When someone joins, your bot posts a welcome picture in your welcome channel and gives them a Member role. When someone leaves, it says goodbye.

​
Before you start

Join and leave events need the Server Members Intent. In the Discord Developer Portal, open your bot, open Bot, and switch on Server Members Intent.

​
Step 1: Make the welcome card

  1. Open Card Studio and pick a welcome template. Press Use this.
  2. Put the person’s name on it with {user_displayName} and the member count with {server_members}.
  3. Use Send me a test to see the real card in your DMs.
  4. Save.

​
Step 2: The welcome event

  1. Open Events and make a new event.
  2. Pick the event for when a member joins (search for join).
  3. Add Give roles and pick your Member role.
  4. Add Make an image card and pick your welcome card.
  5. Add a block that sends a message to a channel (search for channel). Pick your welcome channel and write:
  1. Save and switch the event on.

​
Step 3: The goodbye event

  1. Make another new event for when a member leaves (search for leave).
  2. Add a block that sends a message to your welcome channel: {user_name} left us. Bye!
  3. Save and switch it on.

​
Step 4: Test it

Ask a friend to join, or join with a second account. If nothing happens, check:
  • Is the event switched on?
  • Is the Server Members Intent on?
  • Can the bot see and write in the welcome channel?
  • Open Error Logs to see what went wrong.

​
Make it yours

  • Send a private hello too: add a block that sends a direct message (search for direct).
  • Count joins: add Do the maths on a Number variable joins (scope Server Specific), + 1, and show {DBVAR_joins} in the message.
