whisper to users?
« on: March 06, 2016, 11:22:30 PM »
hello, I created a command which let users know since which date he is following the stream. but is it possible that the bot will whisper the info to the user and don't send it in the chat?

Yes, there is. Just add /w to the beginning of the command, and the bot will whisper it. :)

Yes, it is possible to do this.

1) Enable Whisper Interaction Within Deepbot

Config Tab -> Master Settings -> Scroll down and make sure that "Enable Whisper Interaction (Bot)" is ticked.

2) Set up your command so that it can whisper the user that calls the command

With your particular case, the message you would send would be similar to what's outlined below;

Code: [Select]
/w @user@ You have been following since @followdate@
You can also make it so that the command can only be accessed by whispering the bot by unticking "Channel Messages" in the command editor. The same applies if you don't want the command to be accessed via whispers

Please note that I've been hearing on the grapevine that bots that excessively whispering have been getting shadowbanned by Twitch due to some system they have in place. This was to combat the spam bots you have probably seen around but can also take out some innocents in the crossfire.

Thanks,
