The settings that apply to Bloom everywhere in your server: the prefix, the color of its replies, and how it presents itself in your member list.

The setup wizard

Administrator
Walks you through the basics with buttons: pick a theme, set your prefix, and optionally create the jail and mute roles and channels. It ends with a summary of what was configured.Running it on a server that is already set up shows the current configuration and offers to start over.
Each step waits a few minutes for an answer and then times out. Run !setup again to restart from the beginning; nothing from an abandoned run is saved.

Prefix

Administrator
Changes the character or characters that start a command. Alias: prefix.
  • Maximum 5 characters.
  • !setprefix > replies Prefix has been set to >, and commands become >help from then on.
  • Run !setprefix on its own to see the current prefix.
Locked out because nobody remembers the prefix? Mentioning Bloom works as a prefix, and b.help always works no matter what you set.

Color

Administrator
Sets the color of Bloom’s replies in this server. Alias: embcolor.
  • Takes a hex code in either form, #FF5733 or #f00.
  • Run it with no color to see what is set now.
Different Bloom features fall back to different colors when a server has not set one, so set a color explicitly if the exact shade matters. See Colors and defaults.

Bloom’s look in your server

Administrator
Changes the embed color and Bloom’s profile together.
  • !theme dark uses a dark embed color and clears any custom avatar and banner.
  • !theme light uses a white embed color with a matching light profile.
  • !theme color #FF5733 sets just the color, the same as embedcolor.
  • !theme custom avatar, !theme custom banner, and !theme custom bio <text> set Bloom’s look for this server only. Attach an image or give a URL.
  • Run !theme alone to see the current theme and color.
Server owner
The same per-server avatar, banner, and bio, restricted to the server owner and anyone they nominate. Aliases: serverprofile, botprofile.
  • !custom admin add @Someone lets that member change the profile. Only the owner can manage this list.
  • !custom bio Your text here sets the bio. Use \n for line breaks.
A per-server profile only changes how Bloom appears in your server. Other servers are unaffected.

Server icon and banner

Manage Server
Changes the server’s icon from an attached image or a URL. Alias: setguildicon. Bloom needs Manage Server.
Manage Server
Changes the server’s banner the same way. Alias: setguildbanner. Your server needs enough boosts for a banner, which is Discord’s requirement.
Prefix command
Replies with the dashboard link for this server. Aliases: dashboard, panel. See Dashboard access for who can open it.

Troubleshooting

Mention Bloom instead, as in @Bloom prefix, or run b.help, which works regardless of the prefix. Then set a memorable one with !setprefix.
Both are Discord features with their own requirements: banners need a boosted server, and images must be a supported format and size. Try a smaller PNG or JPG.
Its buttons expire after a few minutes of no answer. Run !setup again to start over.
