### Command Override Implementation
The cog uses a clean override mechanism:
```python
async def _disable_core_commands(self):
"""Disable Red's built-in contact and dm commands."""
core_cog = self.bot.get_cog("Core")
commands_to_disable = ["contact", "dm"]
for cmd_name in commands_to_disable:
cmd = self.bot.get_command(cmd_name)
if cmd and cmd.cog_name == "Core":
cmd.enabled = False
```
### Known Limitations
- Users must be in the server to use contact (by design)
- DMs must be enabled for user to receive replies
- Maximum 25 categories (Discord dropdown limit)
- Thread cleanup runs every 5 minutes (configurable in code)
### Future Considerations
Potential features for future versions:
- Rate limiting
- Priority queues
- Auto-responses
- Ticket numbers
- Transcript generation
- Staff assignments
- Analytics

## Common Staff Workflows
### Handling a Support Request
1. **User sends:** `[p]contact I can't access my account`
2. **Message appears in category channel** with user info
3. **Staff investigates** the issue
4. **Staff replies:** `[p]dm @User We've reset your account, try logging in now`
5. **User receives** the DM reply
6. **All logged** in #support-logs (if configured)
### Blocking an Abusive User
```bash
# After receiving spam/abuse
[p]supportset block @SpamUser
# User can no longer contact support
# To unblock later:
[p]supportset unblock @SpamUser
```
### Checking Current Setup
```bash
# View all settings and categories
[p]supportset list
# This shows:
# - Enabled status
# - All categories and their channels
# - Current settings (anonymous, embeds, etc.)
# - Log channel
```
---
## Pro Tips
### 1. Category Strategy
- **Keep it simple** - Start with 2-3 categories
- **Clear names** - Use obvious category names
- **Good emojis** - Pick recognizable emojis that match the purpose
### 2. Greetings
- **Set expectations** - Mention response times
- **Be welcoming** - Friendly tone encourages good interactions
- **Be specific** - Different greetings for different categories
### 3. Settings
- **Anonymous mode** - Use for sensitive topics (reports, appeals)
- **Require category** - Enable for large servers with many categories
- **Show info** - Disable for anonymous support, enable for personal support
### 4. Logging
- **Always enable** - Helps track support quality and history
- **Separate channel** - Keep logs in admin-only channel
- **Review regularly** - Monitor for patterns and issues
---
## Troubleshooting
### Users can't contact support
```bash
# Check if enabled
[p]supportset list
# Enable if needed
[p]supportset enable
# Ensure category exists
[p]supportset addcategory general #support
```
### Messages not showing up
```bash
# Verify channel exists and bot has permission
[p]supportset list
# Update channel if needed
[p]supportset addcategory <name> #new-channel
```
### User blocked accidentally
```bash
[p]supportset unblock @User
```
---
## Migration from Red Built-in
If you're migrating from Red's built-in contact system:
1. **Load the cog:** `[p]load support`
2. **Set up categories:** Start with one category matching your old setup
3. **Test it:** Have staff test with `[p]contact` in DMs
4. **Announce to users:** Let them know about the new system
5. **The cog automatically overrides** the built-in commands
No data migration needed - this is a fresh start with better organization!

## Usage Examples
### Example 1: Simple Support Setup
Single category for all support:

[p]supportset enable
[p]supportset addcategory support #support-tickets General support
[p]supportset defaultcategory support
```
### Example 2: Multi-Category Setup
Different departments:
```
[p]supportset enable
[p]supportset addcategory general #general-support General questions
[p]supportset addcategory billing #billing Billing and payments
[p]supportset addcategory technical #tech-support Technical issues
[p]supportset addcategory reports #reports Report users or content
[p]supportset setemoji general 📝
[p]supportset setemoji billing 💳
[p]supportset setemoji technical 🔧
[p]supportset setemoji reports 🚨
[p]supportset requirecategory true
[p]supportset logchannel #support-logs
```
### Example 3: Anonymous Support
For servers that want anonymous staff replies:
```
[p]supportset enable
[p]supportset addcategory anonymous #anon-support Anonymous support
[p]supportset anonymous true
[p]supportset showinfo false
```
## How It Works
### User Experience
1. User sends `[p]contact <message>` in DMs
2. If multiple categories exist, they select one from a dropdown
3. Message is sent to the configured channel for that category
4. Staff can reply using `[p]dm <user> <message>`
5. User receives the reply in DMs
### Staff Experience
1. Support messages appear in category-specific channels
2. Each message shows user info, category, roles, join date
3. Staff reply with `[p]dm @user message`
4. All interactions are logged (if log channel is set)
5. Staff can block abusive users with control buttons
## Configuration Storage
- **Guild Settings**: Categories, channels, logging, options
- **User Settings**: Block status, category preferences, last contact time
## Comparison to Built-in Commands
| Feature | Red Built-in | Support Cog |
|---------|-------------|-------------|
| Basic contact/dm | ✅ | ✅ |
| Categories | ❌ | ✅ |
| Custom channels | ❌ | ✅ |
| Custom greetings | ❌ | ✅ |
| User blocking | ❌ | ✅ |
| Logging | Limited | ✅ Full |
| Embeds | Basic | ✅ Enhanced |
| Anonymous mode | ❌ | ✅ |
| Category emojis | ❌ | ✅ |
| Multi-server | Limited | ✅ Better |
## Tips
- **Use categories** to organize by department (billing, tech, general)
- **Set custom greetings** to set response time expectations
- **Enable logging** to keep track of all support interactions
- **Use anonymous mode** if staff prefer to keep names private
- **Block abusive users** to prevent spam

# Support Cog - Technical Documentation
## Command Override Mechanism
### How It Works
This cog replaces Red-DiscordBot's built-in `contact` and `dm` commands by disabling them when the cog loads and re-enabling them when it unloads.
### Implementation Details
#### On Load (`cog_load`)
```python
async def _disable_core_commands(self):
"""Disable Red's built-in contact and dm commands."""
core_cog = self.bot.get_cog("Core")
if not core_cog:
return
commands_to_disable = ["contact", "dm"]
for cmd_name in commands_to_disable:
cmd = self.bot.get_command(cmd_name)
if cmd and cmd.cog_name == "Core":
cmd.enabled = False
self._disabled_core_commands.append(cmd_name)
```
**What happens:**
1. Gets the Core cog from Red
2. Finds the `contact` and `dm` commands
3. Verifies they belong to Core (not another cog)
4. Sets `enabled = False` on each command
5. Tracks which commands were disabled
#### On Unload (`cog_unload`)
```python
async def _enable_core_commands(self):
"""Re-enable Red's core commands when this cog unloads."""
for cmd_name in self._disabled_core_commands:
cmd = self.bot.get_command(cmd_name)
if cmd:
cmd.enabled = True
self._disabled_core_commands.clear()
```
**What happens:**
1. Iterates through disabled commands
2. Finds each command
3. Sets `enabled = True` to restore them
4. Clears the tracking list
### Command Registration
The cog registers its own versions of these commands with the same names:
```python
@commands.command(name="contact")
@commands.dm_only()
async def contact(self, ctx: commands.Context, *, message: str):
"""Enhanced contact command"""
# ... implementation
@commands.command(name="dm")
@commands.guild_only()
@commands.admin_or_permissions(manage_guild=True)
async def dm_command(self, ctx: commands.Context, user: discord.User, *, message: str):
"""Enhanced dm command"""
# ... implementation
```
### Why This Approach?
**Pros:**
- ✅ Clean override without modifying Red's core
- ✅ Automatic restoration when unloaded
- ✅ No conflicts with other cogs
- ✅ Preserves command names users are familiar with
- ✅ Works with Red's permission system
**Alternatives considered:**
- ❌ Command name collision (Red would error)
- ❌ Monkey-patching (fragile and unsafe)
- ❌ Different command names (breaks user familiarity)
## Architecture
### Data Storage (Config)
#### Guild Settings
```python
DEFAULT_GUILD = {
"enabled": False,
"categories": {}, # name -> {channel_id, description, emoji, roles, greeting}
"default_category": None,
"log_channel": None,
"mod_roles": [],
"reply_with_embed": True,
"show_author_info": True,
"anonymous_mode": False,
"thread_mode": False,
"dm_on_reply": True,
"active_threads": {}, # channel_id -> {user_id, category, started_at, message_count}
"thread_timeout": 3600,
"custom_greeting": "",
"require_category": False,
}
```
#### User Settings
```python
DEFAULT_USER = {
"blocked": False,
"preference_category": None,
"last_contact": 0,
}
```
### Message Flow
#### User → Staff
```
User (DM) → [p]contact message
↓
Check blocked status
↓
Select category (if multiple)
↓
Get category channel
↓
Send to staff channel (embed with user info)
↓
Log to log channel (if configured)
↓
Send confirmation to user
```
#### Staff → User
```
Staff (Guild) → [p]dm @user message
↓
Check permissions
↓
Format message (embed/plain, anonymous/named)
↓
Send DM to user
↓
Log to log channel (if configured)
↓
Confirm to staff
```
### UI Components
#### CategorySelectView
- Discord UI Select dropdown
- Shows up to 25 categories
- Includes emoji, name, and description
- 180 second timeout
- Returns selected category
#### SupportControlView
- Persistent view (timeout=None)
- Custom IDs for persistence across restarts
- Buttons: Close Thread, Block User
- Staff-only controls
#### ReplyModal
- Text input for staff replies
- Paragraph style (multi-line)
- 1900 character limit
- Sends reply on submit
### Background Tasks
#### Thread Cleanup Loop
```python
async def _thread_cleanup_loop(self):
"""Background task to clean up inactive threads."""
# Runs every 5 minutes
# Checks thread_timeout setting
# Removes stale threads from active_threads
```
**Purpose:** Clean up inactive support threads based on guild settings
**Interval:** 5 minutes
**Action:** Removes threads older than `thread_timeout` seconds
## Security Considerations
### Permission Checks
1. **contact command:**
- DM-only (`@commands.dm_only()`)
- Checks user blocked status
- Validates guild membership
2. **dm command:**
- Guild-only (`@commands.guild_only()`)
- Requires Manage Guild permission
- Validates target user exists
3. **supportset commands:**
- Guild-only
- Requires Manage Guild permission
- Validates input data
### Data Privacy
- User IDs stored (not usernames - they can change)
- Message content not stored (only transmitted)
- Last contact timestamp for rate limiting
- Blocked status for abuse prevention
### Error Handling
- `discord.Forbidden` - User has DMs disabled
- `discord.HTTPException` - Network/API errors
- Missing channels - Graceful degradation
- Invalid config - Falls back to defaults
## Performance
### Optimizations
1. **Config Caching:**
- Red's Config system caches values
- Only writes on changes
2. **Async Operations:**
- All I/O is async
- Background tasks don't block
3. **View Persistence:**
- Views registered once at load
- Reused across all interactions
4. **Minimal Database Writes:**
- Bulk operations where possible
- Async context managers for safety
### Scalability
- **Small servers (<100 members):** No issues
- **Medium servers (100-1000 members):** Optimized for this
- **Large servers (1000+ members):** Thread cleanup may need tuning
**Recommendations for large servers:**
- Increase `thread_timeout` to reduce cleanup frequency
- Use separate log channel (not same as support channel)
- Consider rate limiting (future feature)
## Compatibility
### Red-DiscordBot Versions
- **Minimum:** 3.5.0
- **Tested on:** 3.5.0+
- **Max:** Latest
### Python Versions
- **Minimum:** 3.8
- **Recommended:** 3.9+
### Discord.py Version
- Matches Red's discord.py version
- Uses discord.py 2.x features (UI components)
## Debugging
### Enable Debug Logging
```python
import logging
logging.getLogger("red.evecogs.support").setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
```
### Common Issues
**"Commands not found after loading"**
- Check if Core cog is loaded
- Verify `[p]load support` succeeded
- Try `[p]reload support`
**"Core commands still work"**
- Check cog load order
- Ensure no errors in console during load
- Try `[p]unload core` then `[p]load core` and `[p]load support`
**"Messages not showing up"**
- Verify channel exists: `[p]supportset list`
- Check bot permissions in target channel
- Ensure category is properly configured
**"Can't send DMs"**
- User likely has DMs disabled
- Check bot can DM users (not always possible)
- Verify user hasn't blocked the bot
## Testing
### Manual Testing Checklist
- [ ] Load cog successfully
- [ ] Core commands disabled
- [ ] `[p]contact` works in DMs
- [ ] Category selection appears (if multiple categories)
- [ ] Messages reach staff channel
- [ ] User info displays correctly
- [ ] `[p]dm` sends to users
- [ ] Logging works (if configured)
- [ ] Blocking works
- [ ] Unload restores core commands
### Test Cases
1. **Single Category:**
- Create one category
- Contact should go directly there
- No category selection shown
2. **Multiple Categories:**
- Create 2+ categories
- Contact should show selection dropdown
- Messages route to correct channels
3. **Blocked User:**
- Block a user
- User cannot contact
- Error message shown
4. **Anonymous Mode:**
- Enable anonymous mode
- Staff replies hide names
- Shows "Server Name Staff" instead
## Future Enhancements
Potential features for future versions:
- Rate limiting (X messages per hour)
- Priority queues
- Auto-responses
- Ticket numbers/IDs
- Thread persistence
- Multi-server support (user chooses)
- Attachment support
- Transcript generation
- Staff assignments
- SLA tracking
- Analytics dashboard
## Contributing
When contributing to this cog:
1. Maintain async/await patterns
2. Use type hints
3. Follow existing code style
4. Test with multiple guilds
5. Ensure commands still override properly
6. Update documentation

╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║ SUPPORT COG - COMMAND OVERRIDE TEST ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
This script demonstrates the command override mechanism used by the
Support cog to replace Red's built-in 'contact' and 'dm' commands.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE COG LOADS:
─────────────────────────────────────
1. Support cog loads
2. cog_load() is called automatically
3. _disable_core_commands() runs:
- Finds Core cog
- Gets 'contact' command
- Sets contact.enabled = False
- Gets 'dm' command
- Sets dm.enabled = False
- Tracks disabled commands
4. Support's own commands are now available
5. Users see the enhanced versions
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE COG UNLOADS:
───────────────────────────────────
1. Support cog unloads
2. cog_unload() is called automatically
3. _enable_core_commands() runs:
- Gets 'contact' command
- Sets contact.enabled = True
- Gets 'dm' command
- Sets dm.enabled = True
- Clears tracking list
4. Core commands are restored
5. Users see the original versions
WHY THIS APPROACH:
──────────────────
✅ Clean - No monkey-patching or hacks
✅ Safe - Automatically restores on unload
✅ Compatible - Works with Red's permission system
✅ Familiar - Users keep using same command names
✅ Reversible - Easy to unload without breaking things
TESTING IN RED:
───────────────
1. Before loading:
[p]help contact # Shows core version
[p]help dm # Shows core version
2. Load Support cog:
[p]load support
[p]help contact # Shows Support version
[p]help dm # Shows Support version
3. Unload Support cog:
[p]unload support
[p]help contact # Back to core version
[p]help dm # Back to core version
VERIFICATION:
─────────────
Run these in your Red instance:
# Check which cog owns a command:
[p]eval await ctx.bot.get_command('contact').cog_name
# Check if command is enabled:
[p]eval await ctx.bot.get_command('contact').enabled
# List all commands from Support cog:
[p]help Support
