What is Activating?
A server subscription doesn't do anything until you activate it on a server. Activating links it to that server and unlocks its features there.
You do this in Manage subscriptions on your dashboard. If you own a subscription that isn't on a server yet, the dashboard also shows an Inactive Subscriptions banner with a link to the same window.
Activating a Subscription
- Open Manage subscriptions
On your dashboard, click Manage subscriptions. The window also opens by itself right after checkout.
- Choose the subscription
Pick it from Select Subscription to Activate. Each item in a bundle is listed separately.
- Choose the server
Pick a server in the field below. You can choose any Melonly server you're a member of.
- Activate
Click Activate server.
| Subscription | Where it goes |
|---|---|
| Melonly Plus | One server. Servers that already have Plus can't be picked |
| Watchdog | One server. Servers that already have Watchdog can't be picked |
| Departments | Your parent server. Several Departments subscriptions on one server add together |
| Vision Team Seats | The server whose moderators need Vision. You then assign the seats to them |
You don't need to activate everything:
- Melonly Pro and Auto Vote slots are on your account, so they aren't listed here.
- A Melonly Plus trial activates by itself on the server you chose for it.
Moving or Removing a Subscription
Your active subscriptions are listed in the table at the bottom of the window, with the server each one is on.
- Remove it from the server
Click the remove icon on its row. The server loses those features, and the subscription is free to use again.
- Activate it somewhere else (optional)
Pick it again in Select Subscription to Activate, choose the new server and click Activate server.
Removing a subscription from a server doesn't cancel it, so you keep paying. To stop paying, see Cancelling a Subscription.
Good to Know
- Only the person who bought a subscription can activate or remove it.
- A paused subscription can't be activated or removed until it's running again. See Paused Subscriptions.
