Owners — Public profile + vanity slug

Every guild on AO Master has a public profile at /g/<id-or-slug>. The page renders the widgets you've enabled on Settings → Public Profile — banner, About, Recent Kills, War Roles, Messages, etc.

The default URL uses the guild's database ID — long + ugly. A vanity slug lets you set a custom short URL.

Permissions

Manage Guild to set or change the vanity slug.

Setting a vanity slug

  1. Open the Settings → Public Profile tab.
  2. Vanity slug field — type your preferred slug (e.g. minions).
  3. Save.

Your guild is now reachable at /g/<your-slug>. The original ID-based URL keeps working as a redirect.

Slug rules

  • 3-32 characters.
  • Letters, numbers, hyphens only.
  • Lowercased automatically (MyGuild becomes myguild).
  • Globally unique across all of AO Master — first come, first served. If your preferred slug is taken, the form will tell you.

You can change the slug whenever you want. The old slug 410-redirects for 30 days, then becomes available for other guilds to claim.

What visitors see

Anyone visiting /g/<your-slug> sees the public Welcome page you configured. Visibility is gated by the Visibility dropdown on Settings → Public Profile:

  • Public — listed on Guild Discovery — your guild also shows up on the Guild Discovery directory.
  • Unlisted — accessible via link only — the page works for anyone with the URL but isn't browse-able from Discovery.
  • Private — staff only — visitors get a "not found" response.

Share-friendly URLs

The vanity slug makes your URL easy to drop in Discord, Reddit, Twitter, forums:

  • https://ao-master.com/g/minions — short + memorable.
  • Opens to the public Welcome page with banner + recruitment status + Discord invite (when configured).

Combined with Open for recruitment on Settings → Public Profile, the URL doubles as a recruitment landing — visitors see an Apply to join button at the top.

🚧 Skeleton release — most pages are placeholders. Content fills in section-by-section.
