I have tried: - changing from ':emoji' to {name:'emoji'} - adding a "Unknown" option incase some are not found - my discord.js version is v14.11.0 - my node version is v18.2.0

KAVI•17mo ago

First. Why are you spreading the object again to map it ? Second. That's a rather inefficient way to handle it.

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

what true im writing inefficient code

KAVI•17mo ago

Third. That string select menu builder doesn't have an ID which is required

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

ohhhhhh i forgor custom_id lemme try i forgor everything in that select menu but not the options

KAVI•17mo ago

You don't need to use the spread operator here. ... Inside the function it's a normal array that you can work with.

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

KAVI•17mo ago

But that's basic JS

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

i see that in the docs they doesnt pass an array, they pass multiple arguments of options so i did that

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

eh...

KAVI•17mo ago

What the.... Well that's another problem in your code. A broken loop or an abused command without checks ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

its junk when testing

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

so i now got this error

message.txt

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

which is way too large dont ask why i ping @ everyone

KAVI•17mo ago

Looks like overlooked your emoji problem

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

h ok

KAVI•17mo ago

Why are you using the name attribute for default emojis ?

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

lemme regex it backward

KAVI•17mo ago

You can just pass it without having to use that .setEmoji('💖')

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

yes i dont know the cause of that error so i was thinking is it caused by this

KAVI•17mo ago

The error was caused by the emoji mate

KAVI•17mo ago

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

no i mean the first error

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

k i did it

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

do i need to parse emoji to unicode emoji?

KAVI•17mo ago

It's better to do that yes Like how I did If you're in windows 11 Flag+v should give you access to all unicode emojis oh wait

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

its paste... k i found it uhh flag+v doesnt behave normally in vscode lemme do from discord

KAVI•17mo ago

That's strange. I do it all the time from within Thonk

either way works

5UP3R_D1N•17mo ago

done

KAVI•17mo ago

So it worked ? Nice
