How to Setup ProBot on Your Server (5 Step Checklist)
Verified for 2026Follow these steps in order to configure ProBot with proper permissions and channel assignments:
Invite ProBot with Verified OAuth Link
Add ProBot to your community using our verified invite link, granting basic moderation and messaging rights.
Sign In to the ProBot Web Dashboard
Visit probot.io, log in with your Discord account, and select your server from the control dashboard.
Customize Welcome Image Cards
Navigate to the Welcome section, select your welcome channel, and design a custom banner with user avatar circles.
Enable the XP Leveling System
Turn on Leveling in the dashboard, set custom text cards, and specify role rewards when members hit levels 5, 10, or 20.
Turn On Auto-Mod Chat Filters
Activate automated spam detection, discord invite link deletion, and bad word filters to protect public channels.
Role Hierarchy Rule for ProBot
The single most common complaint server admins make is that ProBot fails to assign roles, timeout troublemakers, or kick spam accounts. In 99% of cases, the cause is Discord Role Hierarchy:
1. Open Discord Server Settings and select Roles.
2. Locate the automated integration role labeled ProBot.
3. Drag ProBot higher on the list than any member, muted, or leveling roles it needs to assign.
Keep ProBot below your Server Owner and Senior Administrator roles so the bot cannot accidentally modify executive staff accounts.

Common Glitches & 60-Second Fixes for ProBot
Bot Not Responding to Slash Commands
Open Server Settings > Integrations > ProBot. Check whether command execution was accidentally turned off for specific channels or roles.
Discord Error 50013: Missing Permissions
This error occurs when ProBot tries to mute, ban, or modify a member whose role is positioned above the bot. Drag ProBot's role above regular members.
Bot Offline or High Latency
Check our real-time Voice & Outage Radar to verify if Discord API gateway servers are undergoing maintenance.
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 ProBot:
1. Isolate Bot Commands
Create a dedicated channel like #bot-commands. Disable ProBot 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.

How do I customize welcome image cards with ProBot?
Sign in to probot.io, choose your server, click Welcome on the sidebar, and choose your preferred background image, avatar frame, and welcome text.

Credits are virtual points members claim using /daily. They can be used to customize rank card backgrounds and profile badges.
