Create custom events for when a user joins, a channel is created, etc.
Last updated
TheCustom Eventsmodule is where you can trigger actions based on things that occur in your server, on a timed basis, from an IFTTT trigger, and even from a BotGhost webhook.
Getting Started
Located in the Custom Events module, you will see the "New Custom Event" section, click the "Custom Event Builder" yellow block to create a new event.
2. Select a custom event from the options currently provided.
These options will activate when a condition is met. For instance, if a user joins your server, you can then have the bot greet them, like the announcement module, and DM them.
3. Under the yellow main block, click on it and set an "Event Nickname". This will be shown in the dashboard if you are ever looking to edit a certain event. You can name it to whatever you'd want.
Blocks
In the custom event builder, the blocks you can use vary to the custom command builder. While creating an event, you cannot use options or certain conditions. As an example, you cannot use a "User Condition" in a timed event as the event has no user trigger. You can however use it if you have at least one button or select menu in your event.
