Using Placeholders
When creating or editing messages with Bluetick, you can use placeholders or variables that will be replaced with actual values when the response is triggered.
What are Placeholders?
Placeholders are special codes that you can include in your messages to represent dynamic values that will be replaced when the bot sends the message. For example, when setting up a welcome message, you might use the {user} placeholder to represent the name of the new member joining the server.
How to Use Placeholders
To use a placeholder, simply include the placeholder code surrounded by curly braces {} in your message text. When the bot sends the message, it will replace the placeholder with the appropriate value.
For example, if you want to set up a welcome message that mentions the new user, you could use the following message:
Welcome {user} to our server!
When a new user joins the server, Bluetick will replace {user} with the mention or {username} with the actual username of the new member
Available Placeholders
The available placeholders vary depending on the feature or context you're using them in. When creating or editing a message, Bluetick will provide a list of available placeholders and their descriptions.
Here are some common placeholders you might encounter:
{user}or{username}: The username or mention of a user.{everyone}: will be replaced with@everyone{here}: will be replaced with@here{streamer}: The display name of a Twitch streamer.{streamTitle}: The title of a Twitch stream.
Example Use Cases
- Welcome Messages: Use
{user}or{username}to mention the new member. - Ticket System: Use
{id}or{username}to name tickets based on the ticket ID or the username of the user created them. - Twitch Notifications: Use
{streamer}and{streamTitle}to include the streamer's name and the new stream's title.
Remember, when you're creating or editing messages in Bluetick, the available placeholders will be listed and explained, so you can easily incorporate them into your messages.
