## Table of Contents

### Getting Started

- [LFG Discord Bot: What LFG Hub Does](https://docs.lfghub.gg/guide/introduction.md): LFG Hub is a free looking-for-group Discord bot: one-click groups, automatic voice channels, scheduling, pings and the cross-server LFG Network. Start here.
- [Discord Bot Permissions and Role Position](https://docs.lfghub.gg/guide/permissions.md): The Discord permissions LFG Hub needs, why each one is needed, and the role-position setting that most often stops voice channels from being created.
- [Set Up an LFG Channel with /setup-lfg-channel](https://docs.lfghub.gg/guide/configuration.md): Configure LFG Hub inside Discord with one optional command: pick games, filters, voice creators and the guide channel for each LFG channel.

### Features

- [Games and LFG Filters](https://docs.lfghub.gg/features/games.md): How games work in LFG Hub: IGDB metadata, per-game filters like platform, mode, rank and region, and requesting a game that isn't listed yet.
- [LFG Groups: Create, Join and Match Players](https://docs.lfghub.gg/features/lfg.md): How LFG Hub groups work on Discord: creating a group with /lfg, searching, pausing and full states, joining in one click and how a search ends.
- [Temporary Voice Channels (Join to Create)](https://docs.lfghub.gg/features/voice-channels.md): Automatic Discord voice channels for every group: join-to-create voice creators, sizing and naming, owner controls and cleanup when everyone leaves.
- [Schedule Game Sessions on Discord](https://docs.lfghub.gg/features/scheduling.md): Schedule an LFG group up to 7 days ahead in your own timezone. Members join in advance and the bot pings everyone when it's time to play.
- [Smart LFG Ping and Group Notifications](https://docs.lfghub.gg/features/notifications.md): How LFG Hub tells the right members about open groups: Smart LFG Ping roles, DM recommendations and their rate limits, so it never turns into spam.
- [LFG Network: Cross-Server Matchmaking](https://docs.lfghub.gg/features/network.md): Connect your Discord server to the LFG Network to share one matchmaking pool with other servers playing the same game, without their posts in your channel.
- [Player Profiles, Roles and Reputation](https://docs.lfghub.gg/features/users.md): LFG Hub's lightweight player profiles, automatic roles and the reputation signal that helps members find good teammates on Discord.
- [LFG Moderation and Player Reports](https://docs.lfghub.gg/features/moderation.md): Members report players or posts from the LFG post itself; moderators get the player's history and the group's chat transcript, with buttons to act.
- [Premium Voice Controls](https://docs.lfghub.gg/features/premium.md): LFG Hub is free. Premium is per user and unlocks a few advanced voice controls such as transferring ownership and locking a channel.
