Fixing common Discord leveling problems

Most leveling questions come down to enabling it, channel access, or the rank card image.

Common issues

If you see thisWhat to do
"Leveling is not enabled on this server yet"Turn it on from the dashboard with /setup, then set your XP rates.
The rank card shows as text instead of an imageThe bot host is missing the image library, or the card background failed to load. A plain text card is the safe fallback.
The background image shows in the portal but is blank on the cardDiscord attachment links (cdn.discordapp.com) are signed and expire after about a day, so they preview in your browser but the bot cannot fetch them later. mimBo's now saves a permanent copy when you set the background, so open the Leveling settings and press Save once to re-host it. Any direct image link works, including Discord ones.
Level-up messages do not appearCheck where announcements are sent (current channel, a fixed channel, or DM) and that the bot can post there. Set it to off if you do not want them.
Role rewards are not givenThe bot needs Manage Roles and its role above the reward role.
Tip. Still stuck? Read how Discord permissions and role order work.
