Join messages
Greet every new member with a personal embed and optionally hand them roles automatically the moment they join.
A join message is the first thing someone sees when they arrive in your server. Rimpllee can post a custom embed welcoming them by name, and — if you want — give them one or more roles automatically. Everything is configured under Welcomer → Join in the dashboard.
Want to say goodbye too? Set up a matching Leave message so departures get a send-off as well.
Set up a join message
- 1
Open Welcomer → Join
In the dashboard sidebar, go to Welcomer → Join and turn on the join message.
- 2
Pick the channel
Choose the channel the welcome embed posts in, such as #welcome or #general. Every new member's greeting lands there.
- 3
Build the embed
Write the title and description, set a color, and add any images or fields you like. See the embed builder below.
- 4
Add auto-roles (optional)
Pick the roles new members should receive automatically. Leave this empty if you don't want to assign anything.
- 5
Save
Press save and welcome a friend — or rejoin yourself — to see it in action.
The embed builder
The embed is fully customizable. Titles and descriptions support placeholders, so you can drop in the member's name, the server name and more — see Placeholders for the full list.
- Author + icon
- A small line of text at the top of the embed with an optional icon next to it.
- Title
- The bold heading of the embed. Supports placeholders.
- Description
- The main body text. Supports placeholders and inline formatting.
- Color
- The accent stripe down the left edge of the embed.
- Image
- A large image shown below the description.
- Thumbnail
- A small image in the top-right corner, often the member's avatar.
- Fields
- Up to 3 named fields for extra details, such as rules links or where to get started.
- Footer
- A small line of text at the very bottom of the embed.
Make it personal
Placeholders turn a generic notice into a real welcome. Try greeting {user_mention} and showing how big the community is with {member_count} — for example “Welcome {user_mention}, you're member #{member_count}!”
Auto-roles
Auto-roles are roles that Rimpllee assigns to every member as soon as they join — handy for a default member role, a starter role, or region pings you'll let people change later. Pick as many as you need in the Auto-roles section.
Keep the Rimpllee role high enough
Discord won't let any bot assign a role that sits above its own. In Server Settings → Roles, drag the Rimpllee role above every role it should hand out, or auto-roles will silently fail. More on this in Invite Rimpllee.
