Fetching channel with ID 1146385311421710346
Channel with ID 1146385311421710346 not found or not a text channel.

any idea where i messed up ?

ShompiFlen•15mo ago

first of all if you have the guilds intent you shouldnt really need to fetch channels (at lesst text channels) because they will be cached on ready are you doing this inside an event? is you bot logged in when you try to fetch this channel? oh okay I see the issue you are comparing the channel type to a string but it has to be a number now OR I think ("GuildText") could work too, not entirely sure about the last one so my suggestion is: Import ChannelType from discord.js and check channel.type === ChannelType.GuildText instead yea no im pretty sure strings dont work here anymore

              try {
                console.log(`Fetching channel with ID ${newRank.channelId}`);
                const channel = await client.channels.fetch(newRank.channelId);
                if (channel && channel.type === ChannelTypes.GUILD_TEXT) {
                  const congratsMessage = `Congratulations! You are now ${role.name} tier!`;
                  await channel.send(congratsMessage);
                  console.log(
                    `Congratulation message sent to channel ${channel.name}`
                  );
                } else {

ShompiFlen•15mo ago
