Guard setup

The Guard dashboard

Change Glitchworks Guard's settings for your server on the website. It changes the same settings as /settings in Discord, and changes work straight away.

Open the dashboard

You can change Glitchworks Guard's settings for your server here on the website, as well as with /settings in Discord. Both change the same settings, and changes work straight away.

  1. On glitchworks.uk, press Log in (top right, or in the menu on a phone).
  2. Log in with Discord. Guard only asks for your username, avatar and which servers you're in. It never sees your password or messages.
  3. Open Your Guard servers, or go to glitchworks.uk/dashboard/.
  4. Pick your server.

You'll see a server if Glitchworks Guard is in it and you own it or have Manage Server. This is checked with Discord every time you save. If you've just been given Manage Server, log out and in again.

You're logged out after 30 minutes without activity.

What's on it

Setup steps at the top show what's done and how to finish the rest. Creating channels, roles and panels (the Verify button, ticket panel, Held role and so on) is still done in Discord with /setup, because Guard has to make them in your server.

Then there's a section for each feature:

Dashboard sections

Every setting has a What does this do? button with a plain explanation, and a Recommended line with what we suggest for most servers and a Use recommended button.

Saving

  1. Change what you want. A bar at the bottom shows how many changes are waiting.
  2. Press Save changes. Or press Undo to put everything back.
  3. If something needs setting up first (for example, turning on welcome messages before picking a channel), it tells you.

Every change is posted in your Guard logs channel ("Settings changed on the website", with who and what), and listed under Recent changes at the bottom of the page.

Report someone from the website

On your account page there's a Report someone to Glitchworks Safety form. It works like /report user:

  1. Pick the server it happened in.
  2. Paste their Discord user ID (turn on Developer Mode in Discord Settings > Advanced, then right-click them > Copy User ID).
  3. Pick the category, say what happened and when, and add message links and up to 3 screenshots or PDFs (4 MB each).

By default only staff can report. To let members report, turn on Who can report to Glitchworks Safety: Any member under Member checks.

For child-safety reports, don't attach images. Call 999 if a child is in danger now, and report to CEOP and Discord.

Your own data

Anyone can log in to see reports they've made, any Glitchworks Safety listing about them (and appeal it), and download their Glitchworks Safety data. For everything a server holds about you, use /mydata get in that server. How we handle your data.

Questions

Dashboard questions
QuestionAnswer
My server isn't listedGuard must be in the server and you need Manage Server. Log out and in again after being given it.
A role isn't in the list for "Live now" or similarGuard can only give roles below its own. Move Glitchworks Guard up in Server Settings > Roles.
A setting says "only in Discord"It needs Guard to make something in your server. Use /setup or the feature's own setup command.
