Slash Arguments

SlashTags support up to 10 arguments with multiple types, allowing for flexibility and advanced user input handling.

Adding Arguments

Similar to the initial slash tag creation process, adding arguments to slash tags follows an interactive setup. You can either choose to add arguments while creating a slash tag, or by editing them later with [p]slashtag edit arguments <slashtag>.

Argument Usage

A slash tag’s argument can be accessed in its tagscript through the use of a variable block. For example, if a slash tag has an argument named member, it could be accessed with {member}.

Additionally, slash tag arguments of the channel, role, or user type support attribute access through the block parameter such as {member(nick)}.
