Server-owner guide

Find the right command. Get your server connected.

A practical command reference and first-use walkthrough for customers who run DayZ servers. You can search the main bot's registered commands below; your Discord dashboard shows the list for your own setup.

Your first five minutes

Add Wandering Bot to the Discord you manage, activate your plan for that Discord, and open your customer dashboard. Choose the DayZ server profile you mean to configure before editing anything.

Select your actual platform and hosting provider. Console and PC connections need different information; a Discord feed channel by itself does not connect your DayZ server. Follow the dashboard connection checks, then run /setup and /admstatus in Discord.

Choose the channels for the feeds you want. /listfeeds shows their names; /togglefeed offers clickable suggestions for turning one on or off. Test one feed before changing the rest.

Common jobs in Discord

Type / and pick Wandering Bot in Discord. Discord displays the available command fields. Required fields are shown in <angle brackets> below; [square brackets] are optional. Some commands need a server-admin role, the correct plan, or a connected profile.

Use /helpme for the command list currently available in your Discord. If you installed a separate companion bot, choose that bot's commands instead of looking for them under Wandering Bot.

/setupGuided setupStart or review the private setup flow.
/admstatusConnection statusCheck configured server and feed readiness.
/listfeedsAvailable feedsSee feeds for the selected server.
/togglefeedTurn a feed on or offPick from suggested feeds rather than memorising a key.
/onlinePlayers onlineCheck the online-player view when tracking is connected.
/helpmeFull live listShow main-bot commands relevant to your Discord.

Shop and other companion bots

The Shop, Moderator and Voice bots have separate Discord command menus. If your plan includes a companion, it still needs to be installed in that Discord. Their commands are not part of the main-bot list below.

For Shop, start with /shop help. For Moderator, use /mod help. For Voice, use /voice help. Discord will only offer a command when that bot is installed and has registered it.

Never post provider tokens, FTP or RCon passwords, dashboard passwords or full private logs in a public channel. Server restart, bans, payouts and file uploads can affect live players; check the selected server first.

Crafting and illness panels

In the text channel where players should find the guide, an authorised server admin runs Wandering Bot's /survivalguide. Choose Both for one combined panel, or Illness Help only or Crafting only for separate panels. The channel option is optional; without it, the panel goes in the current channel.

Players use the panel buttons to browse conditions or recipes and search privately. To update an existing panel, select Refresh in /survivalguide rather than posting a duplicate. The public website libraries are also available without a Discord command. This is in-game DayZ guidance, not real-world medical advice; modded servers can differ.

/survivalguidePublish or refresh the guideWandering Bot · authorised server admin · choose Both, Illness Help only, or Crafting only.

Player trading panel

Trading belongs to the separate Wandering Shop bot. Install it in the Discord and configure at least one enabled DayZ server. A manager with Manage Server permission runs /trade panel and selects a public trading channel; the reusable board has Browse listings, Create listing and My listings buttons.

Players state what they offer, the DayZ server, and the price or alternative items they will accept. Use /trade list for an optional image attachment, /trade browse to search, /trade mine to find your listings, and /trade close when sold or withdrawn. This is fixed-price sale or exchange, not bidding; players arrange the handover themselves. The bot does not hold items, verify ownership or move money.

/trade browseFind an offerWandering Shop · players · browse active listings privately.
/trade closeFinish an offerWandering Shop · seller or staff · mark sold or withdraw.

Private player-to-staff ticket panel

A server administrator runs Wandering Bot's /ticketpanel in the public help channel where players should find the button. Players choose faction request, unban request, player report, server issue or general support, then provide details privately to that DayZ server's staff. They can also start with /ticket.

This is for a server's own player support. /supportbot is a separate private ticket to Wandering Bot's support team. Keep the ticket panel easy for players to see, but check that private ticket channels are visible only to the requester and authorised staff.

/ticketpanelPost the player ticket buttonWandering Bot · server administrator · run it in the chosen help channel.
/ticketOpen a server ticketWandering Bot · player · choose a category for the server's staff.

If something does not work

If a command is missing, check that the correct bot is installed, your plan is active for that Discord, your role allows it and the bot can see the channel. Try /helpme to confirm the current main-bot list.

If a feed channel exists but stays empty, check /admstatus, the chosen server profile, provider or PC RCon connection, the feed toggle and its route. Use the troubleshooting guide for safe first checks before changing live files or buying anything again.

Complete main-bot command reference

Search by what you want to do. Commands shown here come from the bot's registered slash-command menu; your plan, server platform, installed companion bots and Discord permissions decide which ones appear in your server. Required options use <angle brackets>; optional options use [square brackets].
