<p class="title">Create reminders via commands</p>
<p class="content">
You can create reminders with the <code>/remind</code> command.
<br>
Fill out the "time" and "content" fields. If you wish, press on "Optional" to view other options
for the reminder.
</p>
<p class="subtitle">Time</p>
<p class="content">
The bot will take a "best-guess" at what time you entered. It will favour UK date formats
over US date formats (MM/DD/YY) where possible.
<br>
You can also use <code>cron</code>-like syntax to specify the time. For example, using
<code>0 0 1 * *</code> will send the reminder at midnight on the first of the next month.
For more information on cron syntax, see <a href="https://crontab.guru/">crontab.guru</a>.
<br>
<strong>Cron syntax is not repeating</strong>. Please use the optional "interval" field to specify a repetition interval.
</p>
<p class="subtitle">Pings</p>
<p class="content">
Roles and users can be pinged by including their @ mention in the "content" field.
To ping a role, the role must be set as mentionable, and the bot must have permissions to mention the role.
<br>
Please note that when using the dashboard, roles can only be pinged in the "Content..." field and not the embed fields.

<p class="title">Create reminders via the dashboard</p>
<p class="content">
Reminders can also be created on the dashboard. The dashboard offers more options for configuring
reminders, and offers templates for quick recreation of reminders.

<p class="title">Custom formatting rules</p>
<p class="content">
Reminder content can be customized using formatting rules.
</p>
<p class="subtitle">timefrom</p>
<p class="content">
The <code>timefrom</code> formatting rule will display a formatted difference
between the time the reminder sends and a specified time.
<br>
For example, if the current time is 1755800000 (UNIX time), the format string
<code>&lt;&lt;timefrom:1755803600&gt;&gt;</code> would display "1 hour"
</p>
<p class="subtitle">timenow</p>
<p class="content">
The <code>timenow</code> formatting rule displays the current time or an offset
from the current time in a given timezone in a custom format.
<br>
For example, if the current time is 1755800000 (UNIX time), the format string
<code>&lt;&lt;timenow:UTC:%H:%M:%S&gt;&gt;</code> would display "18:13:20"
<br>
Optionally, an offset can be provided to display a time from your current time.
For example, if the current time is 1755800000 (UNIX time), the format string
<code>&lt;&lt;timenow+120:UTC:%H:%M:%S&gt;&gt;</code> would display "18:15:20",
or <code>&lt;&lt;timenow-120:UTC:%H:%M:%S&gt;&gt;</code> would display "18:11:20"
<br>
You can use this feature alongside Discord's timestamp formatting. The following
will show the text "in 2 minutes" for all users as a Discord timestamp:
<code>&lt;t:&lt;&lt;timenow+120:UTC:%s&gt;&gt;:R&gt;</code>
