Timed messages

Updated Jun 4, 2026 1 min read

Timed messages let your bot post a message automatically on a repeating schedule — perfect for rules reminders, promos, or "type !commands for help".

Set them up

Open the Timed Messages manager, add a row for each message, and pick how often it repeats from the Interval dropdown (anything from 30 seconds up to 24 hours). Add as many as you like, then Save.

Good to know

  • The shortest interval is 30 seconds — don't set them too frequent or chat gets spammy.
  • Messages support the usual variables (e.g. {online}, {chat}).
  • Empty rows are skipped. Stagger intervals (e.g. 5 min, 7 min, 11 min) so two messages don't always fire together.
  • If your timed messages aren't posting, make sure the feature is enabled for your bot — if it stays off, open a support ticket.
