Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'roles')

I am trying to get the user's highest role and compare it to a role they are attemping to give another user through a slash command. The command worked perfectly until I tried to add this checker, and now it's breaking. The error I am getting is TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'roles') The line that is erroring is const senderHR = interaction.sender.roles.highest.position; Full code:

const { SlashCommandBuilder, PermissionFlagsBits, GuildMemberRoleManager } = require('discord.js');
const { execute } = require('./server');

module.exports = {
    data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
        .setName('giverole')
        .setDescription('Adds the selected role to the user.')
        .addUserOption(option =>
            option
                .setName('target')
                .setDescription('The member to give the role to')
                .setRequired(true))
        .addRoleOption(option =>
            option
                .setName('role')
                .setDescription('The role to add')
                .setRequired(true))
        .setDefaultMemberPermissions(PermissionFlagsBits.ManageRoles)
        .setDMPermission(false),
    async execute(interaction) {
        const sender = interaction.sender
        const target = interaction.options.getUser('target');
        const giveRoleTo = interaction.guild.members.cache.get(target.id);
        const role = interaction.options.getRole('role');
        const senderHR = interaction.sender.roles.highest.position;
        if (role.position <= senderHR);
    try {
        await giveRoleTo.roles.add(role)
        await interaction.reply(`✅ | Successfully added ${role.name} to ${target.username}!`);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error(error);
        await interaction.reply('❌ | There was an error giving the role.');
      }
    }
};

const { SlashCommandBuilder, PermissionFlagsBits, GuildMemberRoleManager } = require('discord.js');
const { execute } = require('./server');

module.exports = {
    data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
        .setName('giverole')

i just replaced it with interaction.member and it still gave me the role even though it was higher than my previous highest role if that doesnt make sense i had member role, ran the command to give me the owner role and it gave me the role it isn't supposed to give me the role if my highest role is below the role i am trying to give

d.js docs•6mo ago

- Bots cannot moderate (kick/ban/nickname/...) a target with a higher or equally high highest role or the guild owner. - Bots cannot modify (edit/add/remove) roles that are higher or equally high compared to the bot's highest role. - The Administrator permission does not skip these checks.

no but im going to be using this bot in my server to give people roles like staff and things for when im lazy but what im trying to do is if my role is say for example the moderator role and i try to give myself the administrator role i dont want it to work but it does give me the role im trying to get it so the bot won't give me the role if my highest role is below the role im trying to give

:mdn: Greater than or equal (>=) The greater than or equal (>=) operator returns true if the left operand is greater than or equal to the right operand, and false otherwise. :mdn: Less than or equal (<=) The less than or equal (<=) operator returns true if the left operand is less than or equal to the right operand, and false otherwise.

ik the if part is messy i tried another thing and it still gives the role

treble/luna•6mo ago

const senderHR = interaction.member.roles.highest.position;

kai 𓇢𓆸OP•6mo ago

that's the person that uses the command im checking if their role is higher than the role they're trying to give if its below the role theyre trying to give then it shouldnt work

how i took my roles and im giving myself a role above the current role i have and its still working

d.js docs•6mo ago

:method: RoleManager#comparePositions @14.15.3 Compares the positions of two roles.

can•6mo ago

use this

kai 𓇢𓆸OP•6mo ago

how do i check whether it returned positive or negative do i do something like if (compareRoles(role.position, senderHR) >= 1); give the role

can•6mo ago

if (interaction.guild.roles.comparePositions(interaction.member.roles.highest, role) <= 0) {
  // return error
}

if (interaction.guild.roles.comparePositions(interaction.member.roles.highest, role) <= 0) {
  // return error
}

like this

kai 𓇢𓆸OP•6mo ago

thankss is there a way to make it send different replies based on that i tried using else but it just gives me a constant red line under everything

Mark•6mo ago

Yes, your syntax is likely incorrect if that's the result

kai 𓇢𓆸OP•6mo ago

is this how i use it

can•6mo ago

you know basic javascript right?

kai 𓇢𓆸OP•6mo ago

yes it worked tysm! :X_whitehearts:

can•6mo ago

add return before interaction.reply and remove else that doing nothing

kai 𓇢𓆸OP•6mo ago

can•6mo ago

add "else" then

kai 𓇢𓆸OP•6mo ago
