Debugging the leveling plugin

Arcane's leveling module has lots of moving parts so its easy to make it "not work"

Members are not gaining XP

Many things can be incorrectly configured and make Arcane appear to need fixing. Just note that Arcane does not just "break" and stop giving XP. If Arcane is not giving users XP, then you should check the following:

No XP Roles

Verify that the member or members do not have a no XP role.

No XP Channels

Pay attention to the mode selected

  • No XP channels works as a blacklist. Members will not earn any XP in the channels selected.

  • XP channels works as a whitelist. Members will only earn XP in the channels selected.

Verify that the user or members are not speaking in a no XP channel. Make sure to double check the mode you have selected for the no XP channels.

Arcane's Permissions

Arcane needs to have all of the following permissions for leveling to work.

PermissionReason
View Channels/Read MessagesArcane needs to be able to see when members send messages
Send MessagesArcane needs to be able to send messages when members level-up (if enabled)
Attach ImagesArcane needs to be able to send images when members level-up (if enabled)

Max Level

Verify that the member or members have not hit the max level.

Members are not gaining XP in voice channels

Make sure to go through Members are not gaining XP.

Premium Bot

Voice leveling requires the premium bot. Make sure that you have invited the Premium bot to your server.

Members

Make sure that there are at least the minimum number of non-muted and non-deaf members in the voice channel.

Role rewards are not assigning

INFO

Arcane does not update roles when members earn xp, only level-ups. Mass role assignment is not available if you did not setup permissions correctly.

Please see our frequently asked questions. If Arcane has the permissions to manage roles then your member's roles will be updated the next time they level-up, not the next time they earn XP. Arcane will not do mass role updates.

Levelup message wont send

Arcane needs to have all of the following permissions for the levelup message to send:

PermissionReason
View Channels/Read MessagesArcane needs to be able to see when members send messages and view the channel
Send MessagesArcane needs to be able to send messages
Attach ImagesArcane needs to be able to send images
Embed LinksArcane needs to be able to embed links
