#magento IRC FAQ |
MagePie is the FAQ Bot (=Program) on #magento.
She can answer simple FAQ‘s if queried correctly.
On this page I would like to post the contents of the faq database as a working base.
Bot Syntax |
Simply type one of the following commands in the #magento channel.
| ?faq-help | Display basic commands to access the faq database |
| ? keyword | Query the faq database for keyword (note the space between the ? and the keyword!) |
| ?faq nick keyword | Query for keyword and send the results to nick |
Authorized FAQ managers can also use the following commands:
| ?addword keyword|Fact | Add the fact to the faq database under keyword (;; for newline, max 2 lines possible) |
| ?modify keyword|Fact | Change the fact connected with keyword (;; for newline, max 2 lines possible) |
| ?delword keyword | Remove keyword from the faq database |
| ?close-faq | Close the faq database. No one will be able to query it |
| ?open-faq | Re-Open the faq database if it is closed |
