Hello

I have nightbot set up on my channel, I have searched online for an answer to this but am struggling,

how can I set it up, so if a chatter uses one of my commands, !bird for example, it posts the text for this command but on the back of that it posts another command called !bird2. so it shows both, I used alias thinking it would work, but it just calls the !bird2 command when using !bird.

Can it even be done?

Aliases are to be used if you want a command to pass some input to another command. You can't have two commands with their own responses where one command triggers another.

That said, you can use a custom API I made for sending multiple messages in a single command.

How would I use the API you mentioned to test it out?

I outlined how to use it right here:
