# Discord Onboarding & MVC Support Infrastructure Setup
|
||||
|
||||
**Document ID:** FFG-DISCORD-002
|
||||
**Created:** April 6, 2026
|
||||
**Created By:** Chronicler #64
|
||||
**For:** Holly (The Catalyst) — Discord/LuckPerms Manager
|
||||
**Status:** Ready to Implement
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 📋 OVERVIEW
|
||||
|
||||
This guide covers two major Discord infrastructure updates:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Two-Stage Onboarding System** — Wanderers (minimal) → Subscribers (full role selection)
|
||||
2. **ModpackChecker Support Ecosystem** — Tickets, chat, voice, and forum channels
|
||||
|
||||
**Philosophy:** Wanderers should feel welcomed home while experiencing FOMO. Subscribers get full customization. MVC owners get comprehensive support options.
|
||||

||||
# PART 1: TWO-STAGE ONBOARDING SYSTEM
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 THE STRATEGY
|
||||
|
||||
**Stage 1: Wanderer Onboarding (Discord Native)**
|
||||
- New members join → See welcome message
|
||||
- **Forced:** Must accept rules before seeing channels
|
||||
- Result: `Wanderer` role → See ALL channels (read-only for most)
|
||||
- Goal: "Stop wandering. You found home. Feel the FOMO."
|
||||
|
||||
**Stage 2: Subscriber Onboarding (Carl-bot + Arbiter)**
|
||||
- User subscribes → Arbiter assigns tier role
|
||||
- Carl-bot DMs welcome message
|
||||
- Message posted in #choose-your-roles with @mention
|
||||
- User customizes: Fire/Frost path, server selections, preferences
|
||||
- Goal: "You're family now. Make this place yours."
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 🛠️ STAGE 1: DISCORD NATIVE ONBOARDING
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 1: Enable Discord Onboarding**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Go to **Server Settings → Onboarding**
|
||||
2. Click **"Enable Onboarding"**
|
||||
3. You'll see the onboarding editor
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 2: Configure Welcome Screen**
|
||||
|
||||
**Screen 1: Welcome Message**
|
||||
|
||||
**Title:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
🔥❄️ Welcome to Firefrost Gaming!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Description:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
We're a community of modded Minecraft players who believe in passion, precision, and finding your tribe.
|
||||
|
||||
Whether you're Fire (bold, passionate, unfiltered) or Frost (strategic, calculated, precise), there's a place for you here.
|
||||
|
||||
Before you explore, please review our community guidelines.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Background Image:** (Optional) Firefrost Gaming banner or Fire/Frost gradient
|
||||
|
||||
**Button Text:** `Continue`
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 3: Configure Rules Acceptance (REQUIRED)**
|
||||
|
||||
**Screen 2: Community Rules**
|
||||
|
||||
1. In onboarding editor, click **"Add Default Channel"**
|
||||
2. Select **#rules** from dropdown
|
||||
3. Toggle **ON:** "Require members to accept rules"
|
||||
4. **Accept Button Text:** `I Accept the Rules`
|
||||
|
||||
**What this does:**
|
||||
- Shows #rules channel content in onboarding flow
|
||||
- User **cannot proceed** without clicking "I Accept the Rules"
|
||||
- Once accepted, they receive `Wanderer` role
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 4: Configure Default Channels (Optional)**
|
||||
|
||||
**Screen 3: Get Started**
|
||||
|
||||
Discord will ask if you want to show "recommended channels" in onboarding.
|
||||
|
||||
**Our Answer:** Skip this screen.
|
||||
|
||||
**Why:** We want Wanderers to see ALL channels (FOMO strategy), not a curated list. They'll discover channels organically.
|
||||
|
||||
**How to skip:**
|
||||
- In onboarding editor, don't add any "Default Channels" beyond #rules
|
||||
- Just have: Welcome Screen → Rules Acceptance → Finish
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 5: Configure Completion Action**
|
||||
|
||||
**What happens when they click "Finish":**
|
||||
|
||||
1. In onboarding editor, go to **"Completion Settings"**
|
||||
2. **Role to assign:** `@Wanderer`
|
||||
3. **Channel to send them to:** `#welcome` or `#general`
|
||||
|
||||
**Completion Message (in #welcome or #general):**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Welcome to Firefrost Gaming, [username]! 🔥❄️
|
||||
|
||||
You've joined as a **Wanderer** — explore our community, chat in #general, and see what we're all about.

||||

||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 6: Set Wanderer Permissions**
|
||||
|
||||
**In Server Settings → Roles → @Wanderer:**
|
||||
|
||||
**Channel Access:**
|
||||
- ✅ See ALL channels (FOMO!)
|
||||
- ✅ Can post in: #rules, #general, #open-a-ticket
|
||||
- ❌ Cannot post in: Subscriber-only channels, Fire/Frost-specific channels, server channels
|
||||
|
||||
**Specific Permissions:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
View Channels: ✅ YES (for all channels)
|
||||
Send Messages: ✅ YES (only in #general, #rules, #open-a-ticket)
|
||||
Read Message History: ✅ YES
|
||||
Add Reactions: ✅ YES
|
||||
Use External Emojis: ✅ YES
|
||||
Attach Files: ✅ YES (in allowed channels)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**How to set "can post in some channels but not others":**
|
||||
- Base `@Wanderer` role: `Send Messages = ❌ NO` (deny by default)
|
||||
- Per-channel overrides: Go to each channel → Permissions → @Wanderer → `Send Messages = ✅ YES`
|
||||
- #general: ✅ Allow
|
||||
- #rules: ✅ Allow
|
||||
- #open-a-ticket: ✅ Allow
|
||||
- All other channels: ⚫ Neutral (inherits deny from role)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 7: Test Wanderer Onboarding**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create a test Discord account (or use alt account)
|
||||
2. Join server with invite link
|
||||
3. Verify flow:
|
||||
- ✅ See welcome message
|
||||
- ✅ See #rules content
|
||||
- ✅ Cannot skip without clicking "I Accept the Rules"
|
||||
- ✅ Assigned `@Wanderer` role after acceptance
|
||||
- ✅ Can see ALL channels
|
||||
- ✅ Can post in #general, #rules, #open-a-ticket
|
||||
- ✅ Cannot post in subscriber channels
|
||||
4. If anything fails, review permissions and onboarding settings
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 🎨 STAGE 2: SUBSCRIBER ONBOARDING
|
||||
|
||||
### **Overview**
|
||||
|
||||
When Arbiter assigns a subscriber role (Awakened, Elemental, Knight, Master, Legend, Sovereign), we want **BOTH**:
|
||||
1. Carl-bot DMs the new subscriber
|
||||
2. Welcome message posted in #choose-your-roles with @mention
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal:** Make them feel seen, welcomed, and excited to customize their experience.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 1: Create #choose-your-roles Channel**
|
||||
|
||||
**In Discord → Server Settings → Channels:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create new text channel: **#choose-your-roles**
|
||||
2. **Category:** Support (or create "Subscriber Lounge" category)
|
||||
3. **Channel Description:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
🔥❄️ Customize Your Firefrost Experience
|
||||
|
||||
Choose your path, select your servers, and make this community yours.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Permissions:**
|
||||
- `@everyone`: ❌ Cannot see
|
||||
- `@Wanderer`: ❌ Cannot see
|
||||
- `@Awakened` (and all higher tiers): ✅ Can see and post
|
||||
- `@Staff`: ✅ Full access
|
||||
|
||||
**How to set:**
|
||||
- Channel Settings → Permissions
|
||||
- Remove `@everyone` / `@Wanderer` view access
|
||||
- Add each subscriber role with View Channel + Send Messages
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 2: Set Up Carl-bot Reaction Roles in #choose-your-roles**
|
||||
|
||||
**Pin a message at the top:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
🔥❄️ **Welcome to the Family!** 🔥❄️
|
||||
|
||||
You're no longer a Wanderer — you're home.
|
||||
|
||||
Use the reaction roles below to customize your experience:
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Reaction Role Setup (via Carl-bot dashboard or commands):**
|
||||
|
||||
#### **Fire or Frost Path**
|
||||
```
|
||||
!rr create
|
||||
|
||||
**Choose Your Path:**
|
||||
🔥 Fire — Bold, Passionate, Unfiltered
|
||||
❄️ Frost — Strategic, Calculated, Precise
|
||||
|
||||
React below to choose your identity.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Add reactions:
|
||||
- 🔥 → `@Fire` role
|
||||
- ❄️ → `@Frost` role
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
#### **Server Selection**
|
||||
```
|
||||
!rr create
|
||||
|
||||
**Which servers do you play on?**
|
||||
Select all that apply — you can change these anytime.
|
||||
|
||||
React to unlock server-specific channels:
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Add reactions (examples — adjust to your actual servers):
|
||||
- 🌍 → `@Overworld Players` role
|
||||
- 🔮 → `@Arcane Academy Players` role
|
||||
- 🏰 → `@Kingdom Builders` role
|
||||
- 🚀 → `@Modpack Testers` role
|
||||
|
||||
Each role unlocks the corresponding server channel(s).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
#### **Notification Preferences** (Optional)
|
||||
```
|
||||
!rr create
|
||||
|
||||
**Notification Preferences:**
|
||||
📢 Announcements — Server news and updates
|
||||
🎉 Events — Community events and giveaways
|
||||
📰 Patch Notes — Modpack updates and changes
|
||||
|
||||
React to opt IN to notifications:
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Add reactions:
|
||||
- 📢 → `@Announcement Pings` role
|
||||
- 🎉 → `@Event Pings` role
|
||||
- 📰 → `@Patch Notes Pings` role
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** These roles should be mentionable and used in respective channels for pings.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 3: Configure Carl-bot Welcome DM**
|
||||
|
||||
**In Carl-bot Dashboard → Welcomer:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Enable **"Send welcome message via DM"**
|
||||
2. **Trigger:** When user receives `@Awakened` role (or any subscriber tier)
|
||||
|
||||
**DM Message Template:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
🔥❄️ **Welcome to Firefrost Gaming, {user}!** 🔥❄️
|
||||
|
||||
You've unlocked full access as an **{role}** subscriber.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's what's new:
|
||||
✅ All channels unlocked
|
||||
✅ Full chat permissions
|
||||
✅ Server-specific channels (choose in #choose-your-roles)
|
||||
✅ Fire or Frost path selection
|
||||
✅ Priority support
|
||||
|
||||
**Next step:** Visit #choose-your-roles to customize your experience and choose your path!
|
||||
|
||||
Questions? Open a ticket in #open-a-ticket anytime.
|
||||
|
||||
— The Firefrost Team 💙🔥❄️
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Variables:**
|
||||
- `{user}` — Mentions the user
|
||||
- `{role}` — Shows their subscriber tier (Awakened, Elemental, etc.)
|
||||
|
||||
**How to set trigger:**
|
||||
- Carl-bot dashboard → Welcomer → "Trigger on role add"
|
||||
- Select all subscriber tier roles: Awakened, Elemental, Knight, Master, Legend, Sovereign
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 4: Configure Welcome Message in #choose-your-roles**
|
||||
|
||||
**Option A: Manual (Holly posts when someone subscribes)**
|
||||
|
||||
When you see a new subscriber in the server member list:
|
||||
1. Go to #choose-your-roles
|
||||
2. Post:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Welcome, @username! 🔥❄️
|
||||
|
||||
You're officially part of the Firefrost family. Choose your path and servers below to customize your experience.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have any questions, we're here to help!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Option B: Automated (via Carl-bot or custom webhook)**
|
||||
|
||||
If Arbiter can trigger a webhook when assigning roles, send to Carl-bot or Discord webhook:
|
||||
|
||||
**Webhook Payload:**
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"content": "Welcome, <@user_id>! 🔥❄️\n\nYou're officially part of the Firefrost family. Choose your path and servers below to customize your experience.\n\nIf you have any questions, we're here to help!"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Webhook URL:** #choose-your-roles webhook (create in Channel Settings → Integrations)
|
||||
|
||||
**Option C: Michael can add webhook call to Arbiter**
|
||||
|
||||
In Arbiter 3.5.0, after assigning Discord role via API, call Discord webhook:
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// After successful role assignment
|
||||
await fetch('https://discord.com/api/webhooks/[WEBHOOK_ID]/[WEBHOOK_TOKEN]', {
|
||||
method: 'POST',
|
||||
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
|
||||
body: JSON.stringify({
|
||||
content: `Welcome, <@${discordUserId}>! 🔥❄️\n\nYou're officially part of the Firefrost family. Choose your path and servers below to customize your experience.\n\nIf you have any questions, we're here to help!`
|
||||
})
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommended:** Start with Option A (manual) until subscriber volume requires automation.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 5: Test Subscriber Onboarding**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Have Michael manually assign a subscriber role to a test account
|
||||
2. Verify:
|
||||
- ✅ User receives Carl-bot DM
|
||||
- ✅ Welcome message appears in #choose-your-roles (if automated)
|
||||
- ✅ User can see #choose-your-roles channel
|
||||
- ✅ User can react to role selection messages
|
||||
- ✅ Roles are assigned correctly when reacting
|
||||
- ✅ Server channels unlock based on selections

# PART 2: MODPACKCHECKER SUPPORT ECOSYSTEM
|
||||
|

### **Pre-Seed Forum with Initial Threads**
|
||||
|
||||
**Michael (or Holly) should create these starter threads:**
|
||||
|
||||
#### **Thread 1: FAQ - Getting Started**
|
||||
**Title:** `[FAQ] Getting Started with ModpackChecker`
|
||||
**Tags:** FAQ, Configuration
|
||||
**Content:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Welcome to ModpackChecker! Here's how to get started:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Install the extension** via Blueprint
|
||||
2. **Configure API keys** in Admin Panel → Extensions → ModpackChecker
|
||||
3. **Wait for auto-detection** (runs every hour via cron)
|
||||
4. **Check your dashboard** for update badges
|
||||
|
||||
**Supported Platforms:**
|
||||
✅ CurseForge (auto-detection)
|
||||
✅ Modrinth (auto-detection)
|
||||
⚙️ FTB (manual config required)
|
||||
⚙️ Technic (manual config required)
|
||||
|
||||
**Full Documentation:** [GitBook URL when ready]
|
||||
|
||||
Questions? Ask in #mvc-general or open a ticket in #mvc-support!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Mark as solved (✅), pin the thread.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
#### **Thread 2: Troubleshooting - Badge is Gray**
|
||||
**Title:** `[Troubleshooting] My badge shows gray / "Not Configured"`
|
||||
**Tags:** Troubleshooting
|
||||
**Content:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
If your dashboard badge is gray or says "Not Configured," this means:
|
||||
|
||||
❌ No modpack was auto-detected
|
||||
❌ Manual configuration has not been set
|
||||
|
||||
**Common Causes:**
|
||||
1. **Vanilla Server** — No modpack manifest exists
|
||||
2. **Custom Modpack** — Not using CurseForge/Modrinth
|
||||
3. **FTB/Technic Server** — Requires manual configuration
|
||||
4. **Manifest File Deleted** — The installer removed manifest.json
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:**
|
||||
Use manual configuration in the server's Console Widget:
|
||||
1. Click "Configure Manually"
|
||||
2. Select platform (CurseForge, Modrinth, FTB, Technic)
|
||||
3. Enter modpack ID
|
||||
4. Save
|
||||
|
||||
The badge will update on the next cron run (every hour).
|
||||
|
||||
**Still stuck?** Open a ticket in #mvc-support with:
|
||||
- Panel version
|
||||
- Blueprint version
|
||||
- Server details (modpack name, platform)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Mark as solved (✅), pin the thread.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
#### **Thread 3: Configuration - Where to Find Modpack IDs**
|
||||
**Title:** `[Configuration] How to find your modpack ID for manual config`
|
||||
**Tags:** Configuration, CurseForge, Modrinth, FTB, Technic
|
||||
**Content:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
When manually configuring a server, you need the modpack ID from the platform.
|
||||
|
||||
**CurseForge:**
|
||||
1. Go to the modpack page (e.g., `curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/all-the-mods-9`)
|
||||
2. Look at the URL — the ID is the number at the end: `715572`
|
||||
3. OR: Look at `manifest.json` → `projectID` field
|
||||
|
||||
**Modrinth:**
|
||||
1. Go to the modpack page (e.g., `modrinth.com/modpack/adrenaserver`)
|
||||
2. The slug is the last part of the URL: `adrenaserver`
|
||||
3. OR: Look at `modrinth.index.json` → Extract from `versionId` field
|
||||
|
||||
**FTB:**
|
||||
1. Go to the FTB App modpack page
|
||||
2. The ID is usually in the URL or modpack details
|
||||
3. Contact FTB support if unclear
|
||||
|
||||
**Technic:**
|
||||
1. Go to `technicpack.net/modpack/[slug]`
|
||||
2. The slug is the modpack identifier (e.g., `tekkit-classic`)
|
||||
|
||||
**Still confused?** Open a ticket in #mvc-support with the modpack name and we'll help!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Mark as solved (✅), pin the thread.
