Remember to:

Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Why do you have client and Bot?

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 1:36 PM

#

dawn sleet Why do you have `client` and `Bot`?

not entirely sure the tutorial i saw said to, should i stick to only one and what one?

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 1:38 PM

#

vale moth not entirely sure the tutorial i saw said to, should i stick to only one and wha...

commands.Bot inherits from all functions, attributes, etc. of the Client object

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 1:38 PM

#

dawn sleet `commands.Bot` inherits from all functions, attributes, etc. of the `Client` obj...

ok so swap the client.events to bot.events?

#

or all instances of client?

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 1:39 PM

#

vale moth ok so swap the client.events to bot.events?

Delete client, if you want to make commands you must use only commands.Bot

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 1:39 PM

#

dawn sleet Delete `client`, if you want to make commands you must use only `commands.Bot`

ok thanks

#

this is my first project so idk what im doing

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 1:41 PM

#

The events should change to this:

@Bot.event

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 1:44 PM

#

dawn sleet The events should change to this: `@Bot.event`

thanks, but it isnt working still

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 1:45 PM

#

vale moth thanks, but it isnt working still

I can't see your code correctly, can you send it here please?

#

!paste

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in Discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the Paste! button in the bottom left, or by pressing CTRL + S. After doing that, you will be navigated to the new paste's page. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

Hey @vale moth!

It looks like you are trying to paste code into this channel.

You seem to be using the wrong symbols to indicate where the code block should start. The correct symbols would be ```, not '''.

Furthermore, it looks like you pasted Python code without syntax highlighting. Please use syntax highlighting to improve the legibility of your code and make it easier for us to help you.

To do this, use the following method:
```py
print('Hello, world!')
```

This will result in the following:

print('Hello, world!')```
You can **edit your original message** to correct your code block.

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 1:47 PM

#

The init method of a class must be like this __init__

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 1:48 PM

#

ok, ill try that

#

it still doesnt work, however that may be because i wasnt sure on whether i should replace all instances of init with init

Do you receive any errors?

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 1:57 PM

#

dawn sleet Do you receive any errors?

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 1:57 PM

#

vale moth no, if you want i can invite u to the server so u can see it

Can I see your pip list?

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 1:58 PM

#

how do i show that?

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 1:58 PM

#

In the terminal type pip list

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 1:59 PM

#

oh wait mb i was typing it in visual studio

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:00 PM

#

Do you have Python installed?

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:00 PM

#

yes

#

im pulling it up now my pc is just a bit slow

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:01 PM

#

Type python -V in your terminal

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:02 PM

#

Python 3.12.4

#

when i type pip list it comes up with update which is what i doing now

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:04 PM

#

An update?

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:04 PM

#

yea i was using 24.0 when apparently its 24.1

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:05 PM

#

Try to update it, you can also install Python again, there must be some error

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:06 PM

#

already did that like 3 hours ago to try and fix it on my own

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:07 PM

#

Do you use VSC?

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:07 PM

#

yes

#

im typing in cmd prompt rn tho to check these things

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:07 PM

#

Can you see if it detects the Python interpreter?

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:08 PM

#

how do i check that?

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:08 PM

#

At the bottom there should be a field that says 'python' and its current version

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:09 PM

#

yea it has that

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:10 PM

#

When you run your bot, do you get the message that it is ready in the on_ready event?

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:11 PM

#

it says it is ready yes

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:13 PM

#

vale moth it says it is ready yes

Do you have intents enabled in the Discord developer portal?

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:13 PM

#

dawn sleet Do you have intents enabled in the Discord developer portal?

yes

latent hamlet Jun 24, 2024, 2:14 PM

#

Add this to on_message event

    await bot.process_commands(message)

so it looks like this

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    await bot.process_commands(message) # <------ here
    if message.author == bot.user:
        return
    if message.content.startswith('start'):
        await message.channel.send('Starting sucking')

#

You are overriding default on_message event without calling commands handling

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:15 PM

#

latent hamlet Add this to `on_message` event ```py await bot.process_commands(message) ```...

thats not the issue code i have that working its the button press code

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:17 PM

#

It's very strange, could you try to enable intents manually?

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:17 PM

#

how do i do that?

latent hamlet Jun 24, 2024, 2:20 PM

#

vale moth thats not the issue code i have that working its the button press code

You have swapped order of arguments

    async def menu1(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):

#

Should be like this

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:21 PM

#

vale moth how do i do that?

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents)

latent hamlet Jun 24, 2024, 2:22 PM

#

dawn sleet ```py intents = discord.Intents.default() intents.message_content = True bot = c...

He is using discord.Intents.all() already

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:23 PM

#

latent hamlet You have swapped order of arguments ```py async def menu1(self, interaction:...

I didn't know that in discord.py it was that way, in Pycord the button goes first and then the interaction

#

pithink

#

I see that they are the same in many things but they have aspects that make them different

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:24 PM

#

latent hamlet You have swapped order of arguments ```py async def menu1(self, interaction:...

running that version now

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:25 PM

#

vale moth running that version now

Sorry for not helping, I use another library.

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:25 PM

#

dawn sleet Sorry for not helping, I use another library.

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:26 PM

#

latent hamlet He is using `discord.Intents.all()` already

dawn sleet Jun 24, 2024, 2:26 PM

#

vale moth nah all g

good luck with your bot, if you have no more questions you can use the !close command

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:26 PM

#

dawn sleet good luck with your bot, if you have no more questions you can use the `!close` ...

ok thx

vale moth Jun 24, 2024, 2:27 PM

#

vale moth still doesnt work

i did the modify of the flipped code and it still didnt work

latent hamlet Jun 24, 2024, 2:27 PM

#

I got it workign with this

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

deg = discord.Intents.default()
deg.message_content = True

client=commands.Bot(command_prefix='!', intents = deg)

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    await client.process_commands(message)

    if message.author == client.user:
        return
    
    if message.content.startswith('start'):
        await message.channel.send('Starting sucking')
        
class Menu(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.value = None
        
    @discord.ui.button(label="Send Message", style = discord.ButtonStyle.grey)
    async def menu1(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):
        await interaction.response.send_message("Hello you Clicked me")
        
@client.command()
