$setMessageVar[]

$setMessageVar stores a value persistently in the BDFD database under a message-scoped variable. The variable value is tied directly to a specific Discord message.

Syntax

bdfd

$setMessageVar[name;value] or $setMessageVar[name;value;Message ID]

When called with two arguments (name and value), it sets the variable for the message that triggered the current command or event. When a Message ID is provided, the variable is set for the specified message.

The scope is message, making it ideal for tracking message status, reaction roles, polls, click counters, and any metadata that should be attached to a particular message. This function does not return any output — use $getMessageVar to read the value. There is currently no dedicated resetter for message-scoped variables; use $setMessageVar with an empty value to clear it.

Examples

Mark Message as Starred

$setMessageVar[starred;true;$messageID]
$title[Message Starred ⭐]
$description[Message has been added to the starboard!]
$color[#FEE75C]
$sendMessage[]
