## Channel Commands

In ChatChat, each channel can have its own commands. Those commands can be set when creating the channels in `plugins/ChatChat/channels.yml` under the toggle-command option.

{% hint style="danger" %}
To make sure channel commands are properly registered, restart the server after any modifications to them.
{% endhint %}

## Command Overriding

If by any chance there are other plugins taking over a command that you want ChatChat to use, or vice versa, you can select which one is going to be used in the `commands.yml` bukkit file.

**Example:**\
\
Let's say you have a plugin that takes over the /msg command and you want ChatChat to take over. You open the `commands.yml` file and add the following under the `aliases:` option:

```yaml
  msg:
  - chatchat:msg $1-
```

{% hint style="danger" %}
Restart the server after modifying the `commands.yml` file to make sure all changes are properly applied!
{% endhint %}
