# Setting your server's prefix You must be an Admin or the Owner on the server you want to change the prefix on. By default, the prefix on all servers is `t!`, Some servers may want to change this. #### How the the prefix on your server: The command to change the prefix is `t!admin setprefix `, For example if you wanted to set the prefix to `twitter!` (so all commands would have to start with that prefix) you would run `t!admin setprefix twitter!` Custom prefixes cannot include spaces or advanced characters. #### Check the current prefix being used: You can check the prefix which is currently being used in a server by pinging the bot. For example, just write `@TweetShift` and you should be able to @ the bot. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
