Bind pub with more than one word

[silentziler]

So I may be a newb, ive done research and have tried a few things already to no avail.

I would like to have a 'bind pub' with two words for a trigger, it currently looks like this:

bind pub - "!nfl" get_sched

I would like to have it triggered with:

bind pub - "!nfl thurs" get_sched

thanks!

Go here:
http://www.eggheads.org/support/egghtml ... mands.html

and find:
bind pubm

and read about that one.

Experiment with something like:
bind pubm - "!nfl thurs*" get_sched

and see what happens.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for the suggestion.

So I tried what you recommended and the pubm doesn't seem to work.
I can type anything after !nfl and still trigger the command.

I might have to find a work around.

pubm does work just fine:)

You must restart the bot to remove the previously set binds you had.
Rehashing will not clear them.

I forgot to mention this. Sorry.
Spike^^ intuitively realized the problem.

Spike^^: Thanks for jumping in, so silentziler didn't have to wait for me to re-appear here.

silentziler: In the partyline, learn to use the
.binds
command. It will list current binds. You can search with it also.
Using this exercise as an example, do:
.binds *nfl*
and all binds with "nfl" in them will be listed. If I had remembered to advise you to do this, and if you had simply rehashed, you would have created a new bind, and both it and the original bind would be listed - which is exactly what Spike^^ mentioned.

After you .restart, take a moment and do .binds *nfl* , just to confirm that you have only one bind related to your current experiment.

Note: When listing binds, the report includes a Hit counter. Keep it in mind, as sometimes that too can be very useful info when figuring out where things are not going as expected.

Let us know how it goes.

Okay that did the trick!
It worked after I added the channel and restarted lol

Thanks guys!
