Start by inviting the bot to your server and once it's in do the command `-help` It will pop up an embed that looks like this: ![Lockdowns help message](/files/-Mgnq1DPynItdgOg6ttv) Once the embed message pops up you can either go through each command category or follow these steps below!\ \ **Lockdown Setup Steps** 1. Create a log channel so you know what's going on in your server. `-setlogchannel #channel` 2. Once you have your logging channel setup, start whitelisting trusted users. `-whitelist @user` 3. After you setup your whitelisted users, Turn anti-nuke on so it can protect your server. `-antinuke on` 4. Finally once you have turned antinuke on, turn on antibot it prevents bots from joining. `-antibot on` 5. Hooray! You have now fully protected your server. Any problems?
