What are Recurring Reminders?

Recurring Reminders, also known as "Auto Message", allows you to make Circle Premium automatically send messages into your channels on an interval.

Getting Started

1. Navigate to your server's dashboard.
2. Select the Recurring Reminders plugin. If it's not enabled, you'll need to enable it.
3. Follow the instructions below.

Creating a Recurring Reminder

1. Click the "CREATE NEW" button on the top right.
2. Enter a name for the reminder into the "Reminder Name" box. This name is what will appear in your Recurring Reminders list on the plugin page, so choose a name which you'll remember so you'll know which reminder you want to edit every time you visit the plugin page, without having to look through your reminders for the one you're looking for.
3. Click the "Reminder Channel" drop-down and choose a channel that your message should be sent into.
4. Type your message into the "Reminder Message" box. This is the message which will be sent into your reminder channel on your chosen interval. You can even make Circle send an embed, just click the "Edit Embed" button to open the embed editor.
5. Optionally, you can also tick the "Auto-delete old reminder message when sending a new one" option, which will make it so whenever Circle sends a recurring reminder, the previous reminder that got sent will get deleted. This is helpful if you have a short reminder interval, but don't want to risk Circle clogging up any of your channels.

After you've done all this, the rest is optional. You can save your reminder and Circle will send your reminder into your reminder channel every hour (default settings). If you want to change how often Circle sends your reminder, keep reading!

Recurring Reminder Intervals

Recurring Reminders are just reminders, but automatically re-triggered on an interval, hence the name. Whenever you create a new recurring reminder, Circle will send the recurring reminder every hour by default, but you are able to change that.

1. If you're already in the process of creating a recurring reminder, scroll down to the bottom of the popup and you'll see some more options, as shown in the below screenshot. If you've already created a recurring reminder and would like to change the interval, just click "Edit" on the reminder on the Recurring Reminders plugin page, and then scroll down to see the interval settings.
2. In the "Interval" box, enter the number for how often you want your message to send.
3. Click the "Unit" drop-down and choose what unit you've entered into the "Interval" box. For example, if you typed 2 into the "Interval" box and you want your reminder to send every 2 hours, then click the "hour(s)" option.
4. Click the "On Days" drop-down and choose what days you want your recurring reminder to be active. So if you want your reminder to be sent every 2 hours but only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, then select the "Tuesday" and "Thursday" options. If you want your reminder to be sent every 2 hours, 7 days a week, then just select all days from the drop-down!

Advanced: Set First Post Time

If you want to be extra fancy and set up your recurring reminder early, and don't want it to send until a specific time and date, then you can do just that! Click on the "Date and Time" box underneath where it says "Set First Post Time". A calendar will pop up, allowing you to pick the date of when your recurring reminder will first be sent. Pick a date, and then a clock will appear so that you can pick the time.

Enabling/Disabling a Recurring Reminder

Recurring Reminders are enabled by default, when you first create them. However, if you want to simply disable one temporarily, you don't need to delete it! You can easily disable it so that you can re-enable it later on when you want it to be active again. Follow the below gif to find out how to enable or disable a Recurring Reminder.

When a recurring reminder is disabled, the reminder will cease being sent, until it's re-enabled again.
