Create custom texts for users to use

You can use the command /alias to create custom texts for users to use.

• For example, you can create an alias to mention a subset of admins. Just create an alias with the format @admin1 @admin2 @admin3 and name it custom_admins: /alias set custom_admins @admin1 @admin2 @admin3. Then users can use the command !custom_admins to mention just those admins.

• You can also create an alias to simplify group rules, you can create an alias rules: /alias set rules 1. Do not spam. 2. Be nice. etc. Then users can use the command !rules to get the message.

• You can also create messages with variables. As variables can have multiple values, when formatting a text with a variable, the bot will choose a random value from the variable. For example, you can create a variable greetings with the values Hello, Hi, Hey, Good morning, Good afternoon, Good evening. Then you can create an alias greeting: /alias set greeting {greetings}!. Then users can use the command !greeting to get a random greeting.

• You can also create a variable with a single value to create a message that can be updated easily. For example, you can create a variable welcome with the value Welcome to the group!. Then you can create an alias welcome: /alias set welcome {welcome}. Then you can update the variable welcome to change the message.
