🔧 Troubleshooting

🛠️ General Steps

1. Update cord.nvim, make sure :Cord update is also executed.

2. Double-check your Discord Activity Privacy settings.

3. Enable logging. See FAQ.

4. Run :checkhealth cord for a config check.

5. Make sure the Discord IPC pipe exists:

   • Windows:

     Test-Path \\.\pipe\discord-ipc-0

   • Linux/macOS:

     find /tmp ${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR:+$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR} ${TMPDIR:+$TMPDIR} ${TMP:+$TMP} ${TEMP:+$TEMP} -type s -name 'discord-ipc-*' 2>/dev/null

   If you get nothing or "False", the pipe does not exist in the expected location.

🎛️ No Buttons in Rich Presence

You might not be seeing buttons in your own Rich Presence. This is due to a client-sided bug on the app.

But there is actually a way to see them, join a voice channel and hover over your name. Buttons should show up in the tooltip.

⏱️ Rich Presence Timer Stuck at 00:00

This usually means your system clock is off. Sync your clock with NTP.

❓ Still Having Trouble?

If nothing above works:

1. Check the FAQ for other common questions.
2. Look through existing GitHub issues.
3. Open a new issue. Be clear and include as much detail as possible.

You can also ask in Discussions or Discord if you're unsure.
