This module requires a [Premium Subscription](https://botghost.com/docs/premium/premium-and-priority-hosting-plans#premium-plans) to function.
{% endhint %}

The [Sticky Messages](https://dashboard.botghost.com/dashboard/module/1acdd900-f547-481f-b1ef-725384b5884b/stickymessages) module allows you to send a message to a channel of your choice after a number of messages. This is great for highlighting important information or adding frequent reminders!&#x20;

## Settings

### Setup

Here you can configure all the settings for the sticky messages module from changing the actual message, the frequency and more.

#### **Manager Role**

In this dropdown, you can select a role to allow users with this role to add / remove messages set with the module.

#### **Default Sticky Message**

This field is where you can change the default message that's sent to the channel after a number of messages as defined in the module settings below.

#### **Repost Message Count**

In this field you can change how frequent the message is sent. The number that's input is the basis for how many messages until the sticky message is sent. The default value for this is set to 10 and the field only accepts integers.

#### **Show Author**

This toggle allows you to enable / disable the ability to show the sticky message author in the embed message. The author is the user who originally posted the sticky message and only works in embeds.

#### **Add Reactions**

With this toggle, you can enable / disable the option for the bot to add a specified or default reaction to the sticky message when it is sent.

#### **Reaction Emoji**

In this section, you can set the emoji that is added as a reaction to the sticky message, if the above toggle is enabled. You can use both custom emoji's or basic discord emoji's for this. You can find a guide [here](https://botghost.com/docs/getting-started/standard-practices/advanced-practices#how-can-i-get-a-custom-emojis-id) on how to get the ID and name of a custom emoji.
