How can CaptchaGuard Bot help improve security in my Discord server?
CaptchaGuard Bot enhances your Discord server's security by implementing a captcha verification system for new members. When a user joins your server, CaptchaGuard Bot automatically sends them a direct message with a captcha challenge. This helps prevent automated bots from joining and potentially spamming your server, ensuring that only real users can gain full access to your community.
Can CaptchaGuard Bot be customized for different types of communities?
While the current implementation of CaptchaGuard Bot uses a basic alphanumeric captcha, it can be customized to suit different community needs. For example, you could modify the captcha generation to include community-specific questions or puzzles. This not only enhances security but also helps introduce new members to your community's theme or culture.
How does CaptchaGuard Bot handle verification across multiple servers?
CaptchaGuard Bot is designed to work across multiple servers simultaneously. When a user joins any server where the bot is active, it will send them a captcha challenge. If the user successfully completes the challenge, they will be verified in that specific server. This means that verification status is server-specific, allowing for independent security management across different communities.
How can I modify CaptchaGuard Bot to use a custom captcha generation method?
You can easily customize the captcha generation in CaptchaGuard Bot by modifying the generate_captcha() function. For example, if you want to create a simple math problem as a captcha, you could replace the current function with something like this:
python
def generate_captcha():
num1 = random.randint(1, 10)
num2 = random.randint(1, 10)
operation = random.choice(['+', '-', '*'])
problem = f"{num1} {operation} {num2}"
solution = eval(problem)
return (problem, str(solution))
You would then need to modify the message sending and verification logic to use this new captcha format.
How can I add a timeout feature to CaptchaGuard Bot for unanswered captchas?
To add a timeout feature, you can use asyncio's wait_for() function. Here's an example of how you could modify the on_message event to include a timeout:
python
@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
if isinstance(message.channel, discord.DMChannel) and not message.author.bot:
try:
# Wait for a response for 5 minutes
response = await bot.wait_for('message',
check=lambda m: m.author == message.author,
timeout=300.0)
# Process the response...
except asyncio.TimeoutError:
await message.author.send("Verification timed out. Please rejoin the server to try again.")
# Here you might want to kick the user from the server
await bot.process_commands(message)
This modification gives users 5 minutes to respond to the captcha before timing out. Remember to import asyncio at the top of your script to use this feature in CaptchaGuard Bot.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use the CaptchaGuard Bot template:
Introduction
The CaptchaGuard Bot is a Discord bot that provides captcha challenges to new members upon joining a guild. This bot helps verify users and adds a layer of security to your Discord server.
Getting Started
-
Click "Start with this Template" to begin using the CaptchaGuard Bot template in Lazy.
-
Set up the required environment secret:
- In the Lazy Builder interface, navigate to the Environment Secrets tab.
- Add a new secret with the key
BOT_TOKEN. - To get your Bot Token:
- Go to the Discord Developer Portal.
- Create a new application or select an existing one.
- Navigate to the "Bot" section.
- Click "Add Bot" if you haven't created a bot for this application yet.
- Under the "Token" section, click "Copy" to copy your bot token.
- Paste the copied token as the value for the
BOT_TOKENsecret in Lazy.
Test the Bot
- Click the "Test" button in the Lazy Builder interface to start the deployment process.
Using the Bot
-
Once the bot is running, it will automatically send captcha challenges to new members who join your Discord server.
-
The bot will perform the following actions:
- Send a direct message to new members with a captcha challenge.
- Ask the user to respond with the captcha to verify themselves.
-
Provide an invite link for the bot (in case it's not already in the server).
-
When a user responds to the captcha in a direct message:
- The bot will thank them for responding.
- If a "Verified" role exists in the server, the bot will assign this role to the user.
- The user will receive a confirmation message that they've been verified.
Integrating the Bot
- To add the bot to your Discord server:
- Use the invite link provided in the bot's direct message to new members.
-
Alternatively, you can create an invite link in the Discord Developer Portal:
- Go to your application in the Discord Developer Portal.
- Navigate to the "OAuth2" section.
- In the "Scopes" section, select "bot".
- In the "Bot Permissions" section, select the necessary permissions (at minimum: "Send Messages", "Read Messages/View Channels", "Manage Roles").
- Copy the generated URL and use it to invite the bot to your server.
-
Create a "Verified" role in your Discord server:
- In your Discord server settings, go to the "Roles" section.
- Click the "+" button to create a new role.
- Name the role "Verified".
-
Set the appropriate permissions for verified users.
-
Ensure the bot's role is higher in the role hierarchy than the "Verified" role to allow it to assign the role to users.
By following these steps, you'll have successfully set up and integrated the CaptchaGuard Bot into your Discord server, providing an additional layer of security through captcha verification for new members.
Here are 5 key business benefits for the CaptchaGuard Bot template:
Template Benefits
-
Enhanced Server Security: By implementing captcha verification, this bot significantly reduces the risk of bot accounts and spam infiltrating Discord servers, protecting business communities and sensitive discussions.
-
Automated User Verification: The bot automates the process of verifying new members, saving administrators time and ensuring a consistent onboarding experience for all users joining business-related Discord servers.
-
Customizable Access Control: With the ability to assign a "Verified" role, businesses can easily manage access to different channels and information, ensuring that only authenticated users can view sensitive content.
-
Improved User Experience: By handling verification through direct messages, the bot provides a smoother, more private verification process for new members, enhancing the overall user experience in professional settings.
-
Scalable Member Management: As the bot automatically handles verification for each new member, it allows businesses to scale their Discord communities efficiently without increasing the workload on human moderators.
