Poke User

The Poke User context menu command allows users to send a quick notification to another user, inviting them to join their current voice channel. This feature is ideal for bringing friends or teammates into a conversation or gaming session without needing to type out an invite message manually.

Purpose

  • Quickly notify a user to join your voice channel.
  • Automatically generates a one-time invite link for the channel to make joining easy.

How It Works

When you use the Poke User command:

  1. Dollar checks if you are in a voice channel.
  2. If you are in a voice channel:
    • The bot sends an ephemeral confirmation message to you.
    • It generates a one-time invite link for your voice channel.
    • The target user receives a direct message with your request and the invite link.
  3. If you are not in a voice channel:
    • The bot sends an ephemeral message informing you that you need to join a voice channel first.

Usage

  1. Right-Click on a User: Find the user you want to poke.
  2. Navigate to Apps > Poke User: Access the context menu command.
  3. Result: The target user receives a direct message with an invite to your voice channel.

Example

  • Scenario: User "Alex" is in a voice channel and wants to invite "Jordan."
  • Action: Alex right-clicks on Jordan's name, selects Apps > Poke User.
  • Outcome:
    • Alex sees a confirmation: "Poking Jordan to join your voice channel!"
    • Jordan receives a DM: "Yo, Alex wants you to join their voice channel in MyServer! [Invite Link]"

Important Notes

  • The command can only be used if you are currently in a voice channel.
  • The invite link is a one-time use and expires after it is used.
  • Users who are poked receive a clear, friendly message that includes the server name and channel invite.

The Poke User command is a convenient way to connect with others in your server, ensuring seamless collaboration and communication in voice channels.
