Add an automatically updating message to a server channel, will be known as pins. Will support server overview, highest traffic areas and all event categories (featured, upcoming, now).

@MTCVTC Hey! This feature has rolled out and is currently being tested. Assuming you have the correct permissions in the Discord server, you should be able to use the /pin command.

SamNuttall commented 1 year ago

@MTCVTC Yes, the feature is currently avaliable on the feat-auto-msgs branch.

@MTCVTC Alfie uses custom emojis which are available in one of its servers, hence why the bot can use them elsewhere. When hosting the bot manually, these emojis cannot be accessed. I recommend using the official bot to overcome this.

If you insist on self hosting your own solution, the emoji required are provided in the source code and you can edit the emoji configuration here. Note that this file does contain a USE_EXCLUSIVE mode, which would disable the use of custom emojis but does not do anything at this time.

@MTCVTC I won't be providing detailed support for self hosting like I would if you were using the hosted version.

However, please make sure you are using the latest version of the branch. If this still happens and you believe this is a genuine bug after doing this, please create a new issue and I'll take a look at it.
