### Viewing Bans

1. **Open Your Workspace**\
   Log in to the Panora Dashboard and select your workspace. Navigate to **Moderation → Ban Manager** in the sidebar.
2. **View Banned Users**\
   Each banned user entry displays:

| Field          | Description                           | Example               |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------- | --------------------- |
| **User**       | Discord username of the banned member | `prrent`              |
| **ID**         | Discord user ID                       | `1112194829905051749` |
| **Ban Reason** | Reason for the ban                    | `Test Ban`            |

* **Quick Actions:** Click the **three-dot menu** to copy ban info or their Discord ID.
* **Unban:** Click the red **Unban** button to restore access to the server.

> Note: Panora tracks all server bans, including those issued outside of Panora bots.

### Creating a Ban

1. **Open the Ban Modal**\
   Click the **+ button** in Ban Manager.
2. **Enter User Information**
   * **Discord User ID:** The unique ID assigned to the user (e.g., `123456789012345678`).
   * **Reason for Ban:** Optional. Default reason:

     > "Banned using Panora Ban Manager by prrent"
3. **Confirm Ban**\
   Submit the modal to ban the user. This action **prevents them from rejoining** until manually unbanned.
