An alias is your own name for a command. Use one to shorten a command you type often, or to save a whole command with its arguments behind a single word.

​
The two kinds

A shortcut for a command. !alias ban b makes !b @Someone Spamming run ban with whatever you type after it. A saved command. !alias bc = purge bots 100 makes !bc run that entire command, arguments included, every time.
​
Manage Server
Creates an alias, lists them, or removes them.
  • !alias ban b creates a shortcut for a command.
  • !alias bc = purge bots 100 saves a full command behind one word.
  • !alias list shows both kinds, grouped.
  • !alias remove b bc removes several at once.
​
Prefix command
Shows the aliases available in this server, both Bloom’s built-in ones and yours. Add a command name to see just that command’s. Aliases: als, ali. Any member can run it.

​
Rules

  • A shortcut cannot reuse an existing command’s name. Bloom refuses, because the real command would always win.
  • Each shortcut can only be defined once. Remove it before redefining it.
  • The command a full alias points at must exist when you create the alias.
  • Aliases apply to your server only.
Bloom already ships a short alias for most commands. Run !aliases ban before inventing your own to see what exists.

​
Troubleshooting

Bloom matches real command names before your aliases, so an alias that collides with a built-in name never fires. Run !aliases to see what is taken and pick a different word.
That word is already an alias here. Remove it first with !alias remove <word>, then create it again.
Confirm it is listed in !alias list, and that you can run the underlying command yourself. An alias never grants access you do not already have.
