🧩 Step 1 — Invite the Bot
Invite the official Cross-Verification Bot to your Discord server: Invite the bot
💡 Tip: You’ll need Administrator permissions to complete this process.
🔐 Step 2 — Configure Bot Permissions
- Ensure the bot has the necessary permissions for your use case.
⚠️ If you disable permissions the bot needs, it will not work. As with any Discord bot, Nox Vitae recommends only inviting bots you fully trust.
- Once the bot has joined, make sure its role has permission to post within your designated channel.
🪶 We recommend raising the bot's role as high as possible. Some channel permission overrides can prevent roles from being applied to certain users — best practice is to create a channel where the only override is that @everyone cannot send messages or add reactions. In the future, additional features may require greater permission use.
⚙️ Step 3 — Run the Setup Command
Once the bot is active, run /cross_verification setup to customize your usage of the bot.
Cross-Verification Setup — Step 1 of 2
Configure verification roles and settings for your server.
- 📍 Select Verification Panel Channel — Choose where users will see the verification panel.
- 🎭 Configure Role Types — Choose whether to create new roles or use existing ones for each verification tier.
- Linked Role — Assign a role to users who have linked their VRChat account to their Discord account, regardless of verification status.
- Verified Role — Assign a role to users who have completed the age verification process, regardless of whether they are +18 or not.
- +18 Verified Role — Assign a role to users who have completed the age verification process and are verified to be over 18 years old.
Cross-Verification Setup — Step 2 of 2
Configure additional verification settings for your server.
- ⚙️ Auto-Verification — Automatically assign roles to members who are already verified when they join.
⚠️ Nox Vitae does not recommend enabling this unless you're familiar with roles/role conflicts on Discord — it could potentially allow people past other server security measures, such as bypassing rules pages.
- 🔄 Role Swap — Remove a specific role (e.g., guest, unverified) from a user when they verify, and replace it with a designated role.
- 👤 Parented Role — Optionally give an existing role to users after reaching a specific verification level (Linked, Verified, +18 Verified).
- ⏱️ Verification Timeout — Automatically timeout or kick users who don't verify within a time limit. Great for filtering out bots and scammers.
- Timeout Duration — How long users have to obtain the required role. If you'd like a custom duration, set it after setup with the
/timeouts timecommand. - Required Role — If the user does not yet have this role when the time ends, they will be kicked from the server.
- Timeout Duration — How long users have to obtain the required role. If you'd like a custom duration, set it after setup with the
Click Finish Setup once you've configured both pages.
🧭 Step 4 — Create the Verification Panel
Run: /create_verification_panel
This creates the interactive verification panel for your users. For best results:
- Place it in a dedicated channel (e.g.,
#verify-here). - Restrict the channel so @everyone cannot send messages or react. The bot manages all interactions automatically.
🎉 Step 5 — All Done!
Your verification panel is now live! Users can link their VRChat and Discord accounts seamlessly.
💫 You’re done — your community verification is automated, safe, and running smoothly!
