#message.guild.owner.id == None, a version problem?

In ON_MESSAGE
My bot has a check, that exludes other bots, system users, dmchannels, and "if not message.guild"

after that are the lines that cause problems:

 if message.guild.owner.id == message.author.id:
   return

so i did:

        print(f"message.guild.owner: {message.guild.owner}\n"
              f"message.author: {message.author}")

and got:

message.guild.owner: None

In my test-bot (using py-cord 2.3.2) 
this worked. 

with the real bot (using 2.4.1) it doesn't find the guild owner anymore. 

What's my best course of action to resolve the issue?

High chance your code is doing something you missed

#

chances are they aren't caching members so it can't find the owner

#

but there's a separate guild.owner_id attribute that always exists

    async def on_message(self, message: discord.Message):
        # Exclude bots, sys-users, DMs, owner
        if message.author.bot or message.author.system:
            return
        # DM-Check
        if isinstance(message.channel, discord.channel.DMChannel):
            await message.channel.send(bff.get_description())
            return
        if not message.guild:
            return

        print(f"message.guild.owner: {message.guild.owner}\n"
              f"message.author: {message.author}")

        # if message.guild.owner.id == message.author.id:
        #    return

        # enters or refreshes the last time someone was active
        #self.db.make_or_update_entry(message.guild.id, message.author.id, int(datetime.now().timestamp()))

can you tell me how to fix it? it did work with the old version and i tried fixing but.. well.. I need some help :/

earnest mantle

#

do you have the members intent?

#

or yeah you can just use guild.owner_id instead, you just won't have any of their other info

grim edge
#

I have the guild members intent and am verified.

grim edge
#

lemme post sth

pseudo wave
#

yeah

grim edge
# pseudo wave yeah

did i make a mistake here?:

        intents = discord.Intents.default() | discord.Intents.members
pseudo wave
#

the heck

earnest mantle
pseudo wave
#

you want py intents = discord.Intents.default() intents.members = True

grim edge
#

I try runing it now, if that doesnt fix it I'll try guild.owner_id.

BTW; @pseudo wave , @earnest mantle , you guys definately earned your virtual cape today! Thank you so much for taking time to respond!

I'll report back in a couple of minutes

#

The intents change didn't fix it. trying the guiold.owner_id method now

grim edge
#

owner_id worked like a charm, no errors since this was adjusted.

However I'd like to learn where i went wrong.
I have those intents in the dashboard:

#

That's currently in the bots code for intents:

(not true, there is a typo, "intents" in the scond line is not capitalized)
