# Dashboard Issues

> What to check when petto.sbs/dash isn't behaving.

## A server isn't showing up in "Manage"

The dashboard only lists servers where **both** of these are true: Petto is actually in that server, and your Discord account has **Manage Server** permission there. Missing either one hides it from the list, this is a live check against Discord every time the page loads, not a cached list.

## Changes aren't saving

<Steps>
  <Step title="Check for a red error banner">
    Most save failures show an inline error instead of failing silently.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Refresh and try again">
    Your login session (via Discord OAuth) can expire, a refresh usually re-establishes it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Try the equivalent command instead">
    Every dashboard page has a matching command, useful to confirm whether it's a dashboard issue specifically or the underlying setting itself.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Bot appearance changes aren't showing in Discord

Nickname/avatar/banner changes from the Customize page are real, applied directly through Discord, but Discord's own clients cache profile data client-side. Give it a minute, or restart your Discord client if it's still stale after that.

## The embed preview looks different from what actually sends

The dashboard's [Embeds](/resources/scripting/embeds) preview (and `!embed preview`) both show **raw, unresolved** `{variable}` tokens on purpose, they don't have a real member/event to pull data from at preview time. That's expected, not a bug, see [How Variables Resolve](/concepts/variables-engine).

## Still stuck

  Ask directly, a screenshot of the exact error usually speeds things up.
