count how many times someone has been mentioned

[hearty grove]

message.mentions would have the users mentioned in that message

Go through channel.history and check if the user is in the mentions. If yes then add to a counter

i know how to loop though the chat history
i dont know how to check for a specific word (mention) in a message

[hearty grove]

Did you even check the docs link? It tells you how to iterate through the chat history

Oh wait sorry

I thought you said you didn't know how to iterate

My bad

Well you can do if "word" in msg.content

[grand trout]

i did this but it gives me an error

[mental socket]

what error does it give?

[grand trout]

ima send a screen shot
it runs but when i execute the command it doesn`t work

[mental socket]

Try conveting user to string

user=str(user)

[grand trout]

well.....

[mental socket]

okay, try this

x=str(user)
if x in msg.contet:
  count+=1

[grand trout]

ok well um
it doesnt give an error
but the number is 0 like it doesnt see the mention

[hearty grove]

User is a member. Do user.mention

[grand trout]

finally it worked
thx a lot!
