🔗 Required Permissions¶
Give DailyQuotes these permissions so your features work smoothly:
| Permission | Why you want it |
|---|---|
| Send Messages | You let the bot post daily quotes in your chosen channel |
| Manage Webhooks | You get cleaner premium picture posts with better presentation |
| Embed Links | You see styled quote cards instead of plain text |
| Attach Files | You can receive image quotes and visual quote features |
| Add Reactions | You can use auto-reactions on quote messages (optional) |
Pro Tip
Without Manage Webhooks, the bot falls back to basic embed-style quotes.
