okay so did you debug this? if you place a console.log at the start of the execute function (of this event handler) does it log?

#

just inside the execute function, i just want to check if this event is being handled at all

#

yea that means it is being loaded, but i want to know if the event is triggering if you use a slash command

#

if you make an interaction, that is what i want to know

#

you get no errors if you try to run a command right?

#

but in your console / terminal

#

uhh okay, as a side not you shoulnd't be deploying your commands on start up

#

so I still haven't been answered, i need to know if the event emits at all when you trigger an interaction, i need you to console.log something inside the execute(){} function of the event handler

#

while you are at that, did you enable the Guilds intent?

#

in your client instance, when you create it, did you do intents:["Guilds"]?

#

it seems like you deploy your slash commands everytime you start up your bot, that is not recommended as the daily limit to create / update commands is very limited

#

by moving the entire part of the script to deploy commands to another file, and only run that file when you need to update or add new commands, the guide has a section for that too

#

looks good I think... okay did you try logging something inside the execute function of the interactionCreate event?

#

https://discordjs.guide/creating-your-bot/command-deployment.html#command-registration

#

you did not understand what i told you... I need you to do this execute(interaction){console.log("I was triggered!")} in your interactionCreate file

#

ok so after you add that you have to restart your bot, trigger an interaction, and check the terminal, hopefully you will see the message there

#

if that is the case, then we need to check your command file

#

module.exports = {
  name: "InteractionCreate",
  async execute(interaction, client) {
    console.log("I was triggered!") // <-- Here
    
    if (interaction.isChatInputCommand()) {
      const { commands } = client;

#

should also try logging interaction.commandName
