Quick Start Guide
1. Invite Mortem
Add the bot to your server with Administrator permissions to ensure all security and management tools function correctly.
2. Setup Inside Discord
The message sent by Mortem in your server includes an "Automatic Setup" button. Use this to select channels and roles directly through Discord's native UI.
3. Run the Setup Command
Use ,setup to automatically create necessary roles (imute, rmute, jailed) and the Mortem moderation channels.
Security & Anti-Nuke
Mortem is built to keep your community safe from malicious attacks and rogue administrators. The Anti-Nuke system detects destructive actions and automatically reverts the damage.
Channel & Category Restores
If a rogue admin deletes channels or categories, Mortem will instantly restore them with their original permissions and layout.
Anti-Webhook & Anti-Bot
Prevents unauthorized users from creating webhooks or adding malicious bots to your server.
Anti Channel Delete / Create
Monitors for mass channel creation or deletion and immediately punishes the user responsible.
Raid Protection
Automatically detects abnormal join patterns. It can temporarily lock the server, require new users to verify, or ban accounts identified as part of a raid.
Management Tools
Keep your community organized and maintain control over your moderation team with these built-in tools:
Jail System
Set up dedicated jail roles, mute roles, and powerful moderation logs to maintain control over your community.
Virtual Permissions
Grant staff access to specific Mortem commands without actually giving them the corresponding real permissions in Discord.
Moderation Logs
Track every action taken by your staff and Mortem itself. Keep a transparent record of bans, kicks, mutes, and warns.
