Welcomer

Set up automatic welcome, leave, and join DM messages with fully customizable embeds.

The Welcomer system lets you send automatic messages when members join or leave your server, or send DMs to new members. Messages support rich embeds with variables for dynamic content.


Quick Setup

  1. Use /welcome channel #your-channel to set the welcome channel

  2. Use /welcome gui to open the message editor

  3. Customize your message with variables

  4. Use /welcome on to enable welcome messages

  5. Use /welcome test to preview your message

Repeat the same steps for leave messages (/leave) and join DMs (/joindm).


Message Types

Each welcomer type (welcome, leave, join DM) has five message variants to handle different scenarios:

Type
When it's used

Normal

The inviter was successfully identified

Vanity

The member joined using the server's vanity URL

Bot

A bot was added to the server

No Perms

The bot doesn't have permission to track invites

Unknown

The inviter could not be determined

circle-info

Set each type separately to provide accurate information. For example, the unknown type shouldn't reference {inviter} since the inviter is unknown.

Tips

  • Use the GUI editor (/welcome gui) for the easiest experience β€” it opens a Discord modal where you can type your message.

  • Always set up an Unknown message type for when the bot can't identify the inviter.

  • Use /welcome test to preview your message before enabling it.

  • The bot needs the Send Messages and Embed Links permissions in your welcome/leave channel.

  • For join DMs to work, the member must have DMs enabled. Use /verification channel to set a fallback channel.
