Switch from Wick
Moving from Wick to ZeroBot
ZeroBot cannot log in to Wick, and no bot can read another bot's settings. What it can do is read what Wick left in your server, show you a plan, and take over the parts you tick. Free on every plan.
What comes over
Security
The scan looks for these. Each one it finds is a suggestion with its own switch.
- The role new members get, read from members who joined in the last two weeks. If that is not clear, you pick it.
- Discord AutoMod rules keep running in Discord. Keyword rules can also be copied into ZeroBot's word filter.
- Log channels, found by their names: mod log, server log, automod log and role log.
- The verification channel and the verified and unverified roles, filled in on ZeroBot's Verification page.
- Roles named trusted, whitelist or bypass become bypass roles for automod, the chat filter, anti-spam, ghost ping alerts, voice roles and the AFK mover.
What you do yourself
- Drag ZeroBot's role above the roles it should hand out, in Server Settings, Roles. The plan tells you which ones.
- Switch verification on yourself. The import only fills it in, because it holds new members back.
- A quarantine or jail role is shown, not used: ZeroBot's Nuke protection quarantines by itself.
- Remove Wick when you are ready. ZeroBot never removes another bot.
What no import can read
- Custom commands and their replies
- Settings kept in the other bot's own dashboard
- Warnings, cases and notes
- Coins, shops and inventories
- Button and menu roles (rebuild them with ZeroBot's self roles)
- AutoMod regex patterns (they keep running in Discord)
Bots keep these in their own database, so no other bot can read them. This is the same for every bot.
How to switch
- 01
Add ZeroBot
Invite ZeroBot to your server. The invite asks for Administrator, so it can read the roles, channels and AutoMod rules the import needs.
- 02
Open the importer
Sign in with Discord, pick your server and open Import from other bots in the dashboard.
- 03
Scan your server
Press Scan this server. ZeroBot reads your roles, Discord's AutoMod rules and the latest 50 messages in up to 25 channels. The scan only reads.
- 04
Check the plan
Every part has its own switch. Where a message does not say which role an emoji gives, you pick the role.
- 05
Import
Press Import, then Yes, import. ZeroBot writes only its own settings. Wick, its messages and Discord's AutoMod rules stay as they are.
- 06
Finish up
Check the pages ZeroBot now runs, then remove Wick in Server Settings, Integrations. Changed your mind? Undo reverses the import for 30 days.
Good to know
- Nothing changes until you press Import, and Undo works for 30 days.
- Both bots can run side by side while you check. Reaction roles keep working on the same message.
- The import and the level import are free on every plan.

Add ZeroBot first, then open the importer for your server.
