# Guide 10 · Script branches: 2 to 8 paths depending on the fan’s answer
> A script is not always a straight line. A branch waits for the fan’s answer, then the chatter takes the matching path: “yes”, “no”, “hesitating”…
URL : https://docs.mymik.fr/en/guides/embranchements
The screens are the real MYMIK screens on the web, with a fictional agency (“Agence Lumière”), fictional creators (including **Emma**) and fans with made-up nicknames: no real data. The **numbered black dot** and the **purple outline** show where to click or look; the same number is used in the text.
The MYMIK interface is not translated yet: the screens stay in **French**. For each step, the text gives the exact French label shown on screen, followed by its English meaning.
1. Open a script in **Diffusion › Scripts** and click **Embranchement** (“Branch”).
2. Say **what you are waiting for** from the fan, name each **path** (2 to 8), choose whether MYMIK should suggest the right one.
3. Add each path’s messages with **Message dans « … »** (“Message in …”).
4. Check the result in the **Aperçu du parcours** (“journey preview”).
## 0. Before you start [#0-before-you-start]
What to know in one minute.
- When what comes next depends on the fan’s answer: liked it or not, his age, a word he writes.
- Example from the screen: a free “Bonsoir 😊” → a €15 photo → branch “did he like it?”: “yes” path with the €30 video, “no” path with another photo.
- A branch has **2 to 8 paths**, each with a name and a colour.
- **Nothing goes out without the chatter’s click**: MYMIK can only suggest the right path.
- After the choice, all paths **resume at the script’s next step**.
First create the script and its first messages (guide 9). The branch is placed after the messages already there.
## 1. Create a branch [#1-create-a-branch]
What we wait for, the paths, the suggestion.
### 1. Open a script and click « Embranchement » [#1-open-a-script-and-click--embranchement-]
In **Diffusion › Scripts**, open a script. Next to **Nouveau Pack** ❶, the **Embranchement** button ❷ adds the choice point after the messages.
### 2. Say what we wait for and name two paths [#2-say-what-we-wait-for-and-name-two-paths]
The window explains: “We wait for the fan’s answer, then the chatter takes a path. MYMIK can suggest the right one.” In **Ce qu’on attend** (“What we wait for”) ❶, write the question or expected answer (here « Il a aimé ? », “Did he like it?”). Name **Chemin 1** ❷ and **Chemin 2** ❸. Each path has a **colour** (« Couleur »).
### 3. Choose when MYMIK suggests the path [#3-choose-when-mymik-suggests-the-path]
On each path, **Suggérer si** (“Suggest if”) ❶ offers three choices: **Jamais** (never: the chatter chooses alone), **Il donne un âge** (he gives an age) or **Il écrit un mot** (he writes a word).
### 4. Fill in the words (or the age range) [#4-fill-in-the-words-or-the-age-range]
With **Il écrit un mot** ❶, enter the words separated by commas (« Mots, séparés par des virgules ») ❷ (1 to 20 words). With **Il donne un âge**, give a **De… À…** (“From… To…”) range (whole age from 18 to 99). When the fan’s latest answer contains one of these words, or an age in the range, the path is preselected. **If two paths match, nothing is suggested.**
### 5. Add a path, then « Créer les N chemins » [#5-add-a-path-then--créer-les-n-chemins-]
**Ajouter un chemin (8 au plus)** (“Add a path (8 at most)”) ❶ adds a line (here « Il hésite », “He hesitates”). When everything is named, the **Créer les 3 chemins** (“Create the 3 paths”) button ❷ creates the branch in the script.
## 2. Fill the paths [#2-fill-the-paths]
Each path has its own messages.
### 1. Spot the branch and its paths [#1-spot-the-branch-and-its-paths]
In the script, an **Embranchement · Il a aimé ?** block ❶ appears after the messages. Its paths are coloured tabs with their number of messages (« Oui · 1 ») ❷. **Message dans « Oui »** ❸ adds a message to that path. At the bottom of the block: « Les 3 chemins reprennent ensuite à l’étape suivante » (“The 3 paths then resume at the next step”).
### 2. Switch path [#2-switch-path]
Click another tab ❶ to see and complete that path: **Message dans « Non »** ❷. Each message of a path is set like an ordinary pack (name, description, price, media: see guide 9).
### 3. Check the Aperçu du parcours [#3-check-the-aperçu-du-parcours]
The right-hand panel ❶ shows what a fan receives: the welcome message, then the line « Il a aimé ? — le fan répond, son chemin : » (“Did he like it? — the fan answers, his path:”) with the choices, and the messages of the selected path. Tap another answer to follow its path. The footer counts the messages (« un fan en reçoit N », “a fan receives N”).
## 3. Edit, move, delete [#3-edit-move-delete]
The actions on an existing branch.
### 1. The branch icons [#1-the-branch-icons]
On the block header ❶: a handle to **move the branch**, the pencil **Modifier l’embranchement** (path names, colours, suggestions) and the bin **Supprimer l’embranchement**. On each message, the icon ❷ **Déplacer vers un chemin ou la ligne principale** (“Move to a path or the main line”) lets you file it elsewhere.
### 2. Delete without losing the messages [#2-delete-without-losing-the-messages]
The window ❶ asks what to do with the messages: **Garder les messages** (“Keep the messages”) brings them back to the main line, in place, path after path; **Supprimer aussi les messages** (“Delete the messages too”) erases them with the branch; **Annuler** (“Cancel”) changes nothing.
### What the chatter does [#what-the-chatter-does]
In the conversation, the chatter opens the script: at the branch, the panel asks « Le fan a répondu ? Choisissez le chemin » (“Did the fan answer? Choose the path”). If your suggestion matches, the path is preselected with the label **suggéré** (suggested); they confirm it or pick another, then send. **Nothing goes out without their click.** Under each branch on the Scripts page, the paths are then compared: fans who went through, purchases, the path’s revenue (calculated from the sends already made).
## 4. Troubleshooting [#4-troubleshooting]
Symptom shown → cause → what to do. Quoted messages are those of the screen.
| What you see | Cause | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| No « Embranchement » button | No script is open, or your role cannot edit scripts. | Open a script; otherwise ask a manager. |
| « Créer les N chemins » stays greyed out | A path has no name, or « Ce qu’on attend » is empty. | Name every path. |
| « un âge entier de 18 à 99 » (a whole age from 18 to 99) | The age entered is outside 18–99, or not a whole number. | Correct the « De… À… » range. |
| « l’âge minimum dépasse le maximum » (minimum age above maximum) | The age range is the wrong way round. | Swap « De » and « À ». |
| « de 1 à 20 mots, séparés par des virgules » (1 to 20 words, comma-separated) | No word, too many words, or a word over 40 characters. | Keep 1 to 20 short words. |
| The chatter sees no suggested path | No path matches the latest answer, or two match: in that case nothing is suggested. | They choose themselves. Refine the words or age ranges. |
