an identity or business check, Unmarked to take the Portage credit off a business page, room to look after more than ten clients’ pages from one account, or custom work from the studio. None of those adds a feature. Every free page has a small Made with Portage line at the bottom, ours included, and your page never comes down because you didn’t buy something.

Give your server a link that keeps working.

Once you’ve picked a handle, add your server’s invite and your page is ready to share.
