Support

Need a hand with PlusPlus? Here's how to reach us and answers to common questions.

Contact us

Email contact@pluspluskarma.dev with any question, bug, or feature request. No account or sign-up required — just send a message. We aim to respond within 2 business days.

Prefer to track issues in the open? You can also report bugs on GitHub Issues (a GitHub account is required for that option — email always works without one).

Getting started

  • Install: click Add to Slack on the home page and approve the requested permissions.
  • Invite the bot to a channel: run /invite @plusplus in the channel where you want karma tracked.
  • Award karma: mention someone followed by two or more pluses — @sam ++. Use -- to dock karma.
  • See standings: run /leaderboard for the all-time scores in your workspace.

Common questions

Why didn't my ++ register?

A few rules apply: you need at least two symbols (+ alone does nothing), you can't award or dock your own karma, and each message moves a score by at most ±5. Make sure the bot has been invited to the channel with /invite @plusplus.

Can I change where the bot replies?

Yes. Use /settings reply_mode thread to keep replies in a thread, or /settings reply_mode channel to post them in the channel.

How do I remove the app or delete our data?

Remove PlusPlus from Settings & administration → Manage apps in your Slack workspace; this revokes the bot token. To have your workspace's stored data (karma counters, settings, and the stored token) deleted, email contact@pluspluskarma.dev and we'll remove it. See the privacy policy for details on what is stored.
