Verification
Gate new members behind a button click, math question, captcha, or Discord OAuth login before they can chat.
On this page
Overview
Verification requires new members to complete a challenge before being granted your server's normal member role, which helps filter out raid bots and low-effort alt accounts.
Four methods are available: a simple button click, a math question, a secure captcha link, or a full Discord OAuth login. Each has its own difficulty and behavior settings.
Unverified members can be automatically kicked after a timeout or after too many failed attempts, and the Welcome message can be delayed to only send once verification actually succeeds.
Setup
- 1
Enable Verification
Toggle the module on from Overview or the Verification page.
- 2
Choose a verification method
Pick button click, math question, captcha, or Discord OAuth based on how much friction your server needs against raids.
- 3
Set the unverified and verified roles
Choose the role new members get before completing verification and the role they get afterward.
- 4
Configure the verification channel and log
Pick where the verification prompt is posted and where verification attempts (pass/fail/kick) are logged.
- 5
Set auto-kick behavior
Configure how long an unverified member has before being auto-kicked, and/or a max number of failed attempts before they're removed.
- 6
Tune method-specific settings
Adjust math difficulty and max attempts, captcha provider and link expiry, or OAuth minimum account age and suspicious-account auto-kick.
