Server Settings

🛠️ Server Settings

Server Settings allow server administrators to configure EazyAutodelete’s behavior at the server level, including who has permission to use various bot commands. These settings apply server-wide and affect how users interact with the bot across all channels.

Server-Wide Configuration Options

Permission Role Configuration

Administrator Roles - Configure which roles can create and modify deletion configs and use administrative commands
Moderator Roles - Configure which roles can access moderation and logging commands without full admin privileges

Understanding Permission Roles

EazyAutodelete uses a role-based permission system to control access to different bot features. Rather than relying solely on Discord’s permission system, the bot allows you to designate specific roles that should have access to configuration and moderation features.

Why Custom Permission Roles?

Flexibility: Not everyone with Discord’s “Administrator” permission should be able to configure auto-deletion in every channel.

Granular Control: Separate admin capabilities (config management) from moderator capabilities (viewing logs and debug info).

Safety: Prevent accidental misconfiguration by limiting who can create and modify deletion rules.

Permission Hierarchy

Server Administrators (highest)
- Configure deletion configs with /setup
- Manage all EazyAutodelete settings
- Access all bot commands
- Users with Discord’s “Administrator” permission automatically have this level
Server Moderators (middle)
- View logs and debug information
- Access server statistics
- Cannot modify deletion configs
- Must have assigned moderator roles
All Users (lowest)
- Basic commands like /help and /premium
- View general information
- Cannot modify any settings

Best Practices

Setting Up Permission Roles

Create dedicated roles: Consider creating specific roles like “AutoDelete Admin” or “AutoDelete Manager”
Keep it limited: Only assign admin roles to trusted users who understand the bot
Use moderator roles wisely: Give moderator access to users who need to troubleshoot without config access
Regular audits: Periodically review who has which roles
Test changes: Verify role permissions work as expected after configuration

Common Configurations

Small servers:

Admin roles: Server Owner, Administrators
Mod roles: Moderators, Helpers

Large servers:

Admin roles: Server Owner, Head Admin, Bot Manager
Mod roles: Moderators, Trial Mods, Support Team

Bot-heavy servers:

Admin roles: Bot Admin (dedicated role)
Mod roles: Bot Support, Server Moderators

Configuring Roles

To configure permission roles for EazyAutodelete:

Ensure you have Discord’s “Administrator” permission or are the server owner
Use the bot’s server settings commands (check /help for specific commands)
Select the roles you want to assign as admin or moderator roles
Test the configuration with users who have those roles
