DayZ Website Templates

Who a DayZ community website is for

If you run a DayZ server, most of your day-to-day life still happens in Discord — voice, tickets, shitposting after a bad night on the coast. That is fine. The problem is discovery. New players searching for a Chernarus or Livonia community do not live inside your Discord yet. They need a public page that answers the boring questions quickly: is the server up, what are the rules, how do I whitelist, who is staff, where do I join Discord.

These DayZ website templates are built for that public layer. They suit PvE traders, hardcore PvP, lightly moderated RP towns, faction servers and small friend-group communities that still want to look intentional. You keep your game host wherever it already is. GameSignal only hosts the website that sits in front of it.

If you only need a single invite link and never plan to publish rules or applications, you probably do not need a site. If you are tired of pasting the same answers into DMs every wipe, a DayZ community website pays for itself in fewer support threads.

Pages included on a DayZ template

Exact layout differs between Cherno Refuge, Blackpine Outpost and Ashfall, but the job of each design is the same: give survivors a clear path from “found you” to “connected and in Discord”.

• Home / status — community name, short pitch, server connection details and a status-style treatment so the site does not feel like a brochure.
• Rules — base building, KoS, loot, vehicles, voice and whatever house rules your staff actually enforce.
• Staff — who runs the place, so players know who to trust when something goes wrong.
• Whitelist / applications — where relevant, a clear route to apply instead of a buried Discord channel.
• Discord — a join path that is obvious on every important page, not only the footer.
• Wipe / schedule notes — space for next wipe, map choice or restart times without rewriting the whole site.
• Store links — optional, when you run supporter packages or cosmetics through an external shop.

Ashfall adds richer pieces on top of that — video hero, wipe countdown, whitelist form and gallery lightbox — which is why it is sold as a Premium template rather than bundled with every plan.

How setup works

Pick the DayZ design that fits your community mood, then choose a hosting plan. Community starts at £5.99/mo and includes a standard game template (Cherno Refuge or Blackpine Outpost). You send community name, logo, Discord invite, server IP or connection notes, and any rule text you already have. We put the site on premium web hosting with SSL so players get a normal HTTPS address.

Want to tweak copy, colours or images yourself afterwards? Use the edit templates guide — it walks through Visual Studio Code and GIMP without assuming you build sites for a living. Prefer we handle branding changes? Higher plans include more hands-on help.

One important boundary: this is not DayZ game server hosting. We do not rent you the box that runs the .exe. We host the website your players open in a browser. Keep your game server with the provider you already trust; the site simply points people at it.

Choosing between Cherno Refuge, Blackpine and Ashfall

Cherno Refuge is the classic survival look — woodland palette, connect card, feature tiles and gallery. It reads well for general public servers that want something recognisably “DayZ” without feeling military.

Blackpine Outpost leans colder and more industrial: status ticker, terminal-style connect panel, ops rows. It fits faction, milsim-flavoured or no-nonsense PvP communities that want the site to feel like an outpost briefing rather than a travel blog.

Ashfall (£14.99 one-time) is the premium multipurpose option when you want the trailer-style hero, live console treatment, wipe clock and built-in whitelist form. Use it when the standard templates feel too light for how ambitious your community already is.
