My Bot Personalizer change isn't applied

Bot Personalizer settings saved but the bot still looks default.

You saved a name, avatar, or banner on the Bot Personalizer page, but the bot in your Discord server still looks default. Work through this checklist.

1. Are you on premium?

The Bot Personalizer is a Premium feature. On a free server you can set it, but it only applies once the server has premium.

If you cancelled or premium lapsed, the Personalizer page locks again and the bot reverts to its normal profile in Discord. Subscribe again to bring it back.

2. Is your change still being reviewed?

Each change is reviewed against the content guidelines before it applies. While a change is pending, the dashboard shows yellow chips:

• "Avatar awaiting verification."

• "Banner awaiting verification."

Typical review time: a few minutes. Wait.

3. Was your submission denied?

If denied, you'll see red chips:

• "Avatar was not approved. Please upload a different image."

The bot won't apply denied content. Upload different content that meets the content guidelines.

4. Does the bot have Change Nickname permission?

The bot needs Change Nickname to set its display name. Without it, the dashboard shows:

Bot Missing Permissions

The bot is missing the following Discord permission(s) in this server and cannot update its profile: Change Nickname. Grant the permission to the bot's role (or @everyone), then return here to save your changes.

Fix in Server Settings → Roles: ensure Ticket King's role has Change Nickname.

After granting, click Re-apply to Discord on the Personalizer page.

5. Has the bot been re-added to your server?

If the bot was kicked and re-added, the personalizer doesn't auto-apply to the new bot member. Click Re-apply to Discord to push it.

6. Are you hitting the change limit?

You can make up to 5 changes per 12 hours per server. If you have made 5 changes recently, saving is blocked and the button shows:

Rate Limited

Wait for the window to reset. The dashboard shows when.

7. Is your server banned from the Personalizer?

After repeated content-guideline violations a server can be banned from this feature:

Bot Personalizer Banned

This server has been banned from using the Bot Personalizer feature.

Appeal via the support Discord.

8. Mobile shows the old avatar

Discord's mobile apps hold on to avatars for a while. Force-quit the Discord app and reopen it, and the new avatar appears.

9. Old messages show the old avatar

Messages the bot posted before your change still show the old name and avatar. Only new messages use the updated profile.

The Re-apply to Discord button

This button is on the Personalizer page. Use it when:

• The bot was added to your server again.

• The bot's appearance was changed by hand.

• You think the latest approved profile is not applied.

It counts toward the limit of 5 changes per 12 hours.
