Manual Sessions

Manual sessions allow you to log writing sessions you performed outside of the bot!

Adding a Manual Session​

A manual session can be logged using the /session manual command! The command has the same options as /session complete and functions in a similar manner, with the only extra fields being shown below:

  • session_date: The date the session took place on. Format: DD/MM/YYYY. You can also use "today" or "yesterday" to select a date. This defaults to the current day.
  • session_length: The length of the session, in minutes. If you want more detailed control, you can use the hours/minutes/seconds format.
  • update_project: Optional. Whether you want to change your current project's wordcount. Defaults to yes.
  • project_name: Optional. The name of the project you wish to log the session in. This defaults to your active project.
warning

You must provide the date in the DD/MM/YYYY format and NOT the MM/DD/YYYY format! Using the latter can result in unexpected results.
