Introduction
What Epix is, how it is put together, and where to go next.
Epix is a Discord bot and a dashboard for configuring it. The bot handles moderation, protection, tickets, logging, levelling, giveaways and generated images; the dashboard is where you decide how each of those behaves in your server.
These pages document the behaviour, not the buttons. Where a setting has a consequence that is not obvious from its label — a rate limit, an ordering rule, a permission that has to exist for it to work — that is what is written down here.
How the pieces fit
| Piece | Where it lives | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| The bot | In your server | Answers commands and reacts to events. |
| The dashboard | dashboard.epixbot.me | Reads and writes your server's configuration. |
| This site | epixbot.me | Documentation, guides and everything public. |
| Status | status.epixbot.me | Component health, uptime and incident reports. |
Configuration is stored per server and read by the bot at the moment it needs it, so a change on the dashboard takes effect on the next command — there is nothing to restart and no cache to clear.
Where to go next
- New server: start with Quickstart, then Permissions.
- Something is not working: check Permissions first — it is the cause more often than anything else.
- Setting up a specific module: the guides cover levelling, tickets, protection and logging.
