Step 1 - Setting a Channel

You'll need to tell Zira what channel you want to use for the message in the next step.

You can do this using /channel <Channel> as seen below.

Setting a Channel

info

See the Channel page for more details on the command.

Step 2 - Setting a Message

Now it's time to tell Zira what message you want to use.

You have a couple options:

  1. Use a message that you've sent
  2. Get Zira to create a message
  3. Get Zira to create an embed

Option 1 - User-created message

If you want to use a message that you have created, you can do so by using /message set <Message ID>. You can only set a message if it is in the channel you set in step 1.

See the Discord help page Where can I find my User/Server/Message ID? for instructions on how to find a message ID.

Here is the message we are going to use.

User Message

Now time to set the message!

info

See the Message page for more details on the command.

Option 2 - Zira-created plain message

You can have Zira send a message to use by using /message send <Your Message Here>.

Message Create

The message will be sent to the channel you set in step 1.

info

See the Message page for more details on the command.

Option 3 - Zira-created embedded message

You can have Zira create an embed by using /embed builder and following the instructions by customising the embed preview.

The embed will be sent to the channel you set in step 1.

Embed Builder

info

See the Embed page for more details on the command.

Step 3 - Adding reaction roles

Now you can add some reaction roles to the message you set in step 2!

You have a couple reaction role options:

They all behave differently, so to find out which one you want, go to their appropriate pages.

Here we are going to use a toggled role, but the command syntax is the same for the other types.

Using Toggle Command

Setup Finished

That's it! You have set up Zira for your server.

You can add more roles to the message we created in this guide if you want, or you can create more messages and add roles onto those!
