The first step to setting up a system VIA Leveret is to create a member.&#x20;

***

Run the command `/member create` in any channel, it will ask for both a `proxytext` and a `name`.

| Option      | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
| ----------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `proxytext` | The proxy text is <mark style="color:orange;">**what will trigger your message to send VIA a webhook**</mark>. Currently, proxy text can only be <mark style="color:orange;">**at the beginning**</mark> of a message. This will be updated eventually. Be creative, since as long as the bot is in the server it will proxy the message. |
| `name`      | This is what <mark style="color:orange;">**your member will be referred**</mark> to when <mark style="color:orange;">**editing, deleting,**</mark> or <mark style="color:orange;">**any thing else**</mark> of the sorts.                                                                                                                 |

After creating your member, you will receive a panel to manage your member.

To manage your member, use the buttons to change specific parts.

| Button                                                          | Description                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| --------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <mark style="color:orange;">**Add Display Name**</mark>         | The Display Name is defaulted to your member's name. The display name is what will show when a message is proxied.                                                                             |
| <mark style="color:orange;">**Add Description/About Me**</mark> | The Description/About Me is what will appear in `/member view` as their about me. You can add any form of details about the member you wish, but the character count's max is 2000 characters. |
| <mark style="color:orange;">**Add Pronouns**</mark>             | The pronouns of the member.                                                                                                                                                                    |
| <mark style="color:orange;">**Add Avatar**</mark>               | The Avatar is what will appear beside your member when their message is webhooked. If you do not have an avatar set, it will default to Leveret's profile picture.                             |
| <mark style="color:orange;">**Change Color**</mark>             | The color is what will appear as the embed color under the `/member view` command.                                                                                                             |

***

Now that your member is all setup, you can proxy your message using the `proxytext` you set up!

{% hint style="info" %}
NOTE: the first message sent in a channel will take a bit to be deleted and proxied (as seen above) as it needs to make the webhook for the channel.
