Our Welcomer Plugin is completely controlled from our [BotPanel ](https://botpanel.xyz/dashboard/Switchblade)page! Head there then to "Server Settings" to find the welcomer section.

## ⁉️ Arguments

`{@member}` - The member ping, clickable to view profile.\
`{member}` - Just the user's username, not clickable.

## 📚 Guides

Below is a few guides relating to this plugin.

### 🥤 Set up Welcomer

To start the setup of Speedboat Welcomer head over to our [BotPanel ](https://botpanel.xyz/dashboard/Switchblade/)and navigate to the "**Server Settings**" section which has the Welcomer section inside.

Next set the **Welcome Channel**, this is the channel where welcomer messages will be sent. Make sure it is a public channel so all your server members can see when new faces show up! In this example I have set the Welcome Channel to <kbd>#welcome</kbd> in my server.

Next we will set a **Welcome Role**, this is the role that each and every new member is assigned when joining, usually you would set a Member role or something but we don't have that in the Speedboat server yet so we will set the "Other Bot Developer" role just for now. Make sure to **save each setting** as we go along.

Now we move over to the fun stuff, let's set a message for when a user joins, as shown in the [welcomer](https://clawb1t.gitbook.io/speedboat/plugins/welcomer "mention") plugin page there are different arguments you can use for different thing, we are going to use the `{@member}` one so it pings the users profile, meaning you can click on it and find out more about the user in Discord.

Now we are ready to enable the **Welcomer Toggle**, this means that Welcomer Messages will start being sent, this will only work once you have completed all but the role section of the other steps.
