Config

The Config category covers setup, language, server settings, and backup/restore. Use this category when adding Melo to a new server or recovering from config mistakes.

Commands

Command What it does Access
/setup Runs the onboarding wizard Server owner only
/settings Opens the interactive settings panel Administrators / authorised users
/language Changes the server locale Server managers
/config Creates, lists, or restores config snapshots Server managers

/setup

The setup wizard creates the guild record, tracks onboarding progress, and can optionally create a recommended role template.

/setup start roles:Yes
/setup status
/setup reset

Role template

If you choose roles:Yes, Melo can create:

  • Manager
  • Admin
  • Moderator

Those roles are then saved into the guild settings so later moderation and setup tooling can reference them.

/settings

/settings opens an interactive panel with configuration groups for:

  • modules
  • permissions

The panel is designed for admins or explicitly authorised roles and users. It is ephemeral, so it stays out of public channels.

/language

/language switches the guild locale using one of the supported language choices.

/language locale:en
/language locale:de

/config

The config command works with snapshots. You can save and restore your server's core configuration state.

What gets captured

  • Locale and timezone
  • Manager, admin, and moderator role IDs
  • Automod status
  • Premium flags
  • Logging channels
  • Temporary voice channel settings

Usage examples

/config backup
/config list
/config restore index:1

Restores overwrite live configuration

Restoring a snapshot updates the live guild record. Treat it as a recovery tool, not a casual toggle.
