The title says it all! Someone please help me!
How can I upload a custom widget to XenForo? I'm trying to install a Discord-related widget to show the users of my server online on the forum via the widget.

Thanks in advance to whoever replies to me! (BOT, you're included! )

I don’t see an import option under the add widget section in my Admin control panel for XenForo. Am I missing something?

That was much better, and works exactly the way I expected it to for XenForo 2. Thanks again for your helpful response!
