Hugging users enables a chat-triggered !hug command. When a member types !hug @target, the bot posts the configured message (with an image, mention, or embed) in response. Open Dashboard → Hugging Users.
How this message is delivered. It posts through a bot-owned webhook using the bot’s own name and avatar, so it looks exactly like a normal bot message. The bot needs Manage Webhooks in the target channel; without it the message is posted normally instead, so nothing is ever lost.

​
How it works

  • !hug @target — the bot responds in the current channel.
  • !hug @target #channel — the bot posts the response in #channel instead.
The #channel argument is optional. Without it the response stays where the command was used.

​
Settings

​
Core

​
toggle
Master switch for the hug command.
​
visual editor
The response posted when the command runs, built in the visual message editor — type inside a live Discord preview, toggle Embed on/off, and use placeholders like {user} (the one hugging), {target} (the one being hugged), {server}, {user_name} and {target_name}. See placeholders. For the image, the picker offers your uploaded image library (pick a specific image, or tick Random pick to use a fresh random image from that category every time), a random Picsum image, or any image URL. It comes pre-filled; Restore default in the toolbar brings the original back.
​
toggle
Removes the member’s !hug command message after the bot replies.
To mention (ping) the person being hugged, put {target} in the Message field (the line above the embed) — a mention there notifies them, unlike one inside the embed.

​
Cooldown

​
toggle
Adds a delay between uses to prevent spam. When off, the command has no wait.
​
number, 5 to 60
How long the cooldown lasts.
​
radio
  • Per user — each user has their own cooldown timer.
  • Global — one shared cooldown for the whole server.

​
Command logging

​
toggle
When on, every !hug use is logged as an embed in the chosen log channel, showing who hugged whom and in which channel.
​
channel picker
Destination for log entries.
