const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require('discord.js');
module.exports = {
data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
.setName('openticket')
.setDescription('Open a support ticket'),
async execute(interaction) {
await interaction.deferReply({ ephemeral: true });
try {
const ticketCategory = interaction.guild.channels.cache.find(

};are u using v14 or v13? do
npm ls discord.js in ur terminalthe issue thats causing the error is <GuildChannelManager>.create() takes
GuildChannelCreateOptions as the first parameter, not a string
also
v14 uses PascalCase for enums not snake_case, so for example u have to replace GUILD_CATEGORY with GuildCategory etcso everwhere that i have GUILD_CATEGORY i change it to GuildCategory
so how do fix that
and also GUILD_TEXT is GuildText??
yes
read the updating guide https://discordjs.guide/additional-info/changes-in-v14.html#enum-values
there's an example of how to use this method in the docs i linked
hold on
on what category is the example
?
ok i will try it
np still an error
