Bot Update

  1. If you have Auto-Moderation enabled and block a word, such as HATE, and a user sends separate messages to spell it out, the bot will now be smart enough to detect this, and kick/ban as appropriate. For instance, if a user says “H”, followed by “A”, “T”, then “E”, all in separate messages, the bot will recognize that they’re trying to say “HATE” and take action. This works for all blocked words.

  2. If the Bot sends a link to an image/GIF/website, the preview will properly render, just like when a user sends it. This allows you to easily include GIFs/photos in your bot’s Auto Responses, Scheduled Messages, etc.

  3. Our Bot page has been updated with documentation on getting started with building your own self-hosted bot, using our API/Webhooks: https://docs.minnit.chat/Bot

Enjoy!
