Getting Started
The first step is to make sure that Vortex is actually on your server! To add a bot to your server, you must have the Manage Server permission on the server. If you do, you can click this link to add Vortex to your server: Vortex Bot Invite
If your server isn't listed, make sure you are correctly logged in by visiting https://discordapp.com/login
To operate correctly, Vortex needs the permissions to be able to complete necessary tasks. The easiest way to achieve this is to give the 'Vortex' role the Administrator permission and drag it to the top (or near the top) of the role list.
The next step is configuring vortex for your server! You can type >>help settings to see a full list of settings commands, >>help automod to see a full list of automod commands, or check out the Full Command Reference
The Muted role is a role that (usually) can be applied to a user to prevent them from sending messages, adding reactions, speaking, and connecting to voice channels. To create a Muted role with this default functionality, run >>setup muted. You can also customize the permissions after creation to your liking (such as also causing it to remove Read Messages perms in some channels, or allowing sending messages in a "time-out" channel).
Vortex has various logs to keep track of different kinds of server activity. All commands for logs are found in the Settings commands, available via >>help settings or on the Full Command Reference. If your server is utilizing the strike system, it is recommended to enable (at minimum) the ModLog.
The Moderator Role is a role that allows a user with said role to use all Moderation commands. The full list of Moderation commands is available via >>help mod as well as on the Full Command Reference. To set a role to be the Moderator role, use >>modrole <rolename> (for example, if your moderator role is called "Staff", you'd run >>modrole Staff). To disable the Moderator role, run >>modrole none.
For full information about the AutoMod and its features, check out the Auto-Moderation page. You can set the default automod settings using >>setup automod.
