Discord Meta Tricker: Make your own embeds using URLs

Project URL: https://discordmetatricker.glitch.me

Basically, It takes advantage of Discord’s website preview feature to create embeds. Just fill out the form, and copy the link it redirects you to.

Example: This link: https://discordmetatricker.glitch.me/render.php?title=Title&url=https%3A%2F%2Fprivacy.com&desc=Description&img=https%3A%2F%2Fpicsum.photos%2F200

I don’t think this has gotten enough love.
If I were to make a suggestion, maybe a small blurb on the redirect page informing the person that clicked the link about the meta tricker, as to not scare them from seeing the redirect, or maybe instead of an automatic redirect it could be a button on screen showing the person the website it is about to take them to, allowing to user to proceed if they wish?

Although, today it seems to not be waking up like it was a little bit ago, little worried I hope you haven’t canned this :slightly_frowning_face:

If I might ask, might I use this for my website? In other words, code a function that assembles a metatricker link and then presents it somewhere on that page? Reason being is I have this static webpage that is coded in a way to load data from objects and presents it to the page based on a Query string. Unfortunately doing this has resulted in not being able to have embeds based on the content loaded to the page, given it’s static in nature, thus why I’d like to use this.

If you’re alright with me doing this, I can provide credit and a link to you, and if you’re not then I understand and thank you anyways. :slight_smile:

Hello,

I don’t think I’ve even seen this code in a couple of years actually lol

I made it when I was kinda stupid and just learning about meta tags.

Anyways yeah, you can use this for your website, you don’t even need to credit me, as it’s really a project I threw together in a couple of minutes haha.

Still, it’s really useful for what it’s worth, at least for cases such as mine. Certainly can’t say I have the brains for doing something like this myself.

I will say, however, opening up the project url or trying to open a link created by the metatricker seems to be offline, and it’s not been starting up no matter how long I’ve been waiting for it when previously it woke up in a matter of seconds. Is there maintenance going on in your end or something else if you don’t mind my asking? Again thanks.

I haven’t touched the code since like 2020, however, but maybe the php template is broken.
