Getting Started
To get started, simply run the /setup
command using a channel that you want QOTD Bot to automatically post cards in. If you don’t already have a channel, please create one first.
The setup process will guide you through the settings needed to get started. Simply follow the prompts and enter responses where appropriate.
Cards and Decks
What are Cards?
Cards are the items being posted in the channel. These could be questions, facts, trivia, quotes, or whatever you’d like.
Cards can be created in 2 different ways:
- Creating cards with the
/card add
command will directly add new cards to a deck. - Suggesting cards with the
/suggest new
command will add the card to the channel’s suggestions. These will need to be approved by staff before they are added to a deck.
What are Decks?
Decks are a group of cards, and all cards must be part of a deck. They help to organize cards into different categories, or with different settings, within the same channel.
For example, you might have separate decks for Would You Rather
, Video Game Questions
, and Member Suggestions
all under the same #question-of-the-day
channel.
You can create new decks with the /deck new
command.
Decks can also be prioritized to determine which cards are posted first. For example, you might want to post any cards in the Member Suggestions
deck before posting Would You Rather
cards, so you can give Member Suggestions
a higher priority of 1
and Would You Rather
a lower priority of 2
. Decks with the same priority will be treated as if they were combined.
