# Settings

> Every field on the roleplay dashboard page explained: enabling it, role restrictions and message/footer/color overrides.

Roleplay is configured on the [dashboard](https://dashboard.bettertickets.gg/)'s Roleplay Config page.

* **Roleplay enabled** turns roleplay commands on or off for the server. On by default. Running any roleplay command while it's off replies that it needs to be enabled, unless **Silent reply when disabled** is also on, in which case slash-command uses fail silently instead.
* **Silent reply when disabled** suppresses the "not enabled" reply. Only applies to slash command uses. Has no effect if roleplay is already enabled.
* **Required roles** restricts who can be *targeted* by roleplay commands to members with one of these roles, if set.
* **Roles required to use commands** restricts who can *run* roleplay commands to members with one of these roles, if set.
* **Message template** (Premium, any tier) overrides the default action text for every roleplay command. Supports [variables](/docs/variables) plus [roleplay-specific variables](/docs/variables#roleplay) like `{{verb}}`, `{{mutualCount}}` and `{{receivedCount}}`. For solo commands (e.g. `/cry`, `/dance`) that can be run without a target, use `{% if target.id %}...{% else %}...{% endif %}` to control what's shown in each case. See the default template for an example. Up to 1,500 characters.
* **Footer text** (Premium, any tier) overrides the default small text shown below the image. Up to 500 characters.
* **Embed color** (Premium, any tier) overrides the accent color on roleplay messages. A 6-digit hex code, no `#`.

Free servers and any premium server that hasn't set a custom message/footer/color, use the built-in defaults. See [Variables](/docs/variables#roleplay) for exactly what those are.

<Note>
  "Required roles" gates who can be *targeted* and "Roles required to use commands" gates who can *run* the commands. The naming is easy to mix up. Double check you've set the one you mean.
