txAdmin logs in Discord

What you get

See what your admins do in txAdmin, in Discord. Glitchworks Guard posts:

• Bans, kicks, warnings and revoked bans in a private log channel, with the reason, who did it and when a ban expires.
• Announcements and restart warnings in a public channel Optional, so players know when the server is restarting. One message per restart, updated as it counts down, so the channel isn't flooded.

You'll need

• Glitchworks Link installed and linked. txAdmin itself needs nothing extra.

Step 1: Choose the channels

1. Type /fivem setup > txAdmin logs.
2. Private log channel: pick a staff-only channel, or press Create #txadmin-logs (only Guard and your staff role can see it). Leave it blank to use your Guard logs channel.
3. Public channel Optional: for announcements and restart warnings, for example #announcements or #server-status.
4. In What goes in the public channel, tick txAdmin announcements and/or Restart warnings.

Step 2: Turn it on

Press Turn on.

Step 3: Test it

1. In txAdmin, warn yourself (Players > your name > Warn). The warning appears in your log channel within a few seconds.
2. Send a txAdmin announcement: it appears in your public channel.

Checking someone's bans

Staff can type /fivem bans @member to see txAdmin bans Guard has seen for them: active or expired, the reason, and when it ends.

What Guard keeps about bans: only bans for players whose Discord was linked to FiveM: their Discord ID, the reason, the date and the expiry. No names, licences, IP addresses or hardware IDs are kept. A ban record is deleted when the ban is revoked in txAdmin, 30 days after it expires, or if the member's /mydata delete request is approved. Members can see theirs with /mydata get.

Choosing which events are sent

All events are on by default. To turn one off, edit config.lua in the glitchworks_link folder:

Config.TxAdmin = {
    Enabled = true,
    Events = {
        playerBanned = true,
        playerKicked = false,   -- don't send kicks
        ...

Then type restart glitchworks_link in the server console.
