## The System
|
||||
The first thing you need to do to use PluralKit is to set up a system! Here is an example system, you can see this by running `pk;system exmpl` on discord!
|
||||
## The system
|
||||
The first thing you need to do to use PluralKit is to set up a system! Each account can have one system, but you can link one system to multiple accounts. To inspect a system, you can pull up its *system card*. Below is an example system with all options set, which you can also see by typing `pk;system exmpl` on Discord:
|
||||
|
||||
### Parts to the system
|
||||
These are the parts of the system, reading the card top to bottom left to right like a book
|
||||
1. System Name: The system name is at the top of the system card. On the example system it is **PluralKit Example System**
|
||||
2. Avatar: This is the system avatar, it is an image that you can put on the system card
|
||||
3. Fronters: This is who is currently fronting in the system. [It is toggleable](% link /guide#system-privacy%)
|
||||
4. Tag: This is the system tag, it will be placed after the name of members on proxied messages
|
||||
5. Members: This is a member count, you can use `pk;system list` to see a list of them
|
||||
6. Description: This is the system description, it is just whatever you wish to put on your system card
|
||||
7. System ID: This is the ID of the system
|
||||
8. Created On: This is the time and date the system was created on
|
||||

### Parts of the system
|

These are the parts of the system, reading the card top to bottom left to right like a book:
|
||||
1. **System name**: The system name is at the top of the system card. On the example system it is **PluralKit Example System**. System names are optional.
|
||||
2. **Avatar**: This is the system avatar, it is an image that you can put on the system card.
|
||||
3. **Fronters**: This shows who is currently registered as fronting using the [switch tracking commands](/guide#managing-switches). [It can be hidden.](/guide#system-privacy)
|
||||
4. **Tag**: This is the system tag, and it will be placed after the name of members on proxied messages.
|
||||
5. **Members**: This is a member count, and you can use `pk;system list` to see a list of the members.
|
||||
6. **Description**: This is the system description, and can be any text you wish to put on your system card.
|
||||
7. **System ID**: This is the auto-generated ID of the system. You can use this to refer to any system.
|
||||
8. **Created on**: This is the time and date the system was created on.
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating a system
|
||||
You need a system to start creating members, but luckily this is relatively simple! All you need to do is run `pk;system new [name]`. So if you wanted your system to be named "Boxes of Foxes" you would run the command `pk;system new Boxes of Foxes`! Super simple!
|
||||

### Parts to a member
|
||||
These are the parts of a member, reading the card top to bottom left to right like a book
|

1. Name and system: This is the name of the member, in this case Myriad, and the system they are part of in brackets, in this case the PluralKit example system
|
||||
2. Avatar: This is what image is used for proxy messages from this member
|

||||
6. Pronouns: This is the members pronouns
|
||||
7. Message count: This is the total number of messages this member has ever sent through proxies
|
||||
8. Proxy tags: This is a list of the members proxy tags. we will go more in depth into them in a bit
|
||||
9. Colour: This is the member's colour, it effects the sidebar of the card on the left. **It does not effect the proxy colour**
|
||||
10. Description: This is the member description, same as the system description you can put anything you'd like here
|

11. System ID: This is the ID of the system this member is part of, in this case it is the ID for the PluralKit Example System
|
||||
12. Member ID: This is the ID for the member
|
||||
13. Creation on: This is the date and time the member was created
|
||||
These are the parts of a member, reading the card top to bottom left to right like a book:
|
||||
1. **Name and system**: This is the name of the member, in this case "Myriad", and the system they are part of in brackets, in this case the "PluralKit Example System".
|
||||
2. **Avatar**: This is the image that's used for proxying messages from this member.
|
||||
3. **Display name**: This is shown in proxy messages on all servers in place of their name if it is set.
|
||||
4. **Server nickname**: This is like display name, but set for specific servers (in this case the PluralKit support server).
|
||||
5. **Birthdate**: This is the member's set birthday, it can be with or without the year.

6. **Pronouns**: This is the member's pronouns. It's a free text entry field, so you can put anything you'd like.
|
||||
7. **Message count**: This is the total number of messages this member has ever sent through proxies.

|
||||
10. **Description**: This is the member description. Similar to the system description, you can put anything you'd like here.
|
||||
11. **System ID**: This is the ID of the system this member is part of. In this case it's the ID for the PluralKit Example System we saw above.
|
||||
12. **Member ID**: This is the auto-generated ID for the member. You can always use this ID to refer to a specific member, even if the name contains hard-to-type characters.
|
||||
13. **Created on**: This is the date and time the member was created.
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating a member
|
||||
This is just as easy as creating a system, but there are a few more things you will want to do immediately after! First you run `pk;member new [name]`, so if you want to create a member named Myriad, you would run `pk;member new Myriad`.
|
||||
Next, for proxying later, you will want to set an avatar for your new member! This is done simply by using `pk;member [member] avatar [link to avatar]`. For example,
|
||||
This is just as easy as creating a system, but there are a few more things you will want to do immediately after. First you run `pk;member new <name>`, so if you want to create a member named Myriad, you would run `pk;member new Myriad`.
|
||||
Next, for proxying later, you will want to set an avatar for your new member! This is done simply by using `pk;member <member> avatar <link to avatar>`. For example,
|
||||
```
|
||||
pk;member Myriad avatar {{ site.url }}{% link /assets/myriad.png%}
|
||||
pk;member Myriad avatar http://pluralkit.me/assets/myriad.png
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For more info on what you can do with members check out [the member management section](/guide#member-management)
|
||||
You can also leave out the image link, and instead attach an image with the command. That'll work too!

## Proxies
|
||||
Proxies are probably the most important part of PluralKit, they are literally what the bot was made for.

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Parts to a proxy message
|
||||
1. The Name: This is the members name, display name, or server nickname, depending on the highest priority (Server nickname is higher then display name which is higher then name)
|
||||
2. The tag: If a system tag is set, that is what will appear right after the name
|
||||
3. The Bot Badge: All proxies have this due to how the proxy service works
|
||||
3. The message: What you intended to send
|
||||
1. **The name**: This is the member's name, display name, or server nickname, depending on what's set (server nickname overrides display name, which overrides the normal name). In this case, it's **Myriad "Big Boss" Kit**.
|
||||
2. **The system tag**: If a system tag is set, this will will appear right after the name. In this case, it's **\| PluralKit 🦊**.
|
||||
3. **The BOT badge**: All proxies have this due to how the proxy service works. It's not possible to remove.
|
||||
3. **The message**: The message you proxied through the bot - this is what was on the "inside" of the proxy tags, which we will explain below.
|
||||
|
||||
### Parts to a proxy tag
|
||||
A proxy tag is what tells PluralKit how to know to proxy a member. It looks like this:

|
||||
pretextpost
|
||||
```
|
||||
and has 3 parts.
|
||||
1. Prefix: In this case, `pre`. This tells PluralKit what to look for at the **start** of the message
|
||||
2. Separator: This is always the word `text`. It tells PluralKit where the prefix ends and the suffix
|
||||
3. Suffix: In this case, `post`. This tells PluralKit to what to look for at the **end** of a message
|
||||
1. **Prefix**: In this case, `pre`. This tells PluralKit what to look for at the **start** of the message
|
||||
2. **Separator**: This is always the word `text`, all-lowercase. It tells PluralKit where the prefix ends and the suffix starts.
|
||||
3. **Suffix**: In this case, `post`. This tells PluralKit to what to look for at the **end** of a message
|
||||
|
||||
You can imagine that this is an "example proxy", where the intended message is the word `text`.
|
||||
|
||||
In this example, typing a message such as
|
||||
```
|
||||
pre This is an example message post
|
||||
```
|
||||
would result in the message being proxied
|
||||
would result in the message "This is an example message" being proxied.
|

|
||||
### Setting a proxy tag
|
||||
To set a proxy tag you need to know 3 things. The member you wish to set the tags for, the prefix for the tag, and the suffix for the tag.

### Reactions
|

When you come across a proxied message, or you have proxied a message, there are a few handy reactions you can add to the message for some more functionality!

❌: This reaction will cause the message to be deleted but only if you are using the account that sent the message
