Give a role to new members (Autorole)

With MEE6 you can automatically give a role to new members that join your server with the autorole feature.
This feature is useful if you want your members to have a special role in your server, or to simply add some color to their name to brighten up your server.


How to set up autoroles



It's pretty simple to set up, and all you need to do is go to your server dashboard > Server Management > Welcome

Location of the plugin

Once here, enable the option "Give a role to new users", then add the roles you want MEE6 to give to new members when they join your server.

Give role option within the welcome plugin

For MEE6 to be able to give roles to new members, make sure MEE6 is above the role in your role hierarchy. Also, make sure that the MEE6 role has manage roles permission enabled.

"Delay at server rules acceptance" option



If you run a community Discord server, this option might come handy. It allows you to give roles only after the user has accepted your rules, and not before: this preserves Discord's anti-raid protections which prevent newcomers from sending messages before they have accepted the rules (this protection is deactivated as soon as the user gets a role).
