Ability to involve the Discord bot in threads/replies

[Piedone]

Somebody in the Orchard Core community asked a question, I created a thread from it (as usual), and tried to get the Gurubase bot to help. From the reply (which is a generic Orchard Core intro) it seems to me that it didn't get the original message in the thread in its context:

It would be useful if it could get all the messages in the thread, or if asked among replies, the previous messages replied to (but probably more useful and easier to implement is the thread one).

Hey @Piedone,
The current version's context mechanism only takes into account messages that mention the bot in the thread. So it makes sense that the scenario you raised doesn't work. But I agree that the bot should also support this use case. I'll update this thread once it is supported.
For a workaround solution, you can copy the question and paste it along with mentioning the bot until we release a native solution.

Thank you! Yes, that's an acceptable workaround if you know how this works, just not intuitive.
