v2.92.0 is live now

• Added randNorm function

randNorm [mean] [stddev] returns a random decimal number from a normal (Gaussian) distribution. Unlike randInt, where every value is equally likely, results cluster around mean, and about 68% of them fall within one stddev of it. mean defaults to 0 and stddev to 1.

This is useful for results that should usually be average but sometimes extreme, such as damage rolls, stats, or a fishing game.

{{ $weight := randNorm 5 1.5 }}
{{ if lt $weight 0.5 }}{{ $weight = 0.5 }}{{ end }}
{{ .User.Username }} caught a fish weighing {{ printf "%.2f" $weight }} kg!

• Added a separate lockThread function, it just locks a thread. It's a shorthand for closeThread <thread> true for now, close thread in future will the lock argument to true will lock and close thread, right now it just locks the thread.

  {{ if not .Channel.IsThread }}
  This command only works inside a thread.
  {{ return }}
  {{ end }}
  {{ lockThread .Channel.ID }}
  Thread locked by {{ .User.Mention }}.
  

• Added .SlashID and .SlashMention for slash command custom commands

Custom commands with the Slash Command trigger can now use .SlashID, the Discord ID of the slash command, and .SlashMention, a clickable mention of the command in the form </name:id>. Members can click the mention to start typing the command.

{{ sendMessage nil (cembed
  "title" "Suggestion received!"
  "description" (print "Thanks, " .User.Mention "! Have another idea? Use " .SlashMention " again.")
) }}

• Also contains some Performance and Rate Limit related improvments.

v2.91.0 is live now!

• Added support for Ban Appeals.

  • Ban Appeals go to your mod-log channel, a user can appeal a ban from a link that takes them to Yagpdb.xyz, the appeal link is available in {{.AppealLink}} in the ban template if ban appeals are enabled.
  • Premium servers can setup a custom ban appeal channel and enable ban appeal button, which lets a user to submit an appeal directly using a modal (Though if a user doesn't share a server with the bot, buttons in DMs don't work)

v2.89.0 is live now

• Message Creator now has toggles to send role, everyone, and here mentions.

• ComponentBuilder can now be saved to DB correctly. After you save it with dbSet and when you get it back using dbGet it should be parsed back as a ComponentBuilder.

Example

{{ dbSet 0 "cb1" (componentBuilder "text" "hello" "separator" true "text" "bye") }}
{{ $b := (dbGet 0 "cb1").Value }}
{{ sendMessage nil $b }}

• You can make a ComponentBuilder from an existing cv2 message by passing the message as the only argument to ComponentBuilder, for non cv2 messages, this will throw an error.

Example

{{ $cb := componentBuilder (getMessage nil message_id_here) }}
{{ $cb.Add "text" "appended" }}
{{ sendMessage nil $cb }}

v2.88.1 is live now

• DMs now allow CV2 messages and link buttons, you cannot send any interactive components in DMs

Important For Self-Hosters

• A guide for applying to discord for privileged intents has been added at https://github.com/botlabs-gg/yagpdb/tree/master/docs along with a template for privacy policy and terms of use, these should only be used as templates and you should still review everything and take your own set of screenshots and make a video of features to apply for the privileged intents, you're responsible for the submission for getting approved or rejected, the above is purely for helping you fill the form.

• Prefix commands have been disabled by default, so is username tracking, message log purge is set to 30 days by default, if your bot needs privileged intents, these have to stay disabled, please read breaking_changes to modify this behaviour.

v2.87.0 is live now

• Fixed a bug with /customcommands eval, where if the provided template had no response it would show that the bot didn't respond.
• Increased max query length for dictionary command to 128, and it should now also look up other languages, because you know weird words like Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz exist.
• RSS feeds should now be more tolerant and will only be disabled if they fail continuously for 24 hours, and they will show the reason for why they were disabled on the dashboard, except for errors like 403, 401, 402, 451, 404 or any other restricted access http codes, in that case they will be disabled immediately
• Some performance improvements to the bots discord gateway connection
• Fixed a panic for a rare scenario where a command was executed in a thread but the bot somehow didn't have the parent channel in it's memory.
