Tour the dashboard sidebar

Every section of the dashboard sidebar, what it controls, and who can see it.

The dashboard sidebar lists every section of the bot you can configure for a single server. This page walks through what each one does so you know where to go for what.

Who can see what

Not every section appears for every dashboard user. The sidebar is filtered by the dashboard permissions assigned to your roles in this server.

The server owner and anyone with Administrator or Manage Server see everything by default. Other roles see only what they have been granted access to. If something is missing from your sidebar, ask your server's owner to grant your role the relevant permission area on the Permissions page.

The permission areas:
