### Global Server Configs

* Click your server in the list and click *Edit Settings* under *General Settings*.
* Change what you want, like:

### Master Channel Configs

* Or go to the [dashboard](https://dashboard.empymanager.com/guilds), select your server and create your Master Channel there

To edit your Master Channel:

* Go to the [dashboard](https://dashboard.empymanager.com/guilds)
* Click your server in the list and select your *Master Channel* in the main page.
* Change what you want, like:

![The name of the created channels](https://3688094891-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MUCTPyd93tnQv1IRqMX%2Fuploads%2F4A1NSBoScLesoU3J0woE%2Fvoice-channel-names.png?alt=media\&token=c3803890-c9a6-44ba-b056-73b35653bc79) ![What the channel owner should be able to do](https://3688094891-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MUCTPyd93tnQv1IRqMX%2Fuploads%2Fa3xntCkUVkPGiBiCGKSc%2Fpermissions.png?alt=media\&token=eeedd4b3-51d2-4c39-84d9-ebd8b540ff92)
