Troubleshooting
Slash commands are not showing
Try these checks:
- Open Server Settings → Integrations → VerifyBot and confirm the app is installed.
- Open Server Settings → Roles → VerifyBot and make sure command-related permissions are enabled.
- If you just invited VerifyBot, wait a few minutes and check again. Discord sometimes needs a short delay before new commands appear.
- If commands still do not appear, re-invite VerifyBot using the official invite link from this docs repo.
VerifyBot cannot assign roles
Try these checks:
- Open Server Settings → Roles.
- Drag the VerifyBot role above the role you want VerifyBot to give (for example,
Verified). - In the VerifyBot role permissions, make sure Manage Roles is enabled.
- Confirm the target role has been allowed in VerifyBot with
/addverifyrole.
Plain-English note: Discord only lets a bot assign roles that are below the bot’s own role in the role list.
Verification message is not working
Try these checks:
- Open the verify channel, then click Edit Channel → Permissions.
- Make sure VerifyBot can:
- View Channel
- Send Messages
- Embed Links
- Run
/setreactionverifyagain and double-check channel, role, and emoji choices. - If you recently changed emoji/role settings, create a fresh verification message.
Logs are not posting
Try these checks:
- Run
/setlogsagain and select the correct log channel. - Open the log channel → Edit Channel → Permissions and confirm VerifyBot can send messages there.
- If you use webhook-based logs, make sure that log destination is still active.
Plain-English note: A webhook is just another way Discord can deliver bot messages to a channel.
Role order problems
Common sign:
- A verify command says success, but no role appears on the member.
Fix:
- Open Server Settings → Roles.
- Move the VerifyBot role higher than your verification roles.
- Test again with
/verifyon a test member.
Plain-English note: You may hear this called “role hierarchy”. It simply means the top-to-bottom role order in Server Settings → Roles.
What to send support
If you still need help, share this in support:
- server name
- command used
- what you expected
- what happened instead
- screenshot of roles or permissions if relevant
