EOTAK Dashboard - Creating Server Invite Codes

Updated over 3 weeks ago

This guide explains how to generate invite codes for your server, allowing you to control who can join and what permissions they receive.

Overview

Server invite codes allow administrators and managers to securely add new users to their servers. When you create an invite code, you can customize usage limits, expiration dates, default user roles, and other settings to match your server's requirements.

Accessing Invite Code Management

To create a new invite code:

  1. Click the user icon in the top-right corner to open the user menu

  2. Select Admin Panel from the dropdown

  3. Click User Management in the admin panel

  4. Select Invite Code Management

  5. Click Generate New Code

Configuring Your Invite Code

When generating a new code, you have several options to customize how it works:

Maximum Uses

  • By default, invite codes have unlimited uses, meaning they can be shared with as many users as needed

  • To limit the number of people who can use the code, enter a specific number in the Maximum Uses field

  • Once the maximum is reached, the code will no longer work

Default User Role

  • All users who join via an invite code are assigned the Member role by default

  • You can change this to Admin or Manager if you want new users to have elevated permissions

  • Choose the appropriate role based on the responsibilities you want these users to have

Expiration Settings

  • By default, invite codes are set to never expire, making them valid indefinitely

  • To set an expiration, click Set expiration date

  • Enter the number of days the code should remain active in the Expires In (Days) field

  • The code will automatically become invalid after the specified time period

Auto-Delete Users on Expiration

  • When an invite code expires, users who joined with that code will remain on your server by default

  • To automatically remove these users when the code expires, enable Auto-delete users on expiration

  • This is useful for temporary access scenarios or trial periods

Generating and Sharing the Code

Once you've configured your settings:

  1. Click Generate Code

  2. The new invite code will appear in your invite code dashboard

  3. To share the code, either:

    • Click the copy icon to copy it to your clipboard

    • Manually select the invite code text and copy it

You can now share this code with users you want to invite to your server.

Next Steps

After creating invite codes, you may want to:

  • Monitor who joins using your codes (see: Managing Invited Users)

  • Extend expiration dates as needed (see: Extending Invite Expirations)

  • Disable or revoke codes when they're no longer needed (see: Disabling Invite Codes)
