The move to slash commands

Hey Martine users!
It is a very important announce about some changes of Martine's (but also all public bots) commands usage, so please take the time reading it.

You might have heard of Discord's slash commands, but if you don't, it is a system that Discord built which makes all bots usable with a single prefix, which is /.
By April 2022, all public bots will be forced to switch to this system of commands. Martine already has a good amount of those commands converted to slash, but not all are available yet! Most should be available by April though, hopefully. In the meantime you should start using those, to get used to this new system!

Now you might say "but, when I type / in my server, I don't see anything but the default commands, why?":

• This can be that you need to re-invite Martine with allowing her to create slash commands in your server, here is a link https://invite.martinebot.com (opens in a new tab). You don't have to kick the bot to do that, just click on the link, select your server and authorize it, and that's it.
• Maybe your role does not have "Use Application Commands" permission, check that permission.

Some things to know:

• You cannot disable commands as of now. This is something that will be implemented a bit later.
• Some commands have a different name with slash. Like for example, all nsfw commands are in a single command now, it is /nsfw, on which you can write the category of your choice. I would recommend to take a look at all the slash commands that are available on Martine, so you can see the new names!

You will now see a message periodically on "normal" commands, to explain about slash commands, and make everyone use them instead of text commands, before the switch.
If you need further help, feel free to ask in #│support-old!
