How to Setup Dyno on Your Server (5 Step Checklist)

Verified for 2026

Follow these steps in order to configure Dyno with proper permissions and channel assignments:

Invite Dyno via Verified OAuth2 Link

Click the Invite Dyno button above, select your Discord server from the dropdown, review the requested permissions, and click Authorize.

Position Dyno Role Above Member Roles

Open Server Settings > Roles. Drag the Dyno bot role directly above all regular member and muted roles so Dyno can manage them.

Create a Private Mod Log Channel

Create a text channel named #mod-logs and restrict its view permissions to administrators and moderators only.

Enable Auto-Mod Protection on Web Dashboard

Test Slash Commands in a Staff Channel

Type /warn and /mute in your staff channel to verify that Dyno responds with proper Discord permission prompts.

Role Hierarchy Rule for Dyno

The single most common complaint server admins make is that Dyno fails to assign roles, timeout troublemakers, or kick spam accounts. In 99% of cases, the cause is Discord Role Hierarchy:

How to position Dyno's role correctly:

1. Open Discord Server Settings and select Roles.

2. Locate the automated integration role labeled Dyno.

3. Drag Dyno higher on the list than any member, muted, or leveling roles it needs to assign.

Keep Dyno below your Server Owner and Senior Administrator roles so the bot cannot accidentally modify executive staff accounts.

Common Glitches & 60-Second Fixes for Dyno

Chat Channel Flooding

Create a #bot-commands channel and set a 10-second slowmode so members do not trigger multiple bot replies at the same time in general discussion.

Security & Bot Channel Architecture Guide

Proper channel layout prevents server chaos and stops bad actors from misusing bot commands. Here is how top Discord communities organize Dyno:

1. Isolate Bot Commands

Create a dedicated channel like #bot-commands. Disable Dyno slash command permissions across general chat so normal conversations remain neat and readable.

2. Hidden Mod Log Archive

Never make audit logs public. Direct all moderation notifications to a private staff channel visible strictly to moderators and server administrators.

3. Monthly Permission Audits

Every 30 days, review your Server Settings > Integrations list. Remove any experimental or unused bots to eliminate unnecessary security entry points.

Setup FAQ & Troubleshooting

Why is Dyno unable to ban, kick, or mute someone on my server?

Discord role hierarchy strictly blocks bots from moderating any user whose highest role is equal to or above the bot role. Open Server Settings > Roles and drag Dyno higher on the list.

How do I configure a private mod log channel in Dyno?

Create a private channel like #mod-logs, open the dyno.gg dashboard, click Modules > Action Log, and choose your channel from the dropdown.

Does Dyno support slash commands or require the question mark prefix?

Dyno supports both. Modern Discord servers use slash commands (/ban, /mute), but you can also use custom text prefixes like ?ban if enabled.

How do I prevent Dyno from responding in general chat channels?

Go to Discord Server Settings > Integrations > Dyno. You can disable command execution for general chat channels and limit commands to #bot-commands.

Is Dyno free to use for large Discord servers?

Yes. Dyno provides all fundamental moderation, slowmode, purge, and anti-spam tools completely free. Dyno Premium adds extra custom commands and auto-responders.

Can Dyno automatically delete scam links and discord server invites?

Yes. In the dyno.gg dashboard under Auto-Mod, enable Anti-Advertising and Anti-Link filters. Dyno will instantly delete unauthorized invite links and warn the sender.
