Message Counter

In this page, you will learn the detailed usage of the message counting feature.

What is message counter?

This module of apollo lets users track messages on their discord server. Apollo has a very customisable and advanced message tracking system. This module in any way does not track or store your messages in a database. You can also disable this command for yourself if you wish your messages not be counted by apollo.

Subcommands for the Message Counter Module

a!messages (/messages)

This command shows the number of messages that has been sent by the user. You can also use this command to check the message sent by other users in the server too by using a!messages {@user} or by using a!messages {userID}.

Admin commands for the Claimtime Module

a!messages-admin <enable [or] disable> / /messages-admin <enable [or] disable>

This command helps to enable or disable the message counting feature in your server, and as mentioned above by default the message counter is off for the given server.

Blacklist Mode

In this mode, Apollo will blacklist the given channels where the messages will not be counted. But the messages in all the other channels will be counted as usual.

select the dropdown and choose blacklist to enter blacklist mode

In the example shown above, we have set Apollo to ignore (blacklist) the #rules channel and any messages sent in that channel will not be counted. To add a channel to blacklist, just use the dropdown menu to select it.

Whitelist Mode

In this mode, Apollo will whitelist the given channels where the messages will be counted. But the messages in all the other channels will not be counted.

select the dropdown and choose blacklist to enter blacklist mode

In the example shown above, we have set Apollo to only count from the #general channel and any messages sent in that channel only be counted. To add a channel to whitelist, just use the dropdown menu to select it.

You can add multiple channels to the blacklist or the whitelist.
