Custom Command

$pinMessage

Pins a message in a channel. This action requires the bot to have the "Manage Messages" permission in the target channel.

Functionality

The $pinMessage function allows you to pin either the message that triggered the command or a specific message by providing its channel and message IDs. Pinned messages appear at the top of the chat for easy reference.

Usage

There are two ways to use $pinMessage:

1. Pin the Command Message:

$pinMessage

This will pin the message that the command was used in. For example, if a user types !pin This is important! and the command includes $pinMessage, the message "This is important!" will be pinned.

2. Pin a Specific Message:

$pinMessage[channelID;messageID]
  • channelID: The ID of the channel containing the message you want to pin. You can usually get the channel ID by right-clicking on the channel in Discord (with Developer Mode enabled) and selecting "Copy ID".
  • messageID: The ID of the specific message you want to pin. You can usually get the message ID by right-clicking on the message in Discord (with Developer Mode enabled) and selecting "Copy ID".

Example:

To pin a message with the ID 123456789012345678 in the channel with the ID 987654321098765432, you would use:

$pinMessage[987654321098765432;123456789012345678]

Important: Ensure the bot has the necessary permissions ("Manage Messages") in the target channel to successfully pin messages.
