Auto Voting votes for [Server Directory](https://docs.melonly.com/Discovery/serverdirectory.md) servers for you every 12 hours, so you can keep supporting a server without coming back to vote. Each server you auto vote for uses one slot. You manage your slots in the **Auto Votes** card in [Account Settings](https://melonly.com/my/account#auto-votes). You can also get there from **Set up Auto Vote** in a server's vote window. ![The Auto Votes card in Account Settings with the Get more slots and Add server buttons](https://mintcdn.com/melonly/RiSfGppMxTcoFdvZ/images/Discovery/autovote-card.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=RiSfGppMxTcoFdvZ\&q=85\&s=2e37553fb54e59a1a93eec21428d9430) The Auto Votes Card *** ## Getting Slots [Melonly Pro](https://docs.melonly.com/Guides/pro.md) includes one free slot and lowers the price of any others. Everyone else can buy slots separately. You can have up to 10 slots in total, including the free one. | Price per Slot | Monthly | Annually | | - | - | - | | Standard | \$1.49 | \$14.99 | | With Melonly Pro | \$0.99 | \$9.99 | Prices are in US dollars, plus tax. If you get or lose Melonly Pro later, your slots switch to the matching price automatically. To buy slots, click **Get more slots**, choose how many you want and how often to pay, then click **Continue to checkout**. Your new slots appear once your payment is confirmed. ![The Get more slots window with the Monthly and Annually switch, the number of slots, the price and the Continue to checkout button](https://mintcdn.com/melonly/RiSfGppMxTcoFdvZ/images/Discovery/autovote-slots.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=RiSfGppMxTcoFdvZ\&q=85\&s=99135646cd97e32a3bf3be756ed4efff) Buying More Slots While a checkout is open, its slots are reserved and count toward your limit of 10. They're released if the checkout expires, which happens after 30 minutes. *** ## Adding a Server **1. Open the Auto Votes Card** Go to [Account Settings](https://melonly.com/my/account#auto-votes) and find **Auto Votes**. **2. Click Add Server** This button appears when you have a free slot. If you don't, click **Get more slots** first. **3. Find the Server** Search by name. Only public Server Directory listings appear. **4. Click Activate** Your first vote happens about 12 hours later. The card then shows roughly when the next vote is due. ![The Activate Auto Vote window with a server search and an Activate button beside each result](https://mintcdn.com/melonly/RiSfGppMxTcoFdvZ/images/Discovery/autovote-add-server.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=RiSfGppMxTcoFdvZ\&q=85\&s=e352852b4f67ef0a311a412805de36e9) Choosing a Server You need a linked Discord account to activate a slot. You can only use one slot per server, and you can't auto vote for a server you own. *** ## How Auto Votes Work An auto vote adds to the server's vote count and counts toward [boosts](https://docs.melonly.com/Discovery/serverdirectory.md#boosts), just like a vote by hand. If the server has a Voter Role and you're in its Discord, you get that role too. | Situation | Description | | - | - | | You vote by hand for a different server | This still works. Auto votes don't use up your own vote every 12 hours | | You already voted by hand for the same server | The auto vote waits until 12 hours after your vote | | An auto vote just went through for a server | You can't vote by hand for that server until 12 hours have passed | *** ## Managing Your Slots Each server in the card has these buttons and badges: | Item | Description | | - | - | | Pro badge | This is the free slot from Melonly Pro | | Paused badge | This slot isn't voting right now. Only Remove server is available | | Replace server | Moves the slot to a different server without resetting the time of the next vote | | Remove server | Empties the slot so you can use it for another server | Removing a server doesn't cancel your subscription, so you keep paying for the empty slot. To cancel or change a subscription, go to [Billing](https://docs.melonly.com/Guides/managingsubs/billing.md). > [accordion] Why is my slot paused? > > Your free slot pauses if you no longer have Melonly Pro. A paid slot shows as paused if there's a problem with its subscription, so check it in Billing. > [accordion] Why did my server disappear from a slot? > > Melonly empties a slot if the server's listing is removed or no longer public, or if you own the server. The slot stays yours, so you can add another server. > [accordion] What happens when I cancel? > > Your paid slots keep voting until the subscription ends, then they're removed. *** ## Example Use Cases * Supporting your favourite communities without setting a reminder * Keeping a Voter Role on a server you play on every day * Helping a server you staff compete for a boost *** > [card] [Need help?](https://melonly.com/discord) > > Still have questions?
