How to transfer ownership on discord

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you’ve built an incredible community on Discord, but now you’re ready to step away or pass the reins to someone else? Perhaps you’re looking to focus on other projects, or maybe you’ve realized that a fellow member is better suited to lead your server. Transferring ownership can seem daunting, especially if you’re unsure about the steps involved. In this post, we’ll guide you through the process of transferring ownership on Discord with ease.

To transfer ownership of a Discord server, you must have the role of Owner. Right-click on the server name, select “Server Settings,” choose “Members,” find the member you want to transfer to, click on their role, and select “Transfer Ownership.”

Transferring ownership of a Discord server involves a few straightforward steps, but it’s vital to ensure that the right process is followed to avoid any issues. First, make sure you are the current owner of the server. Only the owner has the ability to pass this role onto another member.

1. Open Discord: Start by launching the Discord app or accessing it through your web browser.

2. Select Your Server: Click on the server from which you want to transfer ownership.

3. Access Server Settings: Right-click on the server name located at the top left corner to reveal a dropdown menu. From that menu, select “Server Settings.”

4. Navigate to Members: In the settings menu, find and click on “Members” under the “User Management” section on the left-hand side. This will display a list of all the server members.

5. Find the New Owner: Scroll through the list or use the search bar to locate the member to whom you wish to transfer ownership.

6. Transfer Ownership: Once you’ve found the member, click on their name to open their member settings. Here, you’ll see the option that says “Transfer Ownership.” Click on this, and Discord will prompt you to confirm the action.

7. Confirm: Ensure that you truly want to transfer ownership because this action is irreversible. After confirming, the selected member will become the new owner of the server.

And that’s it! You’ve successfully transferred ownership of your Discord server. Remember that as the previous owner, you will still retain all permissions unless you choose to remove yourself entirely from the server.
