Welcome to the FAQ!

1. Servers not Showing

There are multiple reasons servers might not be showing, these are the two frequent ones. Your problem may be a mixture of both.

Possible Solution 1 - Enable privileged gateway intents

For LiveBot to do what it does, your bot must have all Privileged Gateway Intents enabled within Discord's application settings page, under the Bot tab. (see screenshot)

Changing these gateway intents have been shown to take up to an hour to take effect.

Enable all 3 gateway intents

Possible Solution 2 - Bot doesn't share servers with owner

In order for servers to show in LiveBot, both the bot's account and the account which the bot was created under must be in the same servers.

Only the servers/channels/messages that the bot and the owner have in common will show.

This is done to prevent LiveBot users from being shown messages which were not intended for their eyes to see.

2. LiveBot is stuck loading

As with faq-1, there are multiple reasons LiveBot may not load for you. These are the recorded solutions.

Possible Solution 1 - MacOS

LiveBot's release does not appear to be working on MacOS due to some privacy issues, as I'm not going through the hassle of signing the build. If you switch to using the source by following the instructions on the README, LiveBot will work as well as it does on any other supported OS.

Possible Solution 2 - "Install" failed

While extracting the compressed file containing the release, it is common for the extraction to fail or some part of the process to fail. Make sure you extract properly using whichever tool you have, or just retry.
