DexBotX moderation slash commands
DexBotX provides five moderation commands. The permission shown in Discord controls who can invoke each command; the bot must also have the matching permission. Actions against server members are checked against Discord role hierarchy.
| Command | What it does | Who can use it | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| /kick | Removes a member from the server. They can join again with a valid invite. | Members with Kick Members; DexBotX also needs Kick Members. | /kick member:@member reason:Repeated spam |
| /ban | Bans a user from the server. You can choose whether to delete none, one day, or seven days of their messages. | Members with Ban Members; DexBotX also needs Ban Members. | /ban user:@member delete_messages:1 day reason:Repeated abuse |
| /unban | Removes a ban using the user’s Discord ID. | Members with Ban Members; DexBotX also needs Ban Members. | /unban user_id:<Discord user ID> reason:Appeal accepted |
| /timeout | Prevents a member from interacting for a selected duration: 60 seconds, 5 or 10 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day, or 1 week. | Members with Moderate Members; DexBotX also needs Moderate Members. | /timeout member:@member duration:10 minutes reason:Repeated disruption |
| /untimeout | Removes an active timeout from a member. | Members with Moderate Members; DexBotX also needs Moderate Members. | /untimeout member:@member |
Using slash-command examples
Type the command in a server text channel and select the matching option in Discord’s slash-command menu. Replace @member with the member picker and <Discord user ID> with the target user’s numeric ID. The /ban command requires a message-deletion choice, and /timeout requires a duration. Optional reasons can be up to 400 characters.
For actions against server members, the target’s highest role must be below both the moderator’s and DexBotX’s highest roles. DexBotX cannot moderate the server owner. See all DexBotX features and security details or the FAQ.
Configure the bot
Welcome and goodbye messages are configured from the DexBotX dashboard, not with slash commands. Sign in with Discord, choose a server you can manage, then select the message settings you want to update. Read the welcome and goodbye guide for more detail.
