discord.js - Imagine an app•2mo ago

Updating commands once the bot is started.

I've looked at various posts but no one seems to help me, when I start my bot with the command “node .” my bot goes online correctly however it doesn't update the commands by adding the ones I created, staying on the old ones, even if I go to “Manage interaction” it doesn't change and they are still the same, I don't get any errors in my code.

- What's your exact discord.js npm list discord.js and node node -v version? - Not a discord.js issue? Check out #other-js-ts. - Consider reading #how-to-get-help to improve your question! - Explain what exactly your issue is. - Post the full error stack trace, not just the top part! - Show your code! - Issue solved?

If you aren't getting any errors, try to place console.log checkpoints throughout your code to find out where execution stops. - Once you do, log relevant values and if-conditions - More sophisticated debugging methods are breakpoints and runtime inspections: learn more

that code does not register your commands you were told how

Cristiano®OP•2mo ago

But why do the other commands work? Always slash.

treble/luna•2mo ago

you deployed them at some point

Do you mean this?

treble/luna•2mo ago

yes also the latest api version is 10 and that code should not need a client it should be ran separately whenever you change your commands

Cristiano®OP•2mo ago

So how should I solve the problem?

treble/luna•2mo ago

by running the file but removing your client logic from it
