$msg

The $msg function is a powerful and compact tool that lets you extract a wide range of information from Discord messages.

Usage: $msg[channelid;messageid;property]

To use the $msg function, you need to provide the channel ID, the message ID, and the specific property you want to retrieve. Let's break it down:

  • channelid: The ID of the channel where the message is located.
  • messageid: The ID of the message you want to get information from.
  • property: The specific piece of information you want to retrieve from the message.

Example:

$msg[1234567890;9876543210;authorname]

This would return the author's name of the message with the ID 9876543210 located in the channel with the ID 1234567890.
