🚀 Getting Started with Elysium Bot

Welcome to Elysium! This guide will walk you through adding the bot to your server, setting up basic features, and getting comfortable with your first few commands.

✨ What You’ll Need

Before using Elysium, make sure you have:

  • A Discord server (where you have Manage Server permissions)

  • A love for books, growth, or journaling (optional but highly encouraged 🥰)

➕ Invite Elysium to Your Server

Use the button at the top of the page to invite Elysium

Make sure to grant the bot the necessary permissions during the invite flow. It needs:

  • Send Messages

  • Embed Links

  • Use Slash Commands

  • Manage Messages (for reminders and cleanups)

  • Add Reactions (for interactive features)

🛠️ Initial Setup Tips

After inviting Elysium, here are a few helpful things to do right away:

🪞 Set Up Your Profile

Start by introducing yourself to the bot with:

/profile set <bio> <intention> <affirmation> <current read> <reading goal> <favorite genre> <preferred format> <favorite author>

Or use /profile edit to add just a few details at a time!

📚 Add a Book to Your Inventory

If you’re tracking books globally with others:

/inventory addbook <book> <author> <goodreads link>

🌱 Create a Habit

Build a daily or weekly habit tracker:

/habit add

This will open a button-based modal to get you started.

📓 Start a Journal Entry

Get thoughts out of your head and into a safe space:

/journal add <entry>

View them any time with /journal list. It will send to your DMs so make sure the bot can message you.

😄 Log Your Mood

Check in with how you’re feeling using:

/mood log

Choose a mood, tag an activity, and optionally add a note!

📌 Optional: Set a Channel

Want sprint announcements or giftlist pings in a specific place?

Use:

/channel set sprints <channel>
/channel set gifts <channel>

⏰ Set Up Reminders

Elysium can send personal reminders for reading, moods, habits, or anything else!

Try:

/reminders set <hour> <minute> [text]

You can also set /reminders timezone to make sure it's correct for your location.

🧠 Helpful Tips

  • Use /help to get an embed with an overview of the bot’s features.

  • Don’t include < > or [ ] in your commands — just input the values!

  • All features work in DMs unless noted otherwise (some require server channel setup).

  • Most commands give you modals, dropdowns, or buttons to guide you.

💬 Still Stuck?

No worries! Head over to the Troubleshooting section, or use:

/report <your message>

to send feedback or ask for help directly.
