WriterStats Server Settings

This page details how you can set up WriterStats moderator roles and default server settings on your server. Skip this page if this is not applicable to you.

info

To add and manage WriterStats moderator roles, you need either the Administrator or Manage Server permission on your server of choice.

Setting WriterStats Moderator Roles​

WriterStats allows you to appoint "Server Moderators" who have powers such as:

  • The ability to force cancel sessions in the server, even if they didn't start them.
  • The ability to set server defaults for group sessions (explored in the next section).
  • The ability to update a bot's webhook in a channel.

This power makes it necessary to only grant this privilege to appointed roles in a server, such as moderators or "WriterStats Moderators" selected by the server owner.
