Self-Roles attaches to an existing Embed Message that has already been sent to a channel. It does not create its own message.If you have no embeds, the create page tells you so and links you to build one. If you have embeds but none has been sent, the message picker will be empty even though embeds exist — send one first.
For emoji and button panels you choose a primary behaviour:
Mode
Effect
Toggle
Selecting gives the role, selecting again removes it
Give Only
Only ever adds — members cannot remove it themselves
Take Only
Only ever removes
Then, optionally, one of two exclusivity modes:
Mode
Effect
Auto-Replace
Taking one role removes every other role on the panel
Strict Single
Refuses the selection if the member already holds another role from the panel
Auto-Replace and Strict Single replace your primary choice rather than adding to it. Selecting either one discards the Toggle / Give Only / Take Only setting.When you reopen the panel later it will show Toggle as the primary regardless of what you originally picked. That is a display artefact — the exclusivity mode is what is actually stored and applied.
Dropdown panels behave differently from every other panel type, and the difference can remove roles a member already holds.They have no behaviour selector. They are always multi-select — a member can pick every role on the panel in one submission — and the submission is applied as a sync, not a toggle: every panel role the member picked is added, and every panel role they did not pick is removed.So a member who holds three roles from a panel and opens the menu to add a fourth will lose the other three unless they re-pick them as well. Submitting the menu with nothing selected strips all of the panel’s roles.If your roles are meant to accumulate independently, use a button or emoji panel on Toggle instead.
Auto-Replace suits mutually exclusive choices like region or skill level — members can change their mind and always end up with exactly one.
A per-role member cap — the stored limit on how many people may hold each role is never read by the bot, so every role on a panel is effectively uncapped
A single-select dropdown mode — the stored flag exists and defaults to off, but the bot never reads it either, so dropdowns are multi-select in every case
A panel’s name is taken from the embed message it is attached to. Renaming the embed renames the panel the next time you save it.
Switching a panel’s type rebuilds its Discord message — the old reactions or buttons are removed before the new ones appear. Members briefly see a panel with no controls.If the underlying Discord message has been deleted, the update fails quietly and the panel stays listed. Delete it and rebuild against a new message.
Every role on a panel must sit below the Vetox role, or it cannot be assigned. See Permissions.
