Getting Started

What you need

• A Discord server on which you are allowed to Server verwalten (manage server) — or which you own.
• A browser. Nothing else — no hosting, no token, no console.

Fishbot is set up in the Dashboard: sign in, pick a server, click a module, save. Anyone who would rather stay in Discord can configure every module by slash command instead — both routes lead to the same result, and you can switch at any time.

Step 1: Invite the bot

On the start page, click Zum Server hinzufügen (add to server). Discord asks you which server the bot should join and which permissions it gets. Confirm both.

If the server is missing from the list, you do not have enough permissions there. Then someone with "Server verwalten" has to invite the bot.

Step 2: Sign in

Click Anmelden (sign in) at the top right. You sign in with the same Discord account you use on the server. All we see as a result is your name, your avatar and the list of your servers — not your messages.

Step 3: Pick a server

In the dashboard you see every server on which you have a say. Servers with a green dot already have the bot; the others show an Einladen (invite) button.

Step 4: Build your first embed

In the dashboard, go to Embeds, or type /embed create in Discord. Both lead to the same result — take whichever you prefer:

	Dashboard	In Discord
Handling	form with a preview next to it	buttons and input windows
Good for	longer texts, many fields	posting something quickly
Saving	yes	yes

The details are in the article Embed-Builder.

Step 5: Check that everything works

Type /status in Discord. The bot replies with its plan, its response time and a link to the dashboard. If no answer comes, the list under When something does not work helps.
