Recommended settings

To get the most out of your membership, we recommend enabling a few settings once you've activated Premium.

You can use the /settings overview command to view your current settings.

Temporary attendee roles

Apollo can be configured to assign a temporary role to attendees, making it possible to message attendees with a single mention.

Apollo will also use temporary attendee roles for event reminders, removing the need to mention every attendee individually.

Temporary attendee roles can be enabled with the /settings temp_roles command.

info

As temporary attendee roles aren't removed until the event is deleted, we also recommend enabling /settings auto_delete to clean up old events.

Automatic thread joining

When automatic thread joining is enabled, Apollo will add and remove attendees from the thread associated with the event. This is a great way to provide a text channel to discuss upcoming events with other attendees.

Automatic thread joining can be enabled with the /settings auto_join_threads command.

We also recommend enabling /settings event_threads to ensure events are always created with a thread, as Apollo won't attempt to add an attendee to a non-existent event thread.

Private threads

Private threads are more of a personal preference, but automatic thread joining pairs excellently with private threads.

Apollo ensures that only legitmate event attendees are added to the private thread; great if you're planning anything sensitive.

Private event threads can be enabled with the /settings private_threads command.
