Welcome

Greet new members with a configurable message​

Overview​

The Welcome module sends a message to a designated channel whenever a new member joins your server. Messages support dynamic variables and can be sent as a plain text message or a rich embed. An optional DM welcome can also be sent directly to the new member.

Setup​

  1. Run /settings welcome to open the Welcome settings.
  2. Click Set Channel and choose the channel where welcome messages will be posted.
  3. Click Set Message to customize the message. Use {user} to mention the member, {server} for the server name, and {membercount} for the current member count.
  4. (Optional) Click Embed Settings to enable a rich embed and configure an optional footer and image. The embed color matches your server's configured branding color.
  5. (Optional) Click DM Settings to enable a direct message sent to the new member on join.
  6. Click Enable to activate the module.

Usage​

Once configured:

  • When a member joins, Aether posts the welcome message to the configured channel.
  • If an embed is enabled, the message is rendered as a Discord embed using the server's branding color, with an optional footer and image.
  • If DM welcome is enabled, the member also receives a direct message. If the member has DMs disabled, the failure is silently ignored.

Available variables for both the channel message and DM message:

VariableReplaced with
{user}A mention of the new member
{server}The server name
{membercount}The current member count after the join
