# Reminders

> Create automated reminders and ER:LC actions for your server.

***

## What are Reminders?

Reminders allow you to automate messages and actions for your server.\
You can send scheduled messages, prompt staff to complete tasks, and integrate reminders directly into ER:LC.

Reminders only run when at least one staff member is on shift.\
This prevents unnecessary messages when the server is inactive.

## Server Reminders

</Frame>

The Reminders page shows all active reminders for your server.\
Each reminder displays:

* Interval
* Message
* Linked action
* ER:LC integration type
* Minimum ER:LC players
* Edit and delete options

You can create up to 20 reminders.
