What Are Logs?
Logs allow you to monitor all point-related activities in your server. Every time someone earns, spends, or receives points, the bot can automatically post a message to a Discord channel of your choice.
Getting Started
- Go to your server dashboard and click on the Settings tab
- Scroll down to the Logs section
Grant Required Permissions
The bot needs the Manage Webhooks permission in your server. Without it, you won't be able to create log channels.
Creating a Log Channel
Step 1: Choose a Channel
Click the Channel dropdown and select a Discord text channel to receive the logs. Note:
- Only text channels can be used (not voice channels)
- Each channel can only be used for one log configuration
Step 2: Select Log Types
Choose which activities you want to track:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Set | Points set to a specific value |
| Add | Points added to a balance |
| Subtract | Points removed from a balance |
| Tax | Taxes applied |
| Give | Users giving points to each other |
| Take | Points taken from users |
| Purchase | Items purchased from the shop |
| Refund | Purchases refunded |
| Gift | Items gifted to users |
By default, all log types are selected.
Step 3: Add the Log Channel
Click Add Log Channel. The bot will create a webhook in your selected channel and logs will start appearing immediately.
Managing Existing Logs
All configured log channels are shown at the top of the Logs section, displaying the channel name, tracked log types, and creation date.
To remove a log channel, click the red trash icon next to it. The webhook will be removed automatically.
Tips
- Keep logs organized - consider creating a dedicated
#points-logschannel - Filter what matters - don't track everything if you only care about purchases
- Multiple channels - set up different channels for different log types (e.g. one for purchases, another for transfers)
Troubleshooting
"Bot requires 'Manage Webhooks' permission"
- Go to Discord Server Settings → Roles
- Find the Points bot role
- Enable the Manage Webhooks permission
- Try adding the log channel again
Logs not appearing
- Check that the log channel still exists
- Verify the bot has permission to send messages in that channel
- Try deleting and recreating the log configuration
