Get your members signed in

There's nothing to send out and no invite codes to manage. Members join your community by signing in on your community's website with their Discord account. The first time they do, they're added to your community and show up on your People page.

This article explains what your members need to do, what they'll see, and how to get them from "signed in" to being on a department's roster.

What your members do#

Share your website's address with your members, for example in your Discord server's welcome channel. Then they:

1. Go to your community's website.
2. Click Sign in at the top right.
3. Click Continue with Discord and allow LonexOne to see their Discord account.

That's it. They're sent back to your website, signed in. If they've never used LonexOne before, signing in creates their LonexOne account at the same time.

Where members land#

• If you've installed the Department Panel, members land on their own dashboard. From there they can apply to departments, request leave and see their record.
• If not, they land on your website's home page.

If they clicked a link that needed them to sign in, like the CAD, they're taken straight back to it.

Getting members into departments#

Signing in makes someone a member of your community, but it doesn't put them in a department. There are three ways to do that:

• Applications. Members apply on your website and your staff accept them. You need the Department Panel for this.
• Add them yourself. Staff with permission to manage the roster can add anyone to a department.
• Import them. If you're moving from another system, import your roster from a spreadsheet.

A member who isn't in a department can still use the parts of your website that are open to everyone, and the Civilian side of the CAD.

Seeing who has signed in#

Open People in the sidebar of your control panel. Everyone who has signed in to your community is listed, and the number next to People in the sidebar is your member count.

Other ways to sign in#

Members can also sign in with Google or with a link sent to their email. They have to set these up first, after signing in with Discord. See Sign in with Discord, Google or email.

Something not working?#

A member says the sign in link expired. The link between lonexone.com and your website only lasts a short time. Ask them to click Sign in on your website again.

A member signed in but isn't on the People page. Check they signed in on your community's website, not just on lonexone.com. Signing in on your website is what adds them to your community.

A member can't sign in with Google. Google only works once it's linked to their account. They need to sign in with Discord first and link Google from their account page.
