Show the code, it may be permission error

@jolly agate you don't need to create a thread for every question

const { CommandInteraction, MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js');

module.exports = {
  name: 'clear',

The error as well

[atomic citrus]

thats the thing. theres no error

[cerulean spindle]

Nothing happens when you run it in a different channel?

[jolly agate]

I know but it helps to keep #djs-help-v14 organized and so I can help individual members

[cerulean spindle]

Doesn't at all it's pretty annoying to join a thread every time to help somebody

[jolly agate]

I was thinking that the code returned somewhere (done that many times before without catching it)

[atomic citrus]

it runs and just says Cleared 0 messages from user

[jolly agate]

Sorry

[atomic citrus]

i added the role the bot has to the permissions and gave it everything in both channels. but its only working in 1

[jolly agate]

It's not this

[cerulean spindle]

So it works in a single channel but does not in others?

[jolly agate]

do you have any error catching at all?

[cerulean spindle]

Could you show an example

[atomic citrus]

i havent tried in others, just those 2. let me try another

[cerulean spindle]

Also just deleting messages instead of deleting from target

Tell me if that works

[atomic citrus]

ok so it looks like its only working in 1 channel

from target

ok so regular clearing works. but when adding a target it doesnt

but without target looks like its messing up too

i did /clear 10
and it said it only cleared 1

but it works as intended in that 1 channel

[cerulean spindle]

Well does the target have messages in that channel

[atomic citrus]

yes

here let me try to record gif

[cerulean spindle]

Are the targets messages before you restarted the bot

[atomic citrus]

yes

[cerulean spindle]

Try sending messages while the bot is online then redo it

[atomic citrus]

that works

[cerulean spindle]

There is an error where the bot can not catch messages that was sent before the last restart

I don't think you can fix it

[atomic citrus]

ya that looks like the issue

[atomic citrus]

damn 😦

its just a discord thing?

[cerulean spindle]

Yes

Same with message delete

You can't fetch the message after bot restarts

[atomic citrus]

alright. thanks
