you should export everything directly from discord.js since @discordjs/builders and discord-api-types is included so there really isn’t a need to do two separate imports in v14

On another note, I don’t see where you want to use an embed or any code that resembles where the error is originating from

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 3:58 AM

#

austere crag you should export everything directly from discord.js since `@discordjs/builders...

i removed the code for how cuz of the error but i wanted to do it were return interaction.reply(``) is

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 3:58 AM

#

do what though

#

are you having trouble creating the embed, sending the embed in the interaction reply, or both?

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:01 AM

#

like getting it to work at all because when i start the bot i get that error right away

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:02 AM

#

you still didn’t provide the code where the error comes from, but MessageEmbed has been renamed to EmbedBuilder in v14

#

if you don’t have MessageEmbed anywhere in your code and you still receive the error, make sure your files are saved

#

there’s only so much I can do to help with the information that is given

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:10 AM

#

this is the code i use before

const exampleEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
.setColor(0x0099FF)
.setTitle('Some title')
.setURL('https://discord.js.org/')

module.exports.config = {
enabled: true,
};

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:10 AM

#

alright well what’s the error you get?

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:14 AM

#

TypeError: MessageEmbed is not a constructor

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:14 AM

#

Please make sure your files are saved and also double check that you don’t have any use of MessageEmbed anywhere

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:15 AM

#

like in anyother code?

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:15 AM

#

you should search your entire code base

#

if you dont find anything with MessageEmbed, again please make sure your files are saved

#

There’s really nothing more I can suggest

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:16 AM

#

i dont see any and i do save i have nodemon

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:17 AM

#

that’s just a package

#

CTRL + S

#

nodemon doesn’t save your files btw

#

It just restarts the node app when the file has changes

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:21 AM

#

oh

#

i always do C + S anyway tho

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:35 AM

#

austere crag It just restarts the node app when the file has changes

so like this welcome code it doesnt send anything when someone joins but i no longer got the error just no message pops up

const Discord = require('discord.js');

module.exports = client => {
  client.on('guildMemberAdd', member => {
    const channel = member.guild.channels.cache.get('1071533510420582473');
    if (!channel) return; 

    const embed = new Discord.EmbedBuilder()
      .setColor('#00FF00')
      .setTitle(`Welcome to the server, ${member.user.tag}!`)
      .setDescription('We are glad to have you here!')
      .setImage('https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1040617924492263434/1093381788707070083/blue_lion_pfp.gif');

    channel.send(embed)
      .then(console.log(`Sent welcome message to ${member.displayName}`))
      .catch(console.error);
  });
};

tall ravineBOT Apr 6, 2023, 4:38 AM

#

Sending and editing now takes only a single object parameter!

- channel.send(embed);
+ channel.send({ embeds: [embed, embed2] });
- channel.send('Hello!', { embed });
+ channel.send({ content: 'Hello!', embeds: [embed, embed2] });

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:39 AM

#

what does this mean?

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:40 AM

#

the way you’re sending an embed is incorrect

#

needs to be an object with passing an array of embeds with the embeds option

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:41 AM

#

how would i do dat?

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:41 AM

#

look at the tag I sent

#

- means you remove that
+ is what you change it to with taking your code into account since the tag is just an example of what the correct format is suppose to follow

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:44 AM

#

okay? i think i understand

#

so
i remove channel.send(embed)

and make it something like this?

channel.send({ content: 'Hello!', embeds: [embed, embed2] });
      .then(console.log(`Sent welcome message to ${member.displayName}`))
      .catch(console.error);

#

sorry if im asking really dumb questions havnt touch discord.js in years and never did embeds before

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:46 AM

#

you can, but you don’t have 2 embeds. Only 1. Also, you have if(!channel) return; which means basically if the channel isn’t found, your code is not going to do anything so make sure that channel id is correct

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:47 AM

#

there’s a wonderful guide if you’re having trouble understanding

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:48 AM

#

so


const embed = new Discord.EmbedBuilder()
      .setColor('#00FF00')
      .setTitle(`Welcome to the server, ${member.user.tag}!`)
      .setDescription('We are glad to have you here!')
      .setImage('https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1040617924492263434/1093381788707070083/blue_lion_pfp.gif');

    channel.send({ content: 'Hello!', embeds: [embed] });
      .then(console.log(`Sent welcome message to ${member.displayName}`))
      .catch(console.error);
  });
};

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:48 AM

#

looks good, try it

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:48 AM

#

okay thank you

#

okay so no errors besides the . in (.)then(console.log(`Sent welcome message to but besides that nothing sent in the server and the id is right now i have it in. welcome.js my guess i have to do something in index.js?

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:52 AM

#

make sure the id you put in your code is valid

tall ravineBOT Apr 6, 2023, 4:52 AM

#

• The provided id is incorrect (copy role ids from context menus, not message mentions)
• The client does not have this structure cached (try fetching instead)
• The client is not yet ready (move the code into any event listener callback)

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:53 AM

#

i thought to get channel id you right click the channel and hit copy id

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:54 AM

#

yeah that’s fine

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:54 AM

#

thats what i did than why is it incorrect

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:54 AM

#

I didn’t say it was incorrect

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:55 AM

#

i was reading from the /tag

#

idk if this matters but i have it like this

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:56 AM

#

sadly no

#

Is this a bot that you’re updating to v14? Or are you just starting out to make one

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:57 AM

#

i got this from someone im just adding on to it

#

only thing i added so far is the welcome.js

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:57 AM

#

are you familiar with how the code works?

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:57 AM

#

and a token and stuff

#

no

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:58 AM

#

that’s not very good

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:58 AM

#

i think last time i use discord.js was v11 or something

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 4:58 AM

#

It’s hard for us to help if even you don’t understand how the code functions. I suggest looking at the guide fully, especially the event and command handling section

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 4:59 AM

#

okay

#

can i use older versions of discord.js still or no

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 5:00 AM

#

anything below v13 we don’t support and I don’t recommend doing so anyway since they will have unknown errors that are not fixed in newer api versions

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 5:01 AM

#

oh

#

does slash work in v13

#

i heard thats kinda new

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 5:02 AM

#

yes, but you’re not going to have an easier time using v13 over v14

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 5:02 AM

#

oh okay

#

thanks for the help i might just build my own code than using the one i am using

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 5:03 AM

#

I think that’s the best thing to do

pseudo barn Apr 6, 2023, 5:03 AM

#

thanks for the help

austere crag Apr 6, 2023, 5:03 AM

#

You’re welcome

don’t hesitate to ask for more help in the help channels if you have trouble
