Recognizing hard work and growth within your team is easy with the /promote command. When you promote a staff member, Burger Bot instantly sends a polished promotion embed to your configured promotions channel — keeping your entire community in the loop without any manual effort on your part.

Description

The /promote command lets administrators formally promote a staff member to a new rank within the server’s staff hierarchy. A branded promotion embed is automatically dispatched to the configured promotions channel, complete with the promoted member’s name, their new rank, who approved the promotion, and any optional note you’d like to include.

Usage

/promote @user [rank] [note]

Parameters

user
@mention
required
The staff member you want to promote. Must be an @mention of a valid server member.
rank
string
required
The name of the new rank the member is being promoted to. This should match your server’s defined rank structure (e.g., Senior Moderator, Head of Staff).

The promotions channel must be set up before using this command. Configure it with /config channels and assign the appropriate channel for promotion announcements.

Example Usage

/promote @Alex Senior Moderator Consistently outstanding moderation and community support.
This command promotes @Alex to Senior Moderator and sends the following to your promotions channel:
  • 🏅 Promoted: Alex
  • 📈 New Rank: Senior Moderator
  • 👤 Promoted By: You
  • 📝 Note: Consistently outstanding moderation and community support.
The promotion embed uses your server’s configured Promotion Banner image for a fully branded look. Set this up under /config appearance to make every promotion announcement feel polished and on-brand.
If no promotions channel is configured, the command will fail with an error. Make sure /config channels is fully set up before issuing promotions.
