Announcement commands

Six commands under /announce. Administrator level throughout.


/announce create#

Schedule a recurring message.

Option Required Description
channel yes Where to post
interval yes How often, e.g. 6h, 1d, 3d
message yes The text, max 1900 characters
time no Fixed time of day, 24h format, e.g. 09:00
embed no Post as an embed instead of plain text

Ledra needs: Send Messages in the target channel

/announce create channel:#general interval:6h message:Read the rules in #rules!
/announce create channel:#news interval:1d time:09:00 message:Good morning!

With time set, interval must be whole days (1d, 3d, 1w). "Every 6 hours at 09:00" is refused rather than reinterpreted.

The time of day follows your server time zone. Without one, it means UTC — and the reply warns you.

Limits: 5 announcements per server, interval between 15 minutes and 365 days.


/announce list#

Every scheduled announcement: ID, channel, schedule, enabled or paused, the next post time, and a preview of the text.


/announce remove#

Option Required Description
announcement_id yes The ID from /announce list

Permanent.


/announce toggle#

Pause or resume.

Option Required Description
announcement_id yes The ID from /announce list
enabled yes Should it be posted?
/announce toggle announcement_id:2 enabled:false

Resuming recalculates the next slot from now, so it does not fire instantly.


/announce test#

Post an announcement once, immediately.

Option Required Description
announcement_id yes The ID from /announce list

Does not move the schedule — a free preview. If the channel is gone or unwritable, you are told so.


/announce placeholders#

The five placeholders announcements support:

Placeholder Result
{guild} Server name
{guild.id} Server ID
{membercount} Current member count
{membercount.ordinal} Member count as 501st
{owner} Mention of the server owner

{user} and the other member placeholders do not apply — an announcement is not addressed to anyone, so they are left in the text unchanged.
