# Greet

## What are greet messages?

> Greet messages enable you to set up messages when a user joins your server. Apollo has a very customizable greeting system, with multiple features to help the user make a greet message of their own choice. The bot also provides some variables you can use to customise your greet message even more. 

{% hint style="info" %}
Greet module is disabled by default. Run `a!greet toggle`/ `/greet toggle`to enable it.
{% endhint %}

## Sub commands for the Greeter Module

### `a!greet toggle`

> This command either enables or disables greet messages. To enable or disable greet throughout the server just use `a!greet toggle`or `/greet toggle`.

### `a!greet message`

> This command sets the message to be used when greeting. You can put anything here and get creative by using apollo's various variables. You can set your custom message buy using **a!greet message \<message>**.
