Prefixed commands are disabled. Since 15 September 2026, YAGPDB no longer responds to built-in prefixed commands (the ones starting with -). Use discord's / (slash) command interface, or mention the bot, to run them instead: -help becomes /help or @YAGPDB help. Custom commands are not affected and keep working as they do today. This is being done to be in line with Discords message content access policy (permission to bots from discord to read messages) and to only use the access for features the bot genuinely needs it for ( e.g. moderation and custom commands).

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.

from prefixed commands ( in-built commands, not custom commands) will no longer work, and discords native / command interface and bots mention will be the only ways to use @YAGPDB.xyz#8760 in-built commands.

  • in-built commands will continue to work inside custom commands as they do via exec and execAdmin
  • Custom Commands will continue to work as they do currently.
  • For selfhosters an ENV config will be added to let them enable prefixed commands.

This is being done to be in line with Discords message content access policy ( permission to bots from discord to read message data) and to have genuine features to have access to the intent only ( For example moderation and custom commands).

v2.81.0 is live now!

  • Added support for subcommands in custom slash commands.

You can have upto 3 subcommands per slash command for free servers, and upto 10 with premium.

subcommands show up as different slash commands on discord, but on yag are a single command.

for a command that looks like this

parent  
   - subcommand1
          - [options] 
   - subcommand2
          - [options] 
   - subcommand3
          - [options] 

You can use an if else ladder like this, or any other way to check which subcommand is the trigger.

{{if eq .SubCommand "subcommand1"}}

{{else if eq .SubCommand "subcommand2"}}

{{else if eq .SubCommand "subcommand3"}}

{{end}}

Everything else is exactly the same as slash commands added earlier.
