TypeError: pendingTicketsChannel.createChannel is not a function

This used to work, but discordjs has been updated throughout the years and now it just throws the following terminal error.

node:events:497
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

That wouldn't have worked since about v11 guild.channels.create is how you do it currently

.OP•7mo ago

monbrey•7mo ago

I don't know what pendingTicketsChannel is If you don't code it's going to be very hard to help you

.OP•7mo ago

i know like a bit.. does this answer that question.

const bugReportChannel = await pendingTicketsChannel.createChannel(`bug-report-${currentTicketNumber}`, {
                type: 'GUILD_TEXT',
                permissionOverwrites: [
                    {
                        id: member.id,
                        allow: ["SEND_MESSAGES", "VIEW_CHANNEL", "READ_MESSAGE_HISTORY", "ATTACH_FILES", "EMBED_LINKS"],
                        deny: ["USE_APPLICATION_COMMANDS", "CREATE_PUBLIC_THREADS", "CREATE_PRIVATE_THREADS"]
                    },
                    {
                        id: reaction.message.channel.guild.id,
                        deny: ["VIEW_CHANNEL", "READ_MESSAGE_HISTORY"],
                    },
                ],
            });

No, doesn't show me what it is. But it implies it's probably a guild. There's a lot more than that which needs updating here though, likely the entire bot Why was it updated to v14?

.OP•7mo ago

thought to update it to the latest,

monbrey•7mo ago

You jumped three major versions There are going to be a huge number of changes to make

.OP•7mo ago

alright i get that. is there like any way to use older versions

Kevinnnn•7mo ago

not really, and you wouldn't get any support for them since v11 has been unsupported for a few years now v13 is currently the oldest major version still supported, v14 is the current major version
