If a
lock icon appears next to a channel when selecting where NotifyMe should send notifications, the bot is missing one or more required permissions for that channel.
The channel cannot be selected until the required permissions have been granted.

If the channel is still locked after granting the required permissions, double-check that the permissions were given for the correct channel and that NotifyMe's role isn't being overridden by another permission.Feel free to reach out in our Support Server, and we'll be happy to help you.3.
