Cider Support
Why is DiscordRPC not working?

Make sure that 'Display current activity as a status message' is enabled in your Activity Status category in the Discord settings. Cider will not appear as a game, so do not manually add it.

If you are using Discord from the Snap Store, you are advised to install from a different source (Discords Website or using another package manager). The Snap Store version of Discord is known to have issues with DiscordRPC.

Ensure that you are running Discord on a level that is below Cider. If Discord is being elevated, Cider will be unable to connect. Furthermore, ensure that Discord is started first. Cider has to connect to Discord and this is only done on Cider's launch. So make sure Discord is started before Cider.

wait what do you mean its elevated

#

im so confused

prisma rain
#

idk what to do

# prisma rain wait what do you mean its elevated

Just means running as admin as opposed to normal user, changes a bunch of internet stuff that breaks a bunch of stuff

But on MacOS discord will most likely never run as admin so don’t worry about that

#

Idk how2mac so, I suppose make sure everything is running properly and that discord was launched and fully loaded before cider was

#

The NodeJS bindings for discord rpc are famously shit

prisma rain
#

okay okay

#

not to my knowledge

if you have any other applications that might be connected it'd be worth checking in your activity settings to see if another application is connecting first (Discord RPC is first-come-first-serve).

MacOS Discord and stuff like this is weirdly inconsistent

swift sinew
#

think its probs just a bug with electron backend since the move over to the new rpc customisation shit

#

people been sayin linux havin issues as well

prisma rain
#

okay

#

so i guess its a bug then

it appears that is the case
