Yes, users should be able to replay the discobot introduction whenever they want, even if they have the badge. There are no limits!
Is the only way to do that by having the user run @discobot start new user? Is there any way for the admin to trigger it for the user?
No, not that I know of. My question is why canât your users trigger it themselves, it clearly explains itself and what it does whenever a new user joins.
Yes, if they havenât completed the tutorial they can just do @discobot startover or reply to it.
Nothing wrong with having the user trigger it themselves. Just wondered what my options were. I have some users who arenât very tech savvy so the less I require them to do the better ![]()
I understand, a couple years ago I wasnât really tech savvy either, I just went with the flow ![]()
The more you learn the better!
