$useChannel

The function $useChannel[] changes the channel context for the rest of the command execution. All functions that interact with “the current channel” (like $sendMessage) will then use the specified channel.

Syntax

$useChannel[channelID]

Parameters

Parameter	Description
channelID	The ID of the target channel.

Return Value

None. The context is modified.

Behavior

• Changes the current channel for the entire remainder of the command.
• Affects $sendMessage, $title, $description, etc.
• The change is local to the current command execution.

Examples

Redirect Logs

$let[logChannel;123456789012345678]
$useChannel[$logChannel]
$title[📋 Command Log]
$description[
**User:** $username
**Command:** $message
**Channel:** <#$channelID>
**Date:** $day/$month/$year
]
$color[#5865F2]
$sendMessage[]

Send a Cross Notification

$useChannel[$dmChannelID[$authorID]]
$sendMessage[Your ticket has been created! A staff member will contact you soon.]

Response in an Announcement Channel

$if[$hasPerms[$authorID;Administrator]==true]
  $useChannel[123456789]
  $sendMessage[@everyone Important announcement: $noMentionMessage]
$else
  $sendMessage[Permission denied.]
$endif

Notes

• $channelSendMessage[] is often safer for one-off sends without changing the entire context.
• Use $useChannel[] when several functions need to execute in the same target channel.
• The original channel is “forgotten” for the rest of the command.
