$repliedMessageID

The $repliedMessageID function allows retrieving the source message ID when a user replies to a message with a command.

Syntax

$repliedMessageID

Parameters

No parameters.

Return Value

• Type: String (Snowflake ID)
• The ID of the message the user replied to.
• Empty string if the command was not triggered via reply.

Behavior

• Works when the user right-clicks → “Reply” on a message and types the command.
• Returns the ID of the original message, not the command message.
• Useful for contextual moderation commands.

Examples

Quote the replied message

$if[$repliedMessageID!=]
  $let[msg;$getMessage[$channelID;$repliedMessageID]]
  $title[📝 Reply to a message]
  $description[
  **Original author:** $userName[$messageAuthorID[$channelID;$repliedMessageID]]
  **Message:** $msg
  ]
  $sendMessage[]
$else
  $sendMessage[Please reply to a message to use this command.]
$endif

Moderation by reply

$if[$repliedMessageID!=]
  $let[author;$messageAuthorID[$channelID;$repliedMessageID]]
  $title[⚠️ Report]
  $description[
  **Reported message:** ||$getMessage[$channelID;$repliedMessageID]||
  **Author:** $userName[$author]
  **Reported by:** $userName[$authorID]
  ]
  $color[#ED4245]
  $sendMessage[$channelID[mod-logs]]
$else
  $sendMessage[Reply to a message to report it.]
$endif

Quote and delete

$if[$repliedMessageID!=]
  $let[msg;$getMessage[$channelID;$repliedMessageID]]
  $title[🗑️ Message deleted]
  $description[Message from **$userName[$messageAuthorID[$channelID;$repliedMessageID]]** deleted.\nContent: ||$msg||]
  $deleteMessage[$channelID;$repliedMessageID]
  $sendMessage[]
$endif

Notes

• Only works if the command is triggered via Discord reply.
• Returns an empty string in other cases (normal message, slash command, etc.).
• Convenient for contextual commands without having to manually provide an ID.
