# Welcome

Configure the welcome message with an optional welcome image and welcome roles!

The welcome module is a nice way to welcome new members on your server! With this nice custom image, the new members are more attracted (only text is annoying...). You can also define welcome roles!

You will also get the welcome roles in the embed. (not showed in this screen because this is a new update :))

## Define anything in the welcome config

To define the welcome message, just use the <mark style="color:blue;">/config welcome set\_msg</mark> command, then click on the button and type the welcome message in the FIRST field. The second field is only to help you with variables and to use as a draft.

To set something else like the welcome channel, or if it's enabled or not, use the <mark style="color:blue;">/config welcome set</mark> and enter the values that you want to change. For example:

<mark style="color:blue;">/config welcome set channel:#new-channel</mark> to only change the channel\ <mark style="color:blue;">/config welcome set channel:#new-channel img\_enabled:False</mark> if you want to change the channel and if the image is sended!

## Set the welcome roles

To add or remove welcome roles, you can use the <mark style="color:blue;">/config welcome autorole</mark> command and set the <mark style="color:blue;">action</mark> parameter to <mark style="color:blue;">Add</mark> if you want to add or <mark style="color:blue;">Remove</mark> if you want to remove.\
The bot will then ask you for the role to add or remove. You have 30 seconds to ping the role to add/remove to the autoroles.\
And you are done!
