I am having this error:

Error occurred executing welcome set-message.
Discord.Interactions.InteractionException: Error occurred executing welcome set-message.

from this line:

if (Context.Guild.GetUser(Context.User.Id).GetPermissions(Context.Guild.SystemChannel).ManageChannel == false)

did you by chance turn off welcome messages in the guild? and/or don't have a channel set to have those sent?

hmm a good thought but I just trested it and while it does cause an error which I need to accont for it happens later on

#

hmmm, maybe try manually casting the SystemChannel to an IGuildChannel? taking a wild shot in the dark here as its the only other thing I can think of when reading "Unknown channel type"

I'm not super familiar with what a System Channel is. But according to the source code, the method GetPermissions can't accept any of the following channel types:

Guild Directory
News
News Thread
Private Thread
Public Thread
Store

I'm assuming threads aren't able to be system channels, not sure about the others. Just in case you're using one of those, it's not going to work.

System Channel is the channel set for guild welcome automated welcome messages. It's a TextChannel
