Has Paid Features

What I offer:

Trap channels are the core of what I do. Set up a honeypot channel and anyone who posts in it gets instantly banned, with no delay or manual review needed. Spam bots and self-promoters walk into the trap and remove themselves from your server automatically.

Core features:

Trap channels with instant auto-ban for anyone who posts
Ignore roles to protect staff, trusted members, and bots from the trap
Auto-delete messages in trap channels after 1 to 14 days, with pinned messages always preserved
Full moderation suite: ban, kick, timeout, mute, hard mute, warn, and purge commands
Warning system with per-user warning history and individual warning removal
Ban tracking with /bancount
Mod logging for all moderation actions
Easy first-time setup with /setup


Premium features:

Role replacement: automatically remove roles when other roles are assigned
Welcome messages triggered by role assignment
Bulk role swapping with /roleswap

Getting Premium:

Vote for Howli on top.gg daily and use /checkvote to claim 24-hour Premium access. New servers get a one-time 7-day trial with /claimtrial. Permanent Premium is also available via Discord's native subscription system.

Required permissions: Manage Roles and Ban Members. Without these, the bot cannot function.

Howli
