Custom Commands

Accepted Answer

What're Custom Commands?

Circle's Custom Command plugin allows you to be the developer and create just about any command you want; from a simple message response, to multi-channel automation, to bulk-command usage, Circle can do it all.

Getting Started

Navigate to your server's dashboard.
Select the Custom Commands plugin. If it's not enabled, you'll need to enable it.
Follow the instructions below.

Command Variables

Click here to view the command variables page!

||| Command variables will bypass user restriction, thus making it able for anybody to use that command regardless of what permissions they have as Circle is looking for the Custom Command call only. You will need to utilize the required roles option to secure your commands when applicable.

Creating a Custom Command

Click the CREATE NEW button on the top right.
Complete the prompt that appears. (The Command Name and Command Response fields are required, everything else optional.)

Custom Commands have varying complexity and difficulty, all will be explained further in this article.

When anyone runs c!pong, Circle will reply with PING!!!

This command will say someone was banned, but not actually ban them.
