Automatic Welcome Messages

A quick example for each part of Welcomer: welcome message, welcome card, DM, leave message, and auto-roles.

1

What Welcomer does

Welcomer has four tabs, each on its own switch and completely independent of the others: a welcome message posted to a channel, a private DM, a leave message, and roles handed out automatically on join. Turn on only the ones you want.

Example: welcome message + welcome card

The welcome message posts to a channel as soon as someone joins. Turn on the Welcome Card below it and AutoMod generates a banner image to go with it, with a title and subtitle over a background you choose:

FieldValue
Channel#welcome
Message👋 Welcome {user_mention} to the server! You're member {member_count}.
Welcome Card: TitleWelcome, {user_name}!
Welcome Card: SubtitleYou're our {join_position} member!

Example: welcome DM

A private message sent straight to the new member, separate from anything posted in a channel. Good for onboarding info that doesn't need to be public:

FieldValue
MessageHey {user_name}! Thanks for joining {server_name}. Check out #rules and #roles to get started.

Example: leave message

Posted to a channel when a member leaves. There's no card option here because a former member's avatar isn't reliably available once they've left, so it stays a plain message or embed:

FieldValue
Channel#server-log
Message{user_tag} has left the server. We're now at {member_count} members.

Example: auto-roles on join

Give one or more roles automatically when someone joins, with separate lists for members and bots:

FieldValue
User RolesMember
Bot RolesBots

You've got the basics

Mix and match freely. A common setup is a public welcome message with a card, a DM with more detailed rules, and one auto-role that unlocks the rest of the server.
