Verification

With the verify system, yurna posts a message with a button in a channel of your choice. Anyone who clicks it receives the verified role. This lets you unlock the rest of your server only after a quick confirmation and slows down automated accounts.

You'll find the settings under Dashboard → Community → Verification (/dashboard/<server>/verify).

Setting it up#

1. In Discord, create a role that members should receive after confirming (e.g. "Verified"). Give this role access to your regular channels.
2. In the dashboard, open Community → Verification.
3. Turn on Module active at the top right.
4. Under Channel & roles, choose the Notification channel – that's where the verify message appears – and the Verified role.
5. Optional: choose an Unverified role that is removed when someone verifies.
6. Under Verify message, design the title, text, button and colour. The Embed preview shows you the result.
7. Click Save in the bar at the bottom.

After saving, yurna posts the verify message in the chosen channel within about a minute. If you change something later, the same message is updated. If you turn the module off, yurna removes the message again.

Settings#

Channel & roles#

• Notification channel – the text channel for the verify message (required).
• Verified role – yurna gives this role after the click (required).
• Unverified role – optional. If the member has this role, yurna removes it on verification. yurna does not hand it out on join, though – use autorole under Join & rules for that.

The dashboard rejects roles with admin permissions (e.g. Administrator) and roles managed by an integration when you save.

Verify message#

• Embed title – up to 250 characters.
• Embed description – up to 2048 characters, Discord markdown supported.
• Button label – 1 to 80 characters.
• Embed color – via the colour picker or as a HEX value (e.g. #5865F2).

Options#

• Force channel leave – after verification, yurna hides the verify channel for that member, which keeps the channel tidy. On by default.
• Captcha required – before the role is given, a window opens with a six-character code the member has to type in. The code is valid for five minutes.

Required permissions#

• View Channel, Send Messages and Embed Links in the notification channel – otherwise yurna can't post the message.
• Manage Roles, and yurna's role must be above the verified and unverified roles in the role list.
• For Force channel leave, yurna must be allowed to edit the verify channel's permissions.

Tips#

• Deny @everyone access to every channel except the verify channel and unlock channels through the verified role. That way, new members only see the verify message at first.
• Use verification or rule acceptance under Join & rules. Running both with the same role doubles the work – the dashboard will point this out.
• Don't also hand out the verified role via autorole, or verification is bypassed.

Common problems#

• The message doesn't appear. Check the channel permissions and make sure both the channel and the verified role are set. Without both, yurna posts nothing.
• "I couldn't give you the verification role". Usually yurna is missing Manage Roles or its role sits too low. Drag it above the verified role in your server settings.
• "Your captcha has expired". Just click the button again to get a new code.
