### 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?
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 ~
### How do I whitelist a user?
Whitelisting a user exempts them from anti-flood enforcement, ban-evasion checking,
being automatically muted or kicked for various offenses, and more.
To whitelist a user, use the [`useradd`](Admin.md#useradd) command with the
`is-whitelisted` capability argument. To whitelist them in all channels, add
the user to the global channel.
Usage: `useradd <username> <hostmasks> <channels> is-whitelisted`
If the user already exists, use the [`userset`](Admin.md#userset) command to
grant them the `is-whitelisted` capability.
Usage: `userset <username> is-whitelisted 1`
