Logging events is done by a specific component of GetBeaned. Every time discord notifies the bot, a special embed is crafted for your enabled logging channels and sent to the right channel. The bot uses information it can retrieve from discord (authors, IDs, ...) and information it downloaded previously.

* Only some editions and deletions can be logged due to technical limitations.
On the Discord client, create a new channel called #mod-log(or anything else really, but we will use #mod-log for this example)
Double-check that GetBeaned and moderators are the only groups allowed to write and embed links in that channel.
Now, type +channel_idto get the channel ID and copy it to your clipboard.
On your server settings page (+urlsto get the url of the page), go the the Logs tab and paste the channel ID on the log(s) you want GetBeaned to post on that channel.
Back on Discord, use the +doctorcommand to double-check that logging channels are setup correctly!
You have successfully setup logging on your server.
