Troubleshooting
Fixes for the problems servers run into most. Permissions, ER:LC commands, missing commands and roles that won't change.
First, check the status page: if Jellyn or ER:LC is having a bad day, it says so there.
Jellyn can't post in a channel
On the Discord page, the Channels table shows whether Jellyn can post in each channel. If it can't:
- Open the channel's settings in Discord, then Permissions.
- Give Jellyn's role (or Jellyn itself) View Channel, Send Messages, Embed Links and Attach Files.
- Back on the Discord page, the table checks again.
For channels Jellyn makes or locks itself (like session channel locks), it also needs Manage Roles.
ER:LC commands fail with error 4000
You are not authorized to perform this action on this server means ER:LC hasn't been told Jellyn may run commands there.
- On the ER:LC page, press Authorize Jellyn on ER:LC.
- The private server's owner signs in with Roblox on ER:LC's page and approves Jellyn.
- Press Check now. When ER:LC takes the test message, it's fixed.
Reading the server (players, logs) works without this; only commands need it. See Connect ER:LC.
The ER:LC page says the key was rejected
Your private server's API key was changed or revoked in ER:LC. Copy the new key from ER:LC and link the server again with Link a server.
A command doesn't show in Discord
- Check Jellyn is still in your server, with the Use Application Commands permission for the members.
- Discord can take a minute to show commands after Jellyn joins. Reload Discord with Ctrl R.
- With Jellyn+, someone may have turned the command off on the Discord page. It says so when run.
A command says the server isn't set up
Someone with Manage Server needs to run /setup first. See the Quickstart.
Roles or nicknames don't change
Shift roles, leave roles, the verified role and nickname prefixes all need:
- Manage Roles and Manage Nicknames for Jellyn,
- Jellyn's own role above the roles it gives, in Server Settings → Roles.
Discord never lets a bot change the server owner's nickname, so the owner keeps theirs.
Someone can't see a page
What someone can open comes from their roles: the staff and management Discord roles from /setup, and their Jellyn roles. Give them a Jellyn role with the permission for that page. Pages of a plan the server doesn't have don't show at all.
Shifts don't start when staff join the game
- Shifts for the whole team has to be on, on Game features, or the person turns it on for themselves in their account settings.
- They need a verified Roblox account, and to be on one of the teams you picked, if you picked any.
- Your ER:LC server has to be linked, and someone has to be in it for Jellyn to see them.
A feature says it needs Jellyn+
That feature is part of Jellyn+. Settings you save for it are kept, and work once the server has the plan.
