I am no longer maintaining this project. It should continue to work just fine, but if it breaks I won't be interested in fixing it.
You are welcome to fork and update the code yourself. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have in this regard.
A Discord bot to assign/remove a role from users in your guild based on whether or not they have been active lately.
- Remove an 'active' role from a user who has not been active for a number of days
- Optionally assign an 'inactive' role to a user when they lose the 'active' role
- Optionally re-assign the 'active' role when a user who becomes active again
- Configure specific users or roles to be exempt from monitoring
- Configure threshold for inactivity
- Keep active members at the top of the members sidebar
- Reward active members for participating in the community
- Recognise how many inactive members your server has
A community member, Oliver4888, is kindly offering public hosts of my Discord bots for other community members. If you are interested in using this community-provided instance, you can find more at https://bots.ol48.uk/.
Please note that I cannot personally verify or take responsibility for the integrity of a community-provided bot instance.
Activity Monitor needs to be deployed before you can invite it to your Discord server. Please see my written deployment guide or video tutorial which can guide you through deployment even if you are a beginner.
