🔒 Delete specific Message Code

[lost turret]

Ive been trying to figure this out since im pretty new to coding, the code im trying to do is whenever the owner, admin, moderator and minimod reply to a user's message with "?dm" (short for delete message) it will delete the message you replied to. Example: if an admin replies to a user message with the command "?dm" it will delete the replied message.

in ctx there should be a field for the message it replies to, then you can just delete that message
dispy docs are your best friend

ohh thanks

this is what it says AttributeError: 'Intents' object has no attribute 'message_references'

[final lava]

you need to enable the intent for it (just do intents.all() in your bot intents)

[lost turret]

do i put it under message reference true?

sorry im not good at this stuff

[final lava]

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_references= True

client = bot.Bot('-', intents=intents)

[lost turret]

"client" is not defined

[final lava]

bro that's just and example client is just the name i used for my bot

i mean to say this is how you set intents for your bot
