A Discord reminder bot
/remind with how long and what about sets a reminder. When the time comes, the bot sends it by direct message, or posts it in the channel if asked. Members can list their reminders and cancel any of them. It waits without a schedule, so it runs on the Free plan.
What it does
- A member runs /remind with how long and what about.
- The bot saves the reminder and tells them privately when it will arrive.
- The flow waits until then. A wait of days carries on after the bot restarts.
- If the reminder wasn't cancelled, the bot sends it. If the member's direct messages are closed, it posts in the channel instead.
Commands
/remindSets a reminder in 10m, 2h, 3d or any time up to 89 days. Set here to have it posted in the channel instead of sent privately.
/reminders listShows your reminders still to come.
/reminders cancelCancels one of yours by its number.
Before you add it
- Nothing. Add the bot and /remind works straight away.
How adding it works
Press Add to my server and Buildcord asks you to sign up or sign in. It then makes a new bot from this template, with every flow already drawn. Paste your Discord bot token, add the bot to your server with the invite link and deploy. Nothing is final: the template is an ordinary bot you can open and change.
What you can change
- Change the limit of 25 reminders per member.
- Let moderators remind a whole role by adding a role option and mentioning it.
- Change how the reminder looks in the Embeds page.
Questions
How far ahead can a reminder be?
From 1 minute to 89 days, which is the longest a flow can wait.
Does it work if the bot restarts?
Yes. A waiting reminder is kept in storage, not in memory, so it still arrives after a restart or a new deploy.
