# discord.py-welcome-bot
__
A simple bot that can be used to welcome new users to a discord server, send them a custom private message, send a welcome message to a specific channel, and adding them to a role.
A video explaining how to set up everything except adding the user to a role can be found [here](https://youtu.be/N0NP7BfUFxA).
**Update November 2019** - Now set up as a docker container to ensure full compatibility as I will not be maintaining this. Specific versions of Python and Discord.py are required for this script to work.\
**Update November 2020** - Added basic install instructions for home computers and generic Linux distros, and how to enable Intents.
## Intents
__
Go to the [Discord Developer Portal](https://discord.com/developers/applications) and select your bot. Now move to the bot tab and scroll down. There you should see `Priveledged Gateway Intents`. Enable the `Members` intent.
