I'm stuck with one topic, I can't implement a function like one command = two actions

The function for a slash commands has a single string parameter you can use for different actions:

Lua Code:

SLASH_MYSLASHFUNCTION1 = "/ms"
SlashCmdList.MYSLASHFUNCTION = function(msg)
    local name  = UnitName("player")
    if msg:upper() == "HI" then
            print("Nice day to you " .. name)
    elseif msg:upper() == "BYE" then
            print("Time to go " .. name)
        end
end

Code:

/ms hi

/ms bye

        end
end

Code:

/ms hi

/ms bye

what if i wanna use just /ms to turn something one and /ms to turn off? without adding worlds like /ms on or /ms off ?

Use a toggle depending on what you want to toggle.

Lua Code:

local SomeBooleanVariable -- could be a SavedVaraible to save between sessions.
SlashCmdList.MYSLASHFUNCTION = function(msg)
    SomeFrame:SetShown(not SomeFrame:IsShown()) -- show/hide a frame
 
    SomeBooleanVariable = not SomeBooleanVariable -- toggle boolean variable
    if SomeBooleanVariable then -- and action it
        -- do thing if true
    else
        -- do thing if false
    end
end
