Is it possible to send a message later so that it is sent as if it was sent by the user?

for example, when sending a message from the bot message.channel.send , change the avatar and nickname somehow and send

async function sendMessageAsUser(channel, content, username, avatarURL) 
{
  const messageOptions = 
  {
    content: content,
    username: username,
    avatarURL: avatarURL,
    flags: MessageFlags.Crossposted
  };

  const message = await channel.send(messageOptions);
  return message;
}

async function sendMessageAsUser(channel, content, username, avatarURL) 
{
  const messageOptions = 
  {
    content: content,
    username: username,
    avatarURL: avatarURL,
    flags: MessageFlags.Crossposted
  };

  const message = await channel.send(messageOptions);
  return message;
}

- What's your exact discord.js npm list discord.js and node node -v version? - Not a discord.js issue?

you're looking for webhooks probably

I saw such code in the old documentation, but the createMessage method does not work in it

const { MessageFlags } = require('discord.js');

// Example of a function for sending a message on behalf of a user
async function sendMessageAsUser(channel, content, username, avatarURL) {
  const messageOptions = {
    content: content,
    username: username,
    avatarURL: avatarURL,
    flags: MessageFlags.FLAGS.CROSSPOSTED
  };

  const message = await channel.createMessage(messageOptions);
  return message;
}

// Example of using the function
const channel = yourDiscordClient.channels.cache.get('CHANNEL_ID'); // Replace CHANNEL_ID with Channel ID
const content = 'Hello World!';
const username = 'JohnDoe'; // Desired nickname
const avatarURL = 'URL_AVATAR'; // Avatar URL

sendMessageAsUser(channel, content, username, avatarURL);

const { MessageFlags } = require('discord.js');

// Example of a function for sending a message on behalf of a user
async function sendMessageAsUser(channel, content, username, avatarURL) {
  const messageOptions = {
    content: content,

    flags: MessageFlags.FLAGS.CROSSPOSTED
  };

  const message = await channel.createMessage(messageOptions);

const content = 'Hello World!';
const username = 'JohnDoe'; // Desired nickname
const avatarURL = 'URL_AVATAR'; // Avatar URL

sendMessageAsUser(channel, content, username, avatarURL);
