Logs
Log server events - message edits and deletes, channel, role, ban, voice, and invite changes - to the channels you choose.
View this page in the localized AntiLink documentation
Logs is a server-event logger. It records what happens in your server - messages deleted or edited, channels and roles created or changed, bans, voice moves, new invites, and more - and posts a clean embed to the log channel you pick, in the color you pick, for every event you turn on.
It is separate from Protection Logs (which records what AntiLink removes). Logs never moderates - it only keeps a record. It is free and off by default: nothing is logged until you enable it and choose channels.
Open the dashboard, pick your server, and go to Moderation -> Logs.
Turn on the master toggle at the top.
For each event you want to record, switch it on, choose a log channel, and optionally pick an embed color. An event that is on but has no channel set is not logged.
Save. Changes apply within a few seconds.
Info
Every event is independent. You can send message deletes to
#message-log, bans to#mod-log, and voice activity to#voice-log, each in its own color.
Logs groups events into categories. Turn on only the ones you want to see.
| Category | Events |
|---|---|
| Messages | Message deleted, message edited |
| Channels | Channel created / deleted / updated, thread created / deleted |
| Roles | Role created / deleted / updated |
| Moderation | Member banned, member unbanned |
| Voice | Voice join / leave / move |
| Server | Invite created, server updated |
| Members | Member joined, member left, nickname or roles changed (needs the Server Members intent - see below) |
Each embed shows the details that matter for that event - for a deleted message: the author, channel, and content; for a ban: the user and reason; for a voice move: the old and new channels; for a role update: what changed.
Warning
Message delete and edit logging covers recent messages. Discord only tells bots about edits and deletions for messages still in the bot's cache, so very old messages may not appear. This is a Discord limitation, not a setting you can change. Bot messages are skipped.
Most events need no special setup - message, channel, role, thread, invite, ban, voice, and server-update logging all work as soon as you enable Logs.
The Members category is different. Logging when members join, leave, or change their nickname or roles relies on Discord's Server Members privileged intent - the same intent Member Defense uses. If member events are not appearing while the other categories are, the members intent is not active for the bot; every non-member event still works without it.
They answer different questions, so most servers use both:
- Protection Logs - what AntiLink did: links it removed and enforcement actions it took. Read it on the Protection Logs tab.
- Logs - what happened in your server: edits, deletions, and structural changes. You choose exactly which events to record and where.
- Point sensitive categories (deletes, bans, role changes) at a staff-only channel so the log itself is not public.
- Use distinct colors per category to scan a busy log channel at a glance.
- Start with just the events you care about; you can add more any time.
