What is the Panel Page?
The Panel page of your dashboard controls how the Mod Panel behaves for your staff. Server-wide settings like your name, join code and API tokens are on General Settings instead.
Click Save after each change.
Panel Access
Click Open moderator panel to open your server's panel, or Copy Link to share it with staff.
Staff can only open the panel once they're members of your server, through your join code or Discord linked roles.
Moderation Settings
Automatic Ban BOLO
Create a Ban BOLO automatically when a player collects too many punishments.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Create Ban BOLO after Punishment Logs Count Reached | Turns automatic Ban BOLOs on or off |
| Auto Ban BOLO Punishment Logs Count | How many punishment logs a player needs before a Ban BOLO is created |
Only warnings and kicks count, and the count resets after a ban. See Ban BOLOs.
Allow Users to See Their Own Logs
Turn on Allow Users to see their own Logs to let players view the punishment logs issued to them. Click Copy Link to Logs Page to get a link to share with your community.
This also lets staff hide individual logs from the player. See Hiding a log.
Punishment Presets
Presets are saved punishments your staff can apply in one click from the log form. They need Melonly Plus. Click Manage punishment presets to add, edit or remove them.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | What staff see in the preset list, for example "Rule 1" |
| Reason | The reason added to the log |
| Type | Warn, Kick, Ban, Ban Bolo, Note, or one of your custom types |
| Temporary Ban Duration (hours) | Ban presets only. Fills in a temporary ban, for example 24 for one day |
To see how staff use presets, read Creating Logs.
Custom Log Types
Add your own log types next to the built-in ones, such as "Verbal Warning". This needs Melonly Plus. Click Manage custom log types to set them up.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The type's name, for example "Verbal Warning" |
| Action Verb | The verb used in the player's DM, for example "Verbally Warned" |
| Permitted Roles | Members with these roles can use this type. Administrators always can |
| Ingame Invocation Command | Lets staff use this type in-game with :log [type] [username] [reason]. No spaces |
| Don't Count | The type won't count toward a player's previous punishments |
Staff Requests
Staff requests let moderators call for backup from the panel. Each request posts to a Discord channel. See Request Staff for how staff use it.
Your server must be linked to Discord. Without it, the card shows Discord Integration Required with a Configure linked guild button.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Enable Staff Request Module | Turns staff requests on and adds Request Staff to the panel's Toolbox |
| Discord Channel | Where requests are posted. Required. Melonly needs permission to send messages there |
| Cooldown | Minutes before anyone can request staff again. 5 to 120, default 5. Shared by the whole server |
| Mentioned Roles | Up to 3 Discord roles to ping with each request. You can also pick @here |
| Required Roles | Only members with one of these roles can request staff. Administrators always can |
With Melonly Plus, click the message icon next to Discord Channel to customise the request message. You can use variables such as {user}, {reason}, {onduty}, {players} and {ingamestaff}.
In-Game PMs
Turn on Enable In-Game PM on Staff Request to PM off-duty staff in-game whenever someone requests staff. Off-duty means staff who are in your ER:LC server but not on a Melonly shift. This needs Melonly Plus and the ER:LC integration.
Set the message in Custom PM Message (up to 100 characters). If you leave it empty, Melonly sends "A staff request was made; please respond in-game."
