FAQ

How to customize the bot's scheduled messaging time?

To customize the time when the bot sends Discord messages, you can modify the value in the cron expression ("37 * * * *"). This expression means the bot sends messages at the 37th minute of every hour.

    schedule_cron_job(String::from("37 * * * *"), keyword, callback).await;

To adjust the timing, you can change the number 37 to your desired minute. For example, if you want the messages to be sent at the 15th minute of every hour, you can modify the expression to be ("15 * * * *").

By customizing the cron expression, you can set the desired timing for the bot to send Discord messages.
