Getting started

What Graffiti is, what you need before you begin, and the shortest path to a working setup.

What Graffiti is

Graffiti is a Discord bot with a dashboard. It protects a server from scam links, known malicious images and copy-paste raids, gives moderators one consistent set of commands, and adds community tools: tickets, temporary voice rooms, welcomes, auto-roles, a Hall of Fame, a counting channel and an activity leaderboard.

Everything is a module, and every module is off until you switch it on — except activity tracking, which counts messages for the leaderboard from the start and can be turned off.

What you need

  • A Discord account with Administrator or Manage Server in the server you want to set up. Those are the servers the dashboard lists.
  • That's it. Graffiti is free; Premium adds a custom bot and higher ticket limits.

The shortest path to a working setup

  1. Add Graffiti to your server from the dashboard's server list.
  2. Open the server and go to General. Pick a mod log channel so every moderation action has a paper trail, and decide whether members are told when they are punished.
  3. Switch on Link protection for at least phishing and malware links. This is the protection most servers need first.
  4. Turn on anything else your community needs. Every change applies the moment you save.

Where things live

Settings are on the dashboard. Day-to-day moderation happens in Discord with slash commands like /ban and /timeout; type /help in your server for the full list. Text commands also work with the prefix g?, which you can change under General.
