- A **field name/title** is limited to **256 character** and the **value of the field** is limited to **1024 characters**
- Embed **footer** is limited to **2048 characters**
- Embed **author name** is limited to **256 characters**
-- The **total of characters** allowed in an embed is **6000**
+- The **total characters** of all embeds in a single message is limited to **6000**
+- A message is limited to **10 embeds**
Now if you need to get over this limit (for example for a help command), you would need to use pagination.
There are several ways to do that:
-- A library called **[disputils](https://pypi.org/project/disputils)**
- An experimental library made by the discord.py developer called **[discord-ext-menus](https://github.com/Rapptz/discord-ext-menus)**
- Make your own setup using **[wait_for()](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for)** and wait for a reaction to be added
