actually i tried a lot and couldnt find this thanks tho

Don't take this in a negative way but I call this into question because simply searching "message" has it show up. Maybe you're not aware you can filter/search forum posts? Video shows how on mobile, desktop is pretty much the same.

Not to mention the thread was high up still. You just had to scroll down a fractional bit. With both these factors there is just no way you put in, by your own claim, a lot of effort. @sairasu so the linked post was resolved, but commands did work there to begin with. If you still need help please provide the code of your bot as without code we can't do much

- Did you use a folder of the examples repository or did you use the CLI to generate your bot? - What's your file/folder structure? - What's your "main" property in package.json - Are you using TypeScript? And if so, how are you compiling and running your code? - Are you using the version 2 or version 3 of @sapphire/framework? - In case you are using version 3 of @sapphire/framework, and your problem related to message commands, did you add loadMessageCommandListeners to your SapphireClient options Remember that if you are new to @sapphire/framework it is important that you read the user guide.

I was using control F but yea for sure I thought I had fixed it but it did not actually work which is strange the bot responds when it’s pinged and says “My prefix is .” but doesn’t respond to commands I’ll send something in a few the only issue is that messageCreate IS being logged if i try and just make it log what im saying in a server but commands just dont run? its hard to find the bug when theres no error

Other than the 10 seconds cooldown after 2 commands there's nothing wrong there. Please share the full code so I or anyone else can properly debug, or attach a debugger yourself and use breakpoints to navigate the core events.

sairasu•2y ago

absolutely no reason to use the same command more than twice but ok not sure how thats relevant ill debug ig

Favna•2y ago

depends on what kind of bot you're making tbh. For example for @Dragonite you may want to get the details on multiple pokemon so you query twice

sairasu•2y ago

for sure not in my case

Favna•2y ago

anyway if you want my help zip up the code or put it on GH (private and give me access if you must)

Anthony•2y ago

I seem to have fallen into the same issue as well, I can't figure out why after I've updated to v4 that message commands won't run, and it worked on v3. I have tried to check and for some reason it won't run anything inside messageRun.

Favna•2y ago

Same goes for you, we'll need some code if you want help. We cannot wave a magic wand and read your brain and look through your eyes.

Spinel•2y ago

When asking for help, make sure to provide as much detail as possible. What have you tried so far? Do you have stacktraces that you can show us? What are you trying to achieve? Try to answer these questions and others, so we do not have to ask for them afterwards.

Sorry, I thought as it said it was solved that it may have been fixed in DMs or something. Here is the repo, ignore the bit of a mess it is, ik I need to get to refactoring it 😭 https://github.com/veganhacktivists/arabot This is a command I knew that worked in v3: https://github.com/veganhacktivists/arabot/blob/main/src/commands/roles/convinced.ts In https://github.com/veganhacktivists/arabot/blob/main/src/index.ts I have also tried to see if defaultPrefix: process.env.DEFAULT_PREFIX, was the issue and replaced it with defaultPrefix: '?', in testing, but it didn't help.

You didn't provide GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent, and possibly also not enable the message content intent on https://discord.dev dashboard

Anthony•2y ago

Yeahhh it seems like I didn't know I had to add GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent, sorry about that. Thank you though :))

Favna•2y ago

An easy mistake to make (made it myself as well a few days ago) to be fair it's also not documented in the djs migration guide <_< Could you maybe make a PR to https://github.com/sapphiredev/website/blob/main/docs/Guide/getting-started/updating-from-v3-to-v4.mdx to add it? That would help a lot

Anthony•2y ago

Ahhh alright, at least that softens the blow for me haha And I'd be happy to make a PR :)

Favna•2y ago

awesome, thanks
