#Frequently Asked Questions

###Question 1: How do I get Nadeko to join my server?

Answer: Simply send Nadeko a Direct Message with -h and follow the link. Only People with the Manage Server permission can add the bot to the server

###Question 2: I want to change permissions, but it isn't working!

Answer: You must have the ;permrole (by default this is the "Nadeko" role, for more details on permissions check here. If you have a role called Nadeko but can't assign it, just create a new Role and assign that instead.)

###Question 3: I want to disable NSFW on my server.

Answer: To disable the NSFW Module for your server type, ;sm NSFW disable. If this does not work refer to Question 2.

###Question 4: How do I get NadekoFlowers/Currency?

Answer: You can get NadekoFlowers by picking them up after they have been generated with >gc, which you can then either plant (give away to a channel so that someone can pick it), or gamble with for potentinal profit with $betflip, $betroll and $jr

###Question 5: I have an issue/bug/suggestion, where do I put it so it gets noticed?

Answer: First, check issues, then check the #suggestions channel in the Nadeko help server.

If your problem or suggestion is not there, feel free to request/notify us about it either in the Issues section of GitHub for issues or in the #suggestions channel on the Nadeko help server for suggestions.

###Question 6: How do I use this command?

Answer: You can see the description and usage of certain commands by using -h command i.e -h ;sm.

The whole list of commands can be found here

###Question 7: Music isn't working?

Answer: Music is disabled on public Nadeko due to large hosting costs, it will be re-enabled later in the future for donators.

If you would like music in the meantime, you must host Nadeko yourself. Be sure you have FFMPEG installed correctly, and have followed the guide carefully.

###Question 8: My music is still not working/very laggy?

Answer: Try changing your discord [location][1], if this doesn't work be sure you have enabled the correct permissions for Nadeko and rebooted since installing FFMPEG. [1]: https://support.discordapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/216661717-How-do-I-change-my-Voice-Server-Region-

###Question 10: The .greet and .bye commands doesn't work, but everything else is (From @Kong)

Answer: Set a greeting message by using .greetmsg YourMessageHere and a bye-message by using .byemsg YourMessageHere. Don't forget that .greet and .bye only apply to users joining a server, not coming online/offline.

###Question 12: I made an application, but I can't add that new bot to my server, how do I invite it to my server?

Answer: You need to use oauth link to add it to you server, just copy your CLIENT ID (that's in the same Developer page where you brought your token) and replace 12345678 in the link below: https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=12345678&scope=bot&permissions=66186303

Follow this Detailed Guide if you do not understand.

###Question 13: I'm building NadekoBot from source, but I get hundreds of (namespace) errors without changing anything!?

Answer: Using Visual Studio, you can solve these errors by going to Tools -> NuGet Package Manager -> Manage NuGet Packages for Solution. Go to the Installed tab, select the Packages that were missing (usually Newtonsoft.json and RestSharp) and install them for all projects

###Question 14: My bot has all permissions but it's still saying, "Failed to add roles. Bot has insufficient permissions.". How do I fix this?

Answer: Discord has added a few new features and roles now follow hierarchy. This means you need to place your bot's role above every-other role your server has. Here's a link to Discords role management 101.

###Question 15: I've broken permissions and am stuck, can I reset permissions?

Answer: Yes, there is a way, in one easy command! Just run .resetperms

Please Note: The bot can only set/add all roles below its own highest role. It can not assign it's "highest role" to anyone else.
