To receive direct message events on
"messageCreate" with your bot, you will need:
- The DirectMessages gateway intent
- The Channel partial settingDon't use ChatGPT
why I dont wanna scripttt tnn
ChatGPT gives very outdated code
Because it's not accurate, that's not how you check channel type
Channel type is a number not a string
^ use this enum
alr
I got it
nvm
hang on
so
const { Client, GatewayIntentBits } = require('discord.js');
// Create a new client instance with the necessary intents
const client = new Client({ intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds, GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages, GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent] });
client.once('ready', () => {
console.log('The bot is ready and logged in as ' + client.user.tag);
});
client.on('messageCreate', message => {
console.log(Received message from ${message.author.tag}: ${message.content});
// If the message is from a bot, ignore it
if (message.author.bot) return;
// Check if the message is a DM
if (message.channel.type === 'DM') {
message.reply('Hello! How can I help you today?')
.then(() => console.log(Replied to message from ${message.author.tag}))
.catch(console.error);
}
});
// Replace 'YOUR_BOT_TOKEN_HERE' with your bot's token
client.login('HIDDEN');
The message.channel.typ === "DM"
Should be a 1 instead of DM?
Dude ^
ChannelType.DM
1 is valid but you should use the enum as I suggested
Don't forget to import the enum firstMY BAD
So like this if (message.channel.type === ChannelType.DM) ?
yes
I got the enum but now it wont respond to my dms?
@-Carlos👑 I got it in my server also
send code
const { Client, GatewayIntentBits, ChannelType } = require('discord.js');
// Create a new client instance with the necessary intents
const client = new Client({
intents: [
GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages,
GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent
]
});
client.once('ready', () => {
console.log(
Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!);
});
client.on('messageCreate', message => {
// Log every message received (for debugging purposes)
console.log(Received message from ${message.author.tag}: ${message.content});
// Ignore messages from bots
if (message.author.bot) return;
// Respond to DMs
if (message.channel.type === ChannelType.DM) {
message.reply('Hello! How can I help you today?')
.catch(console.error);
}
});
// Login to Discord with your bot's token
client.login('Q'); // Make sure to replace with your actual token
I edited channeltype.dm and
thats all and obv the tokenCodeblocks:
```js
const Discord = require("discord.js");
// further code
```
becomes
Inline Code:
`console.log('inline!');` becomes
console.log('inline!');any error?
nah
did you enable MessageContent on the Developer Portal too?
yea

Is what I have nowBoth me and Carlos told you what you have to do...
^ literally the first thing I sent
im sorry Im confused asf
I think I did it
Current intents after modifications: [ 'Guilds' ]
Logged in as Numbum#1532!
I got the bot to show this
or the cmd
Good then
Hang on so I added the intent and partial and got it to say that
but it wont respond still
Show how you added it
And use one of these please
https://sourceb.in/k4BSCVyj73
WAIT
I think I fucked it up again one seconed
You clearly did not add the channel partial
Yea i forgot 🤡
I think you should give that a read
oh
I only added this
MY BAD
if (message.partial) {
message.fetch()
.then(fullMessage => {
console.log(fullMessage.content);
})
.catch(error => {
console.log('Something went wrong when fetching the message: ', error);
});
} else {
console.log(message.content);
}
Message will never be a partial in messageCreate event, so that's useless anyway
yo im sorry Im still confused
Also you should reset your token
You need DirectMessages intent and Channel partial to receive dm messages as the tag above said, nowhere did we discuss about message partials
OHH
so i got the dm intent right
but I need the channel partial?
Yes, please read this
I GOT IT!
