# Connecting your Last.fm account

Connect your Last.fm account with the command below. It'll cache all of your artists, albums, and tracks locally, so you always get accurate statistics.

kayo automatically refreshes your Last.fm library every 24 hours. If you want to update it yourself, use the lastfm update command.

;lastfm set <username>

Once your account is set, see what song is currently playing with the ;nowplaying command!

# Preferences

# Setting a custom command

You can use a custom command to invoke the nowplaying command. This is useful if you want to trigger the command with a shorter alias.

Last.fm commands don't rely on a prefix.

For example, if you want to type rxfm instead of nowplaying you would execute the following:

;lastfm command rxfm

# Changing your reactions

You can change the reactions used for the ;nowplaying command with the ;lastfm reactions command. As an example, if you want to use the 🔥 and 🗑 instead of the default 👍 and 👎 you would execute the following:

;lastfm reactions 🔥 🗑

# Customizing your embed

You can also customize the embed that appears for the ;nowplaying command with the ;lastfm mode command.

Styles

default - A detailed embed with all information.
compact - A compact embed with only the essentials.
minimal - A minimal embed with only the track and artist.

You're also able to use a custom embed script - You can the variables for that here.
