## How do I change my password?
Use the [`my`](Commands.md#my) command to set the `password` user metadata for your
user account.
my password <your password>
## How do I make PBot remember my `date` timezone?
Use the [`my`](Commands.md#my) command to set the `timezone` user metadata for your
user account.
my timezone <your timezone>
## How do I make PBot remember my `weather` location?
Use the [`my`](Commands.md#my) command to set the `location` user metadata for your
user account.
my location <your location>
## How do I change the bot trigger?
By default, PBot uses the `!` character as its trigger; as well as its `irc.botnick`.
To change the default `!` trigger to a different character use the [`regset`](Registry.md#regset)
command to change the `general.trigger` value.
For example, to change it to the `~` character:
regset general.trigger ~
To change it to both `!` and `~` (and others):
regset general.trigger [!~]
To use only the bot's nick:
regset general.trigger ""
You can also override the trigger on a per-channel basis by use the channel name
in place of `general`.
For example, to override the trigger specifically for `#channel`:
regset #channel.trigger ~
