Presidents

The Presidents module manages the server president system: appointing, removing, issuing decrees, and history. The president is a special role — one active per server — with the ability to issue announcements (decrees) in various categories.

Enabling the Module

1. Dashboard → Your server → toggle Presidents
2. Click Edit and configure the president role, announcement channels
3. Save changes

Configuration

Option	Type	Default	Description
role_id	string / null	null	Discord president role ID (assigned automatically)
announcement_channel_id	string / null	null	Presidential announcements channel
decree_channels	object	{}	Channels per decree type
appoint_roles	list	[]	Roles that can appoint the president
use_moderation_roles	boolean	false	Use moderation roles instead of appoint_roles

  "general": "channel_id_or_null",
  "economic": "channel_id_or_null",

}

If a channel for a given type is not set, the decree goes to announcement_channel_id.

Tips

Best practices

• Create a dedicated "President" role with a distinctive color
• Configure announcement_channel_id to a channel visible to everyone
• Separate decree_channels allow organizing decrees thematically
• Use decrees for official game-related announcements

info

Only one active president can exist per server. Appointing a new one automatically ends the previous one's term.
