[proud pagoda]

Instead of while true just set the interval at which the task should be run

[fervent cradle]

kk

[fervent cradle]

I have a bot that can be used with slash commands but also with "?" as a normal prefix, when I host the bot over Sparked Host the "?" commands don't work even tho the slash commands and everything else work
if I host exactly the same script locally everything works fine, can anyone here help me?

[rugged lantern]

yeah because url is supposed to be... url?

url = link

is not a valid url unless you have the variable link

try without using the decorator

i said decorator

@discord.ui.button

instead use self.add_item(Button(label =...))

i'm on phone i can't give the proper usage for it

no. inside your view class, which you've not super().__init__()
btw

[cyan quail]

what version of pycord do you have installed on the server

i.e. print(discord.__version__)

[cyan quail]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.Interaction.edit_original_message

[fervent cradle]

2.0.0b4 same as locally (I used pip freeze that should work as well right?)

[cyan quail]

upgrade to 2.0.0

b4-b5 was an intents change

once you're on 2.0.0, you need to set intents.message_content = True; if you're already using intents.all(), then you don't need to change anything

[fervent cradle]

Ok imma try thanks

[signal stratus]

Thx

[fervent cradle]

I am pretty sure what you said will resolve my issues, if I try it it says I have to enable the corresponding privileged intents in the developer portal, do I understand correctly that until the 1.9.2022 I don't have to apply for the message content Intend

[cyan quail]

how many servers is your bot in?

[fervent cradle]

more than 15000

[cyan quail]

oh my

hmmm

it's best you apply as soon as possible, the wait times are quite long

[fervent cradle]

I thought it would get enforced after the 1.9.2022

[fervent cradle]

I intend to move to / commands completely by then but for now I also want to offer "?" commands, so I don't plan on applying for any privileged intents

[cyan quail]

hmm hold on

[fervent cradle]

ok thanks

[cyan quail]

it will be enforced in september but ApiV10 requires the intent, if you go down to v9 you should be able to go without...?
at the start of your file after imports, set discord.http.API_VERSION = 9

[fervent cradle]

ok imma try

[cyan quail]

it's probably best to gradually encourage your users to migrate to slash though; if you do get prefix commands working, i recommend having some sort of warning message about the transition

[fervent cradle]

yeah that was the plan I thought like 2-3 weeks before the change I would tell them that they have to move to / if they use "?"

[cyan quail]

luckily, discord implemented command suggestions so if they do use ? the slash commands will still show up

[fervent cradle]

the issue is that "older servers" didn't give the bot "create commands" (or however it is called) permission so it won't show up for them but generally thats nice

and it works now thanks a lot, no way I would have been able to fix that without you

[cyan quail]

all good, i believe discord is rolling out a notification that will allow admins to easily grant bots the required scope

[fervent cradle]

oh that would be nice

[cyan quail]

so it should be easier in due time

hmm doesn't seem like it, are you getting any errors?

what version?

hmmmmmmm

i... don't think so? the code itself looks fine, i'll try testing it

ok wow that was hard to see

unindent the callback function by one level

this

your callback is defined inside the init

when it should be outside

[fervent cradle]

How can i edit message?

[severe storm]

is the message an interaction?

[fervent cradle]

no, default message

[severe storm]

do it like this:

message = await ctx.send("bla bla")
await message.edit(content="bleh bleh")

[fervent cradle]

thanks

[vital blade]

get the channel first
then do await channel.send

[worldly schooner]

[grim canopy]

anyone

[fervent cradle]

try removing bot.add_application_command

I think its registering the command twice

and thats why you are gettin the error

[grim canopy]

ic

[fervent cradle]

could someone explain what the top @s do?

[fervent cradle]

"Testing Message Command"
make it a lowercase singular word, try potato to test if the error persists.

[neon bramble]

They're decorators, these ones will register the function below to run before the task loops start

[fervent cradle]

yep ik that but what do those both do specifically?

[neon bramble]

I think I said that

Anyway this is undoubtedly documented somewhere (likely better than I can explain)

[fervent cradle]

OH GOT IT

[limber idol]

how do i add a role to someone?

add_roles doesnt seem to work

[neon bramble]

What're you passing to it?

[limber idol]

just the role

[neon bramble]

The role object?

[limber idol]

yep

[fervent cradle]

or the id

[limber idol]

it doesnt even recognize add_roles

[lavish vine]

my cogs aren't working

[neon bramble]

What does your code look like

[fervent cradle]

what's your cod loading code?

[lavish vine]

first one is bot.py

other one is fun.py

[fervent cradle]

weird, should load

[lavish vine]

right?

files

[fervent cradle]

try your load command, does that work?

[lavish vine]

ill try right no

it says the command load wasn't found

ill try the basic help

no commands show up

[neon bramble]

Why are you re-getting the role? You could just pass the object that you already have

[limber idol]

ahh

ill try that

[lavish vine]

ok so, i like stopped the bot

[lavish vine]

and then started the bot

and it works now

so thanks fort the help!!

[fervent cradle]

oh nice

np!

[fervent cradle]

member is None

[fervent cradle]

add print(member) after that and show me the print

is the ID right?

[limber idol]

ighty

[limber idol]

yep

it just prints None

[fervent cradle]

so it can't get the user

[limber idol]

oh

i forgot to thingy the intents

is that the problem?

[tiny wagon]

any event listener, that triggers on bot's mesage send?

[slow eagle]

anyway i can add like the letters not as choices?? ```py
async def antitoggle(ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, var: discord.Option(str, 'on or off! ', choices='yn')):

nvm i fixed it

[vital blade]

how can i check a member's custom status

[vital blade]

cant find anything

[silver moat]

b!rtfm pyc status

[dire spade]

Best matches for status in pyc

discord.Status
discord.Status.dnd
discord.Status.do_not_disturb
discord.Status.idle
discord.Status.invisible
discord.Status.offline
discord.Status.online
discord.Status.streaming
discord.Bot.status
discord.Template.uses

[silver moat]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.Member.status

I don't think you tried

[rugged lantern]

i tried to read the docs!
...
though i didn't read the section literally named the main keyword for what i'm looking for

[waxen whale]

[worldly schooner]

how do I treat discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound as exception?

[fervent cradle]

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    print('1')
    roleJoin = member.guild.get_role(863696255224643605)
    await member.add_roles(roleJoin, reason=f'{member} (ID: {member.id}) зашёл на сервер')

@bot.event
async def on_member_remove(member):
    dm = bot.create_dm(member)
    dm.send('Нам очень жаль, что вы вышли с нашего сервера, надеюсь мы смогли помочь вам и вашему серверу.\n\n**Если вдруг вы решите вернуться:** \nТакже мы просим вас ответить на несколько вопросов в данной форме: \nФорма для амнистии бана: (если вы были забанены) ')

on_member_join, on_member_remove doesn't work

[waxen whale]

forgot to remove the google forms link :p

[fervent cradle]

yea

[silver moat]

why tho

[silver moat]

Did you add guild intents?

[fervent cradle]

yes

[full basin]

Whats the best library that works with pycord to play music?

[silver moat]

Where are you treating it?

[silver moat]

officially Pycord.Wavelink

but you can just about use anything as shown here #creations message

[worldly schooner]

Thats what I want to know, where I should put the try catch for it?

[silver moat]

in an event called on_command_error

[rugged lantern]

no reason to 'try, except'

[full basin]

thanks

[silver moat]

I have a nested try-except ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[gleaming falcon]

Sanity check -- the best(/only?) way to watch for messages in a specific channel is to use a global on_message handler and filter by the message.channel.id?

[silver moat]

yes

[full basin]

How can I delete duplicated commands? Or do they automatically delete discord just did

[worldly schooner]

oh thx

[gleaming falcon]

Oh boy. What am I doing wrong? I'm trying to get the contents of a specific message by ID

Code's fairly simple...

    @commands.command()
    @commands.is_owner()
    async def msg(self, ctx):
        message_id = 998690020435173547
        msg = self.bot.get_message(message_id)
        print(msg)

Yet msg is None. Is get_message() not adequate? The bot has message history permissions (and message intents, even though it shouldn't need it as a private bot)

[young bone]

How can I remove a slash command/disabled?

[silver moat]

message_content intents?

[silver moat]

You can remove a slash command by deleting it from your code

[young bone]

I dont want the command to be deleted

[graceful nebula]

You can turn it off in the server permissions as well

[gleaming falcon]

Oh. No, I didn't actually. But it didn't matter - I had to get the channel first, and then channel.fetch_message(message_id). I am guessing get_message() is cache only, but kinda wish there was a way to get an arbitrary message by ID vs caring about the channel (I imagine Discord API limitation)

[silver moat]

ok, glad you figured it out

[tiny wagon]

any event listener, that triggers on bot's mesage send?

[silver moat]

on_message does that

[tiny wagon]

so you mean by passing an if condition right?

[silver moat]

I mean you can trigger the bot sending a message in a million ways

not sure about what event you are looking for

[tiny wagon]

if message.content.author== bot.user

[silver moat]

wait so you want an event to be triggered if your bot sent a message?

[tiny wagon]

see, i have rolled some updates in my bot but i dont have any bot support server, so what i want is advertisement of that thing

i thought i will first create a listener that will trigger when bot sends message, then use random moddule to send the message along with the message bot sends

[tiny wagon]

yes

[silver moat]

how is the random module related?

[tiny wagon]

like if the bot sends my custom message on every message sent by bot, it eill create spam

so to avoid this i will use random.random() and check if its value is smaller than 0.25, then send message

[silver moat]

ok but still create a support server

[tiny wagon]

so 25% chance

[tiny wagon]

actually i had one but the co dev of bot made the support servers to change 2 times lol

also it takes lot of time to fill support server, so how should i tell ppl about updates? i am confused

[silver moat]

so your bot runs on commands and just add an embed on every command

and only display that embed if the user hasn't seen it before

[tiny wagon]

slash commands, and wym add embeds? append embed list?

[silver moat]

so store that value in your database

[silver moat]

well the embed contains your update info

[tiny wagon]

so any event when any slash command issued?

[silver moat]

b!rtfm on_application_command

[dire spade]

I couldn't find a documentation with the name on_application_command! Maybe you used to command wrong? Correct Usage: <prefix>rtfm <docs> [<term>] (eg. b!rtfm py cool)
List of Documentations you can search:

do you want to learn python

[fervent cradle]

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    print('1')
    roleJoin = member.guild.get_role(863696255224643605)
    await member.add_roles(roleJoin, reason=f'{member} (ID: {member.id}) зашёл на сервер')

[silver moat]

what intents do you have enabled

[silver moat]

you also need them enabled on your bot in code

[cyan quail]

await dm.send... but you can just do await member.send, you don't need create_dm

and like mentioned above, you should make sure you specify intents= when defining your bot

[silver moat]

I think the actual issue is that the event is dispatched

[cyan quail]

i wonder if specifying intents should be required for 2.1

so many people just don't know about them

[silver moat]

wait I think I forgot about intents in the migration guide

[worldly schooner]

why when hosting with heroku my cog files dont load?

[proud pagoda]

Is there an error when they fail to load?

[worldly schooner]

it gave an error when he tried to load the token from .env but failed, so i fixed by putting the token on the bot.run()

but no errors about cogs

[lost lodge]

guys how can i edit a message on button click

[proud pagoda]

When loading the cogs, set store=False

[worldly schooner]

here how i load

[worldly schooner]

ok i will try

[proud pagoda]

You can use interaction.response.edit_message

[worldly schooner]

so i do like this? bot.load_extension("cogs." + f[:-3], store=False)

[proud pagoda]

Yes

[worldly schooner]

ok

[lost lodge]

and is it possible to remove the button?

[proud pagoda]

Yep, just remove the button from the view using view.remove_item and then supply the view as well for edit_message

[worldly schooner]

oh now it gave me a error @proud pagoda

it is not finding the requests package

[lost lodge]

like that?

await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed2, view=view.remove_item
)```

[worldly schooner]

i will figure out how to put it in requirements

thanks for the help

[proud pagoda]

Yeah supply requests==(version)

[proud pagoda]

No, do the view.remove_item in the line before and make sure you supply which item to remove

[lost lodge]

            await view.remove_item
            await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed2)```

[proud pagoda]

You don't need to await when removing the item. Also, make sure you supply view=name_of_view to edit_message

[lost lodge]

ok so the button just do nothing

is that wright?

[proud pagoda]

Also supply the item to remove

So you have the button stored in a variable right?

[lost lodge]

            view.remove_item
            await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed2,view=view)```

[proud pagoda]

So do view.remove_item(var_name)

[lost lodge]

ah

same as before

[proud pagoda]

Wdym?

[lost lodge]

so the button just stops working but it doesn't diapers from the message

[proud pagoda]

Hm send all of ur code

For the command

[proud pagoda]

Your issue is that youre doing view.remove_item(view)

You must supply the button var

So for u it would be view.remove_item(button)

[lost lodge]

ah works thanks

!!!

[proud pagoda]

You're welcome

[rugged lantern]

you should class buttons- it is MUCH easier to read and use

[proud pagoda]

Wdym class buttons?

[rugged lantern]

views, not the actual buttons*

[proud pagoda]

Subclass?

Yeah u should subclass if you're going to reuse that same view somewhere else

For example a confirmation view

[rugged lantern]

even if it is a singular instance, having it separate from the command looks better and is easier to work with

[proud pagoda]

Yeah that's true

[lost lodge]

so i added a feature now to switch between embed and every time i hit a button hit removes the other one and send the new embed but this only works on time per button

how can i make that this feature not only works one time

?

[coarse canyon]

For me there seems to be no message content however there definitely is message content

Well the bot just returns empty string

Does anyone know why

I’m using pycord 2.0

[silver moat]

?tag message_content

[obtuse junco]

No tag message_content found.

[silver moat]

?tag message-content

[obtuse junco]

As of Pycord Beta 5, Discord API v10 requires message content intent to receive message content. This affects the traditional commands. Not enabling this intent will result in the messages' content, embeds, and components being empty.

You will need to enable the intent on the developer portal, as well as in your code:

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True
bot = discord.Bot(intents=intents)

Docs: https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.Intents.message_content

[silver moat]

@coarse canyon

[coarse canyon]

Thanks

[lost lodge]

?

[silver moat]

show code ty

[lost lodge]

ok wait

[silver moat]

when you mean it doesn't work, does it say "this interaction failed" or "the application did not respond"?

[worldly schooner]

How do I treat the circunstance of a misspelled parameter, like:

command hi only accept 1 or 2 parameters: !Hi Joseph (or !Hi Joseph Mila)

but I want the bot to add a reaction if the user dont give a parameter or give more than 2

[lost lodge]

so it only works one time per button

[silver moat]

are there any errors in the terminal or on discord?

[lost lodge]

no

[silver moat]

so if you click the button on discord what happens?

[lost lodge]

wait i make a video

[silver moat]

you can handle the error with on_command_error

[worldly schooner]

thanks

[silver moat]

ok it's safe https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/0ab93696b25535f5cd4a87d8699ab6ff884e259e39baa6f69867fa4bcea5361a?nocache=1

It was just cropped off

[lost lodge]

stay safe 😷 xD

[silver moat]

I saw everything but the button

_>

[lost lodge]

?

[silver moat]

I couldn't see the button itself lol

[lost lodge]

in the video or code?

[silver moat]

the video

[lost lodge]

ah

sorry 😦

[lost lodge]

now

[silver moat]

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/ed931bc16a6e62dc7a21a147c62ab4c9334cf6cbc6ea29b4a6c9df515898383b?nocache=1

good no virus

ok so the button is just gone

[lost lodge]

yes

haha

[silver moat]

you defined view2 and view1 as just an empty view

[lost lodge]

it is defined on top of the command

[silver moat]

ok, now in the button callbacks put print(view1.children) and vise versa

[lost lodge]

what vise versa?

[silver moat]

print(view1.children) in button1 and print(view2.children) in button2 callback

if I'm right, then these should be None

[lost lodge]

[<Button style=<ButtonStyle.success: 3> url=None disabled=False label='More information' emoji=None row=None>]
[<Button style=<ButtonStyle.success: 3> url=None disabled=False label='Less information' emoji=None row=None>]```

[silver moat]

this is displayed after you clicked each one twice?

[lost lodge]

yes

[silver moat]

this is the problem

[lost lodge]

ah

[silver moat]

you straight up removed it

[meager heron]

My modal field's max_length doesn't seem to be honored.

self.add_item(
    discord.ui.InputText(
        label="Scene Location",
        placeholder="The location of the current scene",
        value=current_header.location,
        max_length=max_location_len,
    ),
)

Any ideas?

[silver moat]

and it's just gone

[silver moat]

also set a min_length

[meager heron]

Can I just set it to 0?

[silver moat]

yes

[lost lodge]

i works the same after removing it

[meager heron]

Okay. That's odd, but thanks

[silver moat]

also for the second callback

[lost lodge]

ah thanks

works all

[silver moat]

glad I could help

[lost lodge]

bro i have a question

[silver moat]

yeah

[lost lodge]

what do you work on every day on vs code

i see you every day doing that

[silver moat]

secret

[lost lodge]

ok xD

[woeful spindle]

wait how do i edit my interaction message with a callback?

is it await interaction.response.edit_message?

[silver moat]

yes

if application has already been responded. use interaction.edit_original_message

[woeful spindle]

ty

[meager heron]

Is there a way I can disable application commands? I have some long-running commands I don't want to interrupt with a restart, so it would be nice to prevent new ones from being run in order to give any current processes time to complete before shutdown

on_application_command() seems to fire after the commands, not before, so I can't prevent it that way

[silver moat]

on_interaction

[meager heron]

Ah, perfect, thank you

Is there a way to determine if the interaction is specifically a command invocation?

[silver moat]

interaction.type

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.Interaction.type

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.InteractionType.application_command

[meager heron]

Awesome, thank you

[woeful spindle]

I’m getting this error:
'Interaction' object has no attribute 'edit'

[silver moat]

I don't think
interaction.edit
and
interaction.edit_original_message are the same thing

[woeful spindle]

same time?

what?

[silver moat]

auto correct

I get this when I write a plain text message in my server that uses / commands

[full basin]

Do you use prefixed commands?

[wicked helm]

Nope, none at all

[full basin]

What bot instance are you using?

[wicked helm]

from discord.ext.commands import Bot and then using cogs for the / commands

Is it because I am importing Bot from commands?

[full basin]

Use discord.Bot if you don't want prefixed commands

[wicked helm]

That gives me this:

One quick question. I want to do a check to see if the current server my bot is in, if that is equal to a certain server id. As in if my bot is in alot of servers, and i only want this one command to execute on my home server, how would i go about doing that?

[full basin]

Do not worry - I found a way to stop them being ugly..

I just added an on message event that does nothing

For now it works. I can deal with this better at a later date

[fervent cradle]

Ok so im just creating a new bot and i need to know how to make a welcome messgae event

how

like event

[full basin]

[fervent cradle]

like under events?

[cyan quail]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#event-reference

[fervent cradle]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

embed_color = 0x301934


class welcome(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, client):
        self.client = client

    async def on_member_join(self, member, ctx):
        await ctx.send(f"welcome {member}")


def setup(client):
    client.add_cog(welcome(client))

so i was fucking arround but i cant get this to work

[fervent cradle]

I can see a few things wrong.

1. Missing @commands.Cog.listener() decorator needed for events
2. on_member even only has self, member parameter
3. ctx is not defined

[fresh gust]

Hi, could someone tell me how to apply command cooldowns on my commands, but conditionally?
Like apply the call inside an if statement :p
Heres what ive been using so far

@commands.cooldown(rate = 1, per = 30, type=commands.BucketType.user)

[fervent cradle]

    bot = Bot(intents = discord.Intents.all())

How can i fix it?

[fresh gust]

intents.message_content = True

bot = commands.Bot(intents = intents, case_insensitive = True, command_prefix = "!", help_command = None)```

maybe try changing `Bot` to `commands.Bot`?

[fervent cradle]

i've got persistent

[fresh gust]

Okay then i dunno what to do 🤡
What's persistent? Are you talking about a view or something?

[fervent cradle]

view

[fresh gust]

Does that make a difference? Have you tried with commands.Bot?

https://guide.pycord.dev/interactions/ui-components/buttons/#persistent-views this may help

[fervent cradle]

@bot.event

on_member_join, on_member_remove doesn't work

[rugged lantern]

people have already provided you solutions and you've just ignored it completely

[fresh gust]

anything on this??

[marsh moth]

serverList = [###########] @client.slash_command(guild_ids=serverList,name='message_delete') async def messageDelete(ctx):
Theres apparently a daily app command limit of 200, when running the script when the command is already in the server count towards that limit?

[round rivet]

it shouldn't

I believe it's 200 command creations

[devout anvil]

does this work in @bot.slash_command()

[marsh moth]

I was using sync and it was counting as new everytime

[round rivet]

yes I believe so

[devout anvil]

ty

[round rivet]

you have to pass it to the input_type param of Option

[marsh moth]

plun, so does syncing count as creations

[round rivet]

it hasnt been doing that for me

I've been able to restart my bot about 30 times a day and it works fine

[marsh moth]

hmm

[marsh moth]

@client.slash_command(guild_ids=serverList,name='enable_slash_commands')
async def enableSlashCommands(ctx):
    print(ctx.guild.id)
    slashCommandList = [messageDelete,purgeChannel,emergencyLockdown,reactionRole,restrictedEmojis,emojiRestrict,topic,youtubeListen,setLivePingRole,roleClear,xpEvent,xpGet,xpAdd,xpRemove,xpLevelSet,levelingChannel,levelingRewardAdd,levelingRewardRemove,statusKick]
    msgResponse = await ctx.respond('Working...',ephemeral=True)
    await client.sync_commands(commands=slashCommandList,guild_ids=[ctx.guild.id],force=True)
    await msgResponse.edit(content='Slash commands enabeld!')

Would this cause it to go over 200 if the command was ran 13 times?

[round rivet]

with force=True I believe it would

[marsh moth]

why?

[round rivet]

it forces all the commands to re-register

[marsh moth]

but they werent appearing in server if I didnt

[marsh moth]

what would I do to work around that?

[marsh moth]

@round rivet if I update the description of the command, does it count for one of the 200?

[round rivet]

it should just update the command

so no

[marsh moth]

What if its a global command

[round rivet]

still no

[marsh moth]

but it would take an hour to update if it was global, rigjt?

[round rivet]

as long as force is set to False (default) it should be normal

[round rivet]

this delay was removed

[marsh moth]

oh, really?

[marsh moth]

What to do if commands arent syncing without force

[round rivet]

I personally haven't had problems with that unless something caused an exception while loading

but I do have a thing that removes all commands then syncs them again

[marsh moth]

hm ok, I may have been doing ti wrong then fixed it, thanks!

[marsh moth]

like something ur doing or a bug?

[round rivet]

something I'm doing

[marsh moth]

alr, ty

[tiny wagon]

how to ask user for a list of channels from slash command input boxes

can anyone say me how to limit uses of a button

[cyan quail]

check your indents

well

[fervent cradle]

i n d e n t s?

[lost lodge]

help pls

[cyan quail]

yes...?

either that or use self, but you shouldn't really be defining a command inside a view subclass

[fervent cradle]

what are indents again

[cyan quail]

bruh

[fervent cradle]

im pretty sure code is correct tho.

[marsh mesa]

https://www.w3schools.com/python/gloss_python_indentation.asp#:~:text=Indentation refers to the spaces,indicate a block of code.

[fervent cradle]

every other command works in that file

[cyan quail]

the tab level

[fervent cradle]

MY INDENTS ARE CORREXTC

[marsh mesa]

You need indentation to be correct in python as otherwise it won't recognize functions and variables correctly

[fervent cradle]

dies.

[marsh mesa]

It doesn't look correct from the copy paste 🙈

[cyan quail]

yeah but you can't call your own class inside the class

[fervent cradle]

hmmm yea

[cyan quail]

you can use self but why on earth would you define a command inside a view

[fervent cradle]

maybe the pycord guide is incorrect

jk

[fervent cradle]

kk

[cyan quail]

do you mean limit it to specific users?

[fervent cradle]

        class botinfoButton(discord.ui.View): 
            @discord.ui.button(label = "Click me!", style = discord.ButtonStyle.primary, emoji = "😎")
            async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
                await interaction.response.send_message("You clicked the button!") ```
what about now..

[cyan quail]

what about it

[marsh mesa]

much better

[fervent cradle]

nevermind same error

💀

[cyan quail]

though you should probably have an init function and super().__init__() to give it everything required

i didn't mean those indents, i assumed the command should be outside the view class... because of course it should

[fervent cradle]

maybeeeeeee

[cyan quail]

what does your file actually look like?

[fervent cradle]

im new to python and pycord..

[fervent cradle]

its a cog yk

[cyan quail]

then why don't you put the command in the cog class?

[fervent cradle]

i d i d..

[cyan quail]

but... it isn't...

[fervent cradle]

w..a...t

oh

[cyan quail]

yeah

[fervent cradle]

nevermind

i dont understand

i cant put a class inside a cog!?!?!

[cyan quail]

im assuming your file has a cog class and a view class, right?

[fervent cradle]

yes

[cyan quail]

and inside the cog class, you defined a ton of commands?

[fervent cradle]

exactly

[cyan quail]

so look at this code you sent

[fervent cradle]

ok..

[cyan quail]

this is your view class

[fervent cradle]

yes!

[cyan quail]

and you defined a command inside it

why?

[fervent cradle]

why not?!?!

[cyan quail]

because it won't work

[fervent cradle]

o h

[cyan quail]

put it in the cog class with the other commands

[fervent cradle]

alright

d o n e

[cyan quail]

ok now try

[fervent cradle]

IT WORKED

THANKS!!1

omgg

[marsh moth]

Hold up, u can make slash commands for dms???

[fervent cradle]

es

yes\

[marsh moth]

Dang, thank you for letting me know

[fervent cradle]

np

[marsh moth]

So how would u create slash commands for a certain user?

Like userid

[fervent cradle]

i dont think u can

do that

[lost lodge]

No just that it only works one time

[cyan quail]

well you could disable it in the callback

so long as you remember to edit the original message

[cyan quail]

nop

[lost lodge]

Ok

[marsh moth]

nop?

[cyan quail]

you can set permissions inside guilds for a specific user to use a command, but that can't be done via the api; has to be the integrations menu

you can't sync commands to a specific user/DM

[marsh moth]

Ok, but global commands work in dms?

[cyan quail]

yes, unless you set the guild_only attribute

[fervent cradle]

h o w t o d o t h a t

[cyan quail]

set guild_only=True inside your slash command decorator

[fervent cradle]

alr cool

[lost lodge]

and how

[fervent cradle]

uhh that didnt work

will it take time

[cyan quail]

global commands take up to an hour to update

[cyan quail]

set button.disabled=True

i don't think it rolled out fully

[lost lodge]

where?

[cinder pilot]

I usually just go to server settings and then interactions and click the bot and it will show the slash command as synced

[lost lodge]

ah

[cyan quail]

im pretty sure synced is for permissions

[lost lodge]

so problem is now i wanna use it one time but now i can't use it

[fervent cradle]

hmm

[cinder pilot]

Idk but global commands would show up instantly if I do that

[fervent cradle]

they still didnt disapear from dms..

and i can use them

[cyan quail]

im not saying they don't, im saying that update hasn't fully rolled out

[cinder pilot]

[lost lodge]

...

[cinder pilot]

Slash command autocomplete isn't working for me

[cyan quail]

can you show your code?

[cyan quail]

what isn't working

[lost lodge]

the whole command?

[cyan quail]

sure

[cinder pilot]

The autocomplete

[cyan quail]

well i meant, what's wrong with it

errors? something else?

[cinder pilot]

Nop

[cinder pilot]

It doesn't show up

[cyan quail]

can you also show your code

[cinder pilot]

Might be confusing but I'll send

[cyan quail]

inside the callback

[cinder pilot]

async def stop_searcher(ctx: discord.AutocompleteContext):
    return [stop['name'] for stop in rtadubai.StopFinder.findstop(ctx.value)]


@client.slash_command()
@discord.option(name="from", value='from_stop', description="From stop", autocomplete=stop_searcher)
@discord.option(name="to", value='to_stop', description="To stop", autocomplete=stop_searcher)
async def journey(ctx, from_stop, to_stop):
    from_stop = Stop(name=from_stop)
    to_stop = Stop(name=to_stop)
    journey = JourneyPlanner.findroute(from_stop, to_stop)
    await ctx.respond(json.dumps(journey, indent=4))

[cyan quail]

hmm you might need to change a bit more

define the view above the callback, do edit_message instead of send_message and pass in view=view

[lost lodge]

now it ins't disabling it

[cyan quail]

so the autocomplete doesn't show up? or is it not returning any results

[cinder pilot]

It doesn't show up at all

[cyan quail]

i think you should also specify type=... in both options

though i'm not completely sure, i just don't like the option decorator syntax and prefer to typehint it instead

[cinder pilot]

type=str ?

[cyan quail]

yeah

[cinder pilot]

I'll try

[cinder pilot]

Idk I like decorator more

[cyan quail]

fair enough i guess

[lost lodge]

.......

[cyan quail]

define the view above the callback, do edit_message instead of send_message and pass view=view into it

[lost lodge]

error

[cyan quail]

ah change the text to content=f"..."

[cinder pilot]

Still doesn't work

[lost lodge]

wich text

[cyan quail]

your hacker text

[lost lodge]

like that:```py
content = await interaction.response.edit_message(f"Hacking {member.name} now.", view=view)`````

[cyan quail]

not sure then, your code i think looks fine?
maybe you could try typehinting but it shouldn't change anything

journey(ctx, from_stop: discord.Option(str, "From stop", autocomplete=stop_searcher), ...)``` and so on

[cinder pilot]

ok ill do this

[cyan quail]

nonono, the text itself should be assigned to content= to make it a kwarg

i.e. edit_message(content="Hacking...", view=view)

[lost lodge]

ah

works thank you so much

[cyan quail]

allgood

[cinder pilot]

It works

Why doesn't it work with decorator?

Bug?

[fervent cradle]

ok i need help

class botinfoButton(discord.ui.View): 
    @discord.ui.button(label = "Bot Stats", style = discord.ButtonStyle.primary)
    async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        statsembed = discord.Embed(
                 title = "Bot Stats",
                 description = "Here are my currect stats",
                 color = 0x717ac9
        )
        statsembed.add_field(name = "Servers", value = f"`{len(bot.guilds)}`", inline = True)
        statsembed.add_field(name = "Members", value = f"`{sum([len(guild.members)])}`", inline = True)
        statsembed.set_thumbnail(url=str(self.bot.user.display_avatar.url))
        await interaction.response.send_message(embed = statsembed) 

how do i define bot in this..

[cyan quail]

I have no clue lol, people have troubles with decorator more often than they should... maybe I'll check it out but it shouldn't be failing

[lost lodge]

is it possible to make to interaction responses?

[cyan quail]

instead of self.bot, use interaction.client

[fervent cradle]

i SEE!!!

ok

[cyan quail]

Wdym make

[lost lodge]

            await interaction.response.edit_message(content=f"Do you really want to hack {member.name}", view=view)
            hack = await interaction.response.send_message(content=f"Hacking _**{member.name}**_ now.")```

[cyan quail]

Uhhhhhw

So a confirmation?

[lost lodge]

no

so the code we made last had the problem that the button message got edited but in wannted that a second message will get eddited but i would like it that a new message says hacking now...

[cyan quail]

Don't you already have that

Your ip variable

Just change the first message then add another edit

Bot doesn't see member and message content

[cyan quail]

You defined the intents but you never actually applied them

[fervent cradle]

bot = Bot(intents=intents)

[cyan quail]

Yeah

[fervent cradle]

  File "/Volumes/Danya disk/coding/Py-cord/HFD/main.py", line 38, in <module>
    bot = Bot(intents=intents)
TypeError: Bot.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'intents'```

[cyan quail]

Ah it's because your init isn't accepting any kwargs

Instead of in the bot call, you can do it in the super

[cinder pilot]

I removed value and decorator works

[cyan quail]

Ahh

[cyan quail]

Come to think of it, where did you even get value from?

[cinder pilot]

I think I saw docs idk

[cyan quail]

Pass intents=intents.all() inside super.init

[cyan quail]

...inside super.init

[cinder pilot]

I thought it was actually something
Apparently it isn't

[cyan quail]

Rip

Well if it works

[cinder pilot]

I thought name is the name it shows in slash command and value is the variable in async def

[fervent cradle]

right?

[cinder pilot]

super().__init__(intents=discord.Intents.all())

[marsh mesa]

and also self.intents.members = True
I think

[fervent cradle]

Thanks

[cyan quail]

no if you have intents.all, that's literally all

[cinder pilot]

You don't need that if you put discord.Intents.all()

[marsh mesa]

Yeah, I know. But if you do define them like that (eg. with .default()),,then it would need to be with self, no?

Actually, nvm

[cyan quail]

well yeah if you're using default it isn't included

[marsh mesa]

Yeah, I was just aiming at the fact that right there, the intents is local

Anyway, doing it like that is fine

[fervent cradle]

But on_message doesn't work

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    for link in ban_link:
        if link in message.content:
            await message.delete()```

Bot doesn't read message.content

[full basin]

?tag idk

No tag idk found.

[gilded niche]

How can i check if a channel is empty??

[marsh mesa]

I don't think message.content is the problem - ban_link isn't defined within the function

If it is defined - you need the message intent also in your developer portal to read .content

[marsh mesa]

How do you define empty?

[gilded niche]

Sorry i meant if a voice channel is empty, like when there are no members in it

[marsh mesa]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html?highlight=textchannel#discord.VoiceChannel.members

Check if the .members attribute is empty or not 🙂

[pallid trench]

use a dynamic cooldown

[fresh gust]

I dunno how to do that T_T
help?

[pallid trench]

docs exist

[fresh gust]

OKAY!

ill do that

[pallid trench]

you basically just have to write a function that returns a cooldown object

[fresh gust]

aight
thanks!

[marsh mesa]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/ext/commands/api.html?highlight=dynamic cooldown#discord.ext.commands.dynamic_cooldown

[fresh gust]

ooo thanks

[marsh mesa]

Most welcome

[fresh gust]

could you tell me how to trigger the cooldown?

ive never actually figured out how to call async funcs

do i just call it? like you do a normal function?

okay i actually need a bit of help
i cant make sense of the docs 😦

[lost lodge]

hey

my prefixed commands don't work anymore

but slash commands work

[marsh mesa]

Probably you don't have the message_content intent enabled in code / dev portal

[fervent cradle]

Cool

[fervent cradle]

That’s not my code

[lost lodge]

i have enabled all intents

[fervent cradle]

My code is setting presence

[lost lodge]

[marsh mesa]

Also in the devportal?

[fervent cradle]

Learn basic python ig?1!2!

[lost lodge]

yes

[marsh mesa]

Can you create a thread and paste your code so we can take a look?

[lost lodge]

yes

[marsh mesa]

If those intents are set up correctly, it will be a more complicated issue 😄

[daring tendon]

How do I edit messages from slash commands, ctx.edit doesn't work for me

[cyan quail]

you mean the original response message? ctx.edit should work fine...

[marsh mesa]

await ctx.interaction.edit_original_message(content="")

[cyan quail]

yeah that's the shortcut for it

[daring tendon]

works thx

[lost lodge]

is it possible to stop commands stop working (maintenance mode)

[cyan quail]

well

for message commands, you could just have a check in your on_message

[lost lodge]

and slash commands?

[cyan quail]

for slash commands you could have a check at the start of each command, or maybe use before invoke across cogs... hmmm

[lost lodge]

and how

[cyan quail]

i mean you already overrode on message

just have an if/else there

[marsh mesa]

Couldn't you unload the cog in maintenance?

[fervent cradle]

        perms = {
                guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=False),
                # team_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
                # supporter_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
                interaction.user: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
                user: discord.PermissionOverwrite(send_messages=True),
                user: discord.PermissionOverwrite(attach_files=True),
                user: discord.PermissionOverwrite(embed_links=True),
            }
        support_channel = await guild.create_text_channel(name=f"{user.id}", overwrites=perms)```

Want to create a channel wich only the user that clicked the button can see but it does not work

[lost lodge]

this is a good idea

[cyan quail]

you used the user key 3 times, so you only get the final permission (and i think that'd break anyway)

you should use a single PermissionOverwrite object for all three permissions

[fervent cradle]

Oh ok

[lost lodge]

and how??

[marsh mesa]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.Bot.remove_cog

[fervent cradle]

How can I use them all at once?

[cyan quail]

just pass all of them into the same object

[fervent cradle]

This gives me an error

[marsh mesa]

you create several permission overwrites

add them as parameters to the first

discord.PermissionOverwrite(embed_links=True, attach_files=True, ..... ),

[fervent cradle]

Oh Ok

[fervent cradle]

What?

How does it have anything to do with knowing basic python

I literally send you what you were looking for

[lost lodge]

i don't understand it

is it like that:

bot.unload_extension("music")```

[marsh mesa]

Yeah, if your cog is "music"

and not for example "cogs.music"

[lost lodge]

ah

[marsh mesa]

Actually, I think it is "bot.cogs.music" anyway

[serene spindle]

does the "on_member_join" function work?

[marsh mesa]

because it uses:
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html?highlight=error#discord.Bot.cogs

[marsh mesa]

Yes, but it's an event

[lost lodge]

so does it loads files or directories

[woeful spindle]

how do i get the author name & discriminator while in an interaction? i can’t use the ctx param so that won’t work? my only params are self, select, and interaction

[serene spindle]

well this is how my code is looking, but it's not working, what am I doing wrong?

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(member):
    channel = bot.get_channel(965600413376200726)
    emb = discord.Embed(title=f"Welcome {member.mention} to ClearFly", description=f"Read the #965610363842351144 to become a member and gain full access to the server. Thanks for joining!", color = 0x57a4cd)
    await channel.send(embed=emb)

[cyan quail]

do you have the members intent

[serene spindle]

if that's this line of code, yes

intents.members = True

[cyan quail]

and on the dev portal im assuming

[serene spindle]

the server one, yes

all of them actually

[cyan quail]

or just checking, you definitely passed intents=... into your bot creation right

[fervent cradle]

await client.change_presence(activity=discord.Game(name=f"in {len(client.guilds)}"))```AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'change_presence'

[serene spindle]

wdym

[cyan quail]

when you defined your bot

you have to pass intents into that

[serene spindle]

I think I was using the wrong defined line, let me try

[full basin]

Where did you define client

[woeful spindle]

bump

[marsh mesa]

For example sake:
intents = discord.Intents.default() intents.members = True bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=["&", "!"], intents=intents)

[fervent cradle]

main file

intents = discord.Intents.all()
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="?", intents=intents)

[marsh mesa]

Why can't you use ctx?

[fervent cradle]

interaction.user

gives u the user object of the author

[woeful spindle]

ty

[fervent cradle]

so interaction.user.discriminator

[woeful spindle]

interaction.user works alone aha

it gives both

in the format User#Discrim

which is what I was looking for

[full basin]

Because view objects don't have ctx

[serene spindle]

it worked btw, it was just wrong line lol

[marsh mesa]

Happy to hear!

[fresh gust]

Could someone tell me how to trigger the cooldown 😭😭
I'm sorry for being naggy :(

[marsh mesa]

I don't really understand your question - the dynamic cooldown is a function you decide on yourself which conditions apply

[fresh gust]

So assuming I did write the dynamic cooldown function
How do I call it?

Or is it just a wrapper that I can use on any async function?

[cyan quail]

i don't think there's an easy way to just trigger the cooldown without actually running into it

[fervent cradle]

msg = await ctx.respond()
await msg.edit()``` why doesnt this work?

[cyan quail]

because respond returns an interactionresponse

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#interactionresponse

[fervent cradle]

what code should i put if i want to edit after response then

[fresh gust]

It would really helpful if you included some syntax 😬😬

I don't think I'm able to put forth my question too well

Say I wanted to trigger the cooldown inside an if statement
How would I do that?
Just the basic syntax pls I don't want to copy someone else's code

[cyan quail]

im saying there isn't a method to trigger it

[fresh gust]

oh

[fervent cradle]

yo\

how to get the user id of the guy who clicked the button

[cyan quail]

interaction.user

.id

[fervent cradle]

ive tried ctx.edit_original message

or should i do

[fervent cradle]

ok i knew that, then how to get id of the guy who used the slash command

msg.edit_original_message

[cyan quail]

this works, but ctx.edit is the usual shortcut

[cyan quail]

ctx.author.id

[fervent cradle]

i also knew that but there isnt a ctx in a button class

[cyan quail]

oh

[fervent cradle]

y e s

[fresh gust]

what im trying to do is create a dynamic countdown for a currency cog

for example, if a user tries to display someone else's money, and the second user doesnt exist, i dont want the cooldown to trigger

how would i fix that?

the @commands.cooldown(rate = 1, per = 30, type=commands.BucketType.user) wrapper triggers the cooldown no matter the outcome of sending a command

i want the cooldown to be more conditional

[cyan quail]

then subclass the button and add a new argument to the init so you can access it

[fervent cradle]

example..pls..

[cyan quail]

i mean... the library has no built in easy method of triggering the cooldown. There technically might be a way, but you'd have to dig through the code to figure out how to do it... the better solution would unironically be to create your own cooldown system and use that

[fervent cradle]

How to do that!!

[fresh gust]

💀 aight
any tips on how i could go about creating my own cooldown system?

im pretty new to all this...started this January

[fervent cradle]

use a database

mongo db

• datetime.

[cyan quail]

when a user uses the command, store the current unix timestamp they used in a db or other file, then on every command run compare that time to the cooldown you want

[fervent cradle]

exactly

now nelo pls help me before i die

[fresh gust]

ouuu okay
lots of learning coming up 💀

[fervent cradle]

[cyan quail]

are you already subclassing the button?

[fervent cradle]

i mean

yes

if interaction.user.id != button.user.id:
            await interaction.response.send_message("You cant use these buttons", ephemeral = True) ```

im basically tring to do this

[cyan quail]

show me your whole button code

[fervent cradle]

ok

class botinfoButton(discord.ui.View): 
    @discord.ui.button(label = "Bot Stats", style = discord.ButtonStyle.primary)
    async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        if interaction.user.id != button.user.id:
            await interaction.response.send_message("You cant use these buttons", ephemeral = True) 
        statsembed = discord.Embed(
                 title = "Bot Stats",
                 description = "Here are my currect stats",
                 color = 0x717ac9
        )
        statsembed.add_field(name = "Servers", value = f"`{len(interaction.client.guilds)}`", inline = True)
        statsembed.add_field(name = "Members", value = f"`{sum([len(interaction.guild.members)])}`", inline = True)
        statsembed.set_thumbnail(url=str(interaction.client.user.display_avatar.url))
        await interaction.response.send_message(embed = statsembed) ```

[fresh gust]

            def __init__(self, ctx)
                self.ctx = ctx```

[fervent cradle]

dies

[fresh gust]

does this help?

[fervent cradle]

yes

tysm

[fresh gust]

no worries 😄

[fervent cradle]

i totally forgor that exists

[fresh gust]

[fervent cradle]

buttons are very complicated in discord.js

[woeful spindle]

So I have this "rate" command, but how do I make it so the mentions actually work?

[cyan quail]

yeah you basically just need the init, then you can create more arguments to pass in

[full basin]

code

[fervent cradle]

<@getuserid>

[fresh gust]

try using f'{member.mention} a <rating>'

[fervent cradle]

dies

[woeful spindle]

It doesn’t always "rate" a user.

[woeful spindle]

^

[fresh gust]

????????
does it work for you?

[woeful spindle]

.

[woeful spindle]

@commands.command()
    async def rate(self, ctx, *, thing: commands.clean_content):
        """ Rates what you desire """
        rate_amount = random.uniform(0.0, 100.0)
        if thing == "chaze":
            await ctx.send("instant 110/100 :heart:")
        elif thing.lower() == "malachi":
            await ctx.send("i'd rate him a 69/100")
        elif thing.lower() == "arie":
            await ctx.send("arie is a 0/100 bozo, L")
        else:
            await ctx.send(f"I personally decide to rate **{thing}** a **{round(rate_amount, 2)} / 100** :CL_WorryShrug:")

[fresh gust]

send the code, maybe?
I dont really understand what you mean

[fresh gust]

which part are you looking to modify?
the else bit?

[full basin]

Why dont you use a member objct

[woeful spindle]

I just want it so if a member is mentioned, it actually pings them.

[fresh gust]

i wouldve added member to the params
and then used member.mention to mention the user

[full basin]

and make the checks adecuate for that, giving you also the option to mention the user

[fresh gust]

exactly

[fervent cradle]

class botinfoButton(discord.ui.View):
    @discord.ui.button(label = "Bot Stats", style = discord.ButtonStyle.primary)
    async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        def __init__(self, ctx):
            self.ctx = ctx
        if interaction.user.id != self.ctx.user.id:
            await interaction.response.send_message("You cant use these buttons", ephemeral = True) 
        statsembed = discord.Embed(
                 title = "Bot Stats",
                 description = "Here are my currect stats",
                 color = 0x717ac9
        )
        statsembed.add_field(name = "Servers", value = f"`{len(interaction.client.guilds)}`", inline = True)
        statsembed.add_field(name = "Members", value = f"`{sum([len(interaction.guild.members)])}`", inline = True)
        statsembed.set_thumbnail(url=str(interaction.client.user.display_avatar.url))
        await interaction.response.send_message(embed = statsembed) 

is this correct the self.ctx

[fresh gust]

does it work?

[woeful spindle]

So would I make member a param?

[fresh gust]

yep
async def rate(self, ctx, member: discord.Member, ...)

[fervent cradle]

nope lol

AttributeError: 'botinfoButton' object has no attribute 'ctx'

[full basin]

why dont you override interaction_check

[fervent cradle]

?

[woeful spindle]

Could I use something like:

if member in thing:
    #stuff
else:
   #other stuff

[full basin]

async def interaction_check(interaction):
    if interaction.user != self.user:
        await interaction.response.send_message("You cant use this")
        return False
    return True```

And pass user after creating the class

view = MyView()
view.user = ctx.author

Gimme a moment
I'm supposed to be studying for an exam 🤡

[fervent cradle]

o h thank youu

[full basin]

you could also do it in the callback itself

but whatever you decide

[fresh gust]

i dunno how thatd work ngl
you can try 🤷‍♂️
for mentions, use member.mention

[rare ice]

Well if you do this and you have a timeout in the view, the callback is considered invoked and it will reset the timeout time. But if you use interaction_check, it doesn’t.

[fresh gust]

YOU USED THE __INIT__ INSIDE THE CALLBACK!!
dont you want to initialise the class?

[fervent cradle]

OH SHIT....

[full basin]

that too

[fervent cradle]

SO INTERACTION_CHECK IS PRO?

[fresh gust]

i dunno what that means
But it seems unnecessary rn
Edit: not unnecessary (thats just my blindness)

SEEMS LIKE SOMEONES BEEN AT THIS ALL DAY

[full basin]

its not unnecessary lmao. it is doing checks right

[fresh gust]

OKAY my bad

[fervent cradle]

i make interaction_check function inside the button class or..

[fresh gust]

inside the class, outside the callback

[fervent cradle]

OK

ok error

Ignoring exception in view <botinfoButton timeout=180.0 children=1> for item <Button style=<ButtonStyle.primary: 1> url=None disabled=False label='Bot Stats' emoji=None row=None>:

                            super().__init__(timeout = 10)

                                return True #or this (i copypasted my own code)

[fervent cradle]

OK

[fresh gust]

allow = await self.interaction_check(interaction) this isnt legal
you cant call the "button" object
basically you cant assign allow that value

[full basin]

yes you do need the returns lmao

[fresh gust]

is that so? i used the returns for something specific to my code, so i assumed it would not be necessary

[fervent cradle]

    async def interaction_check(interaction):
        if interaction.user != self.ctx.author:
            await interaction.response.send_message("You cant use these buttons", ephemeral = True)
            return False
        return True```

is this cool

i have py def __init__(self, ctx): super().__init__(timeout = 10) self.ctx = ctx above of it

note: im removing timeout

[fresh gust]

you didnt use an else
was that on purpose?

[pallid trench]

the return keyword

[fervent cradle]

do i put it on above or below py @discord.ui.button(label = "Bot Stats", style = discord.ButtonStyle.primary)

[fresh gust]

below! How are you gettinf these colors

[fervent cradle]

ok!

class botinfoButton(discord.ui.View):
    @discord.ui.button(label = "Bot Stats", style = discord.ButtonStyle.primary)
    def __init__(self, ctx):
        self.ctx = ctx
    async def interaction_check(interaction):
        if interaction.user != self.ctx.author:
            await interaction.response.send_message("You cant use these buttons", ephemeral = True)
            return False
        return True```
correct?

[fresh gust]

no
the wrapper goes after the defs

[fervent cradle]

.

[pallid trench]

the interaction check has to be in the class

[fervent cradle]

IT IS A DAM CLASS

[pallid trench]

it has to be a child of the class

[fervent cradle]

I WILL DIE

[pallid trench]

which it is

pardon me

[fresh gust]

how about you dm me

[fervent cradle]

so def init above the @button thing?

[fresh gust]

ill send you the way i did it

[fervent cradle]

o k

[rare ice]

you should know this if you know OOP

#help-rules rule 1

[fervent cradle]

ok!!!!!!!!!

[fluid crystal]

How i cane report a pycord bug?

[shrewd dome]

on the github

[serene spindle]

how do you make a slash command only work for a specific role?

[rare ice]

You can use a check of @commands.has_role(1) replace 1 with your role ID

If the author doesn’t have the role it will error

[serene spindle]

Ok, thank you!

[amber shale]

my slash command is not working but text command is working while using bridge command

code

i just switched from discord.py to pycord

dont know what is the problem here 😦

[silver moat]

did you invite the bot with application.commands scope?

[amber shale]

yeah

it was working perfectly with discord.py

[silver moat]

so the slash command is not appearing or what?

[amber shale]

yes

slash command command not appearing

[silver moat]

where are you loading your cog?

[amber shale]

in a Bot class

[silver moat]

and where is that called?

[amber shale]

sorry i dont know how could i share the code (github is having discord.py code)

[silver moat]

I don't see where you load the cogs

[amber shale]

this file

[silver moat]

ok

[amber shale]

just expand no need to download 🙂

[silver moat]

slash commands sync in on_connect which occurs before on_ready

you load the cogs in on_ready so the commands are not synced

[amber shale]

oh 🤦

[young bone]

you also use ctx.send() change it to ctx.respond()

[wicked helm]

I know I can prevent a non admin from using a command - but can I set a command to be visible to admins only? Or do I have to do that through discord..

[vital blade]

im trying to check in "on_message" event if the user has manage server permission but i get this error

[wicked helm]

Do you want it to only do something if they are a admin/guild manager?

[vital blade]

im trying to do an event that deletes message from the channel if its not an attachment in it, but i dont want admin's message to be deleted

so it would be return if the person has the permission

[silver moat]

it means the message was sent in a non-guild context (e.g. DMs)

[vital blade]

im getting tons of errors like this

same error tons of times

[silver moat]

yeah, so message.author can return a discord.User or a discord.Member

[vital blade]

on dm it returns discord.User?

[silver moat]

you can check it with

if isinstance(message.author, discord.User):
  pass

[silver moat]

yes

[vital blade]

oh

if i do like

if (not message.guild):
 return

its okay?

[silver moat]

that works

so you want it to be in a DM?

[vital blade]

no. in guild

[silver moat]

if (not None):
    return

that looks like you want it to be in a DM, right?

oh nvm I'm just stupid

[vital blade]

its media only cog. i want it to check in a server channel if the message is an attachment

but i dont want admin's message to be deleted

i tried it and still get the same error

[silver moat]

then try this?

[vital blade]

i dont see any error coming anymore so ty

[silver moat]

yw

[worldly schooner]

Can someone explain to me what are clusters and shards?

Or give me something like a tutorial vid

[round rivet]

global commands

[lone quail]

How can I get my config file from the main file in a cog? I need the guild ID for the slash command decorator?

@discord.slash_command(guild_ids=[config["guild_ID"]], description="Times out a member") I need config in here

[silver moat]

so your file structure is something like:

main.py
config.json
cogs folder
- cog1
- cog2
```?

[lone quail]

yep

i use yml for config but the same applies

https://sxcu.net/5CW_ScZNL

[silver moat]

so how do you access config from main.py?

[lone quail]

I haven't got that far yet xD

[silver moat]

what python yaml lib are you using?

[lone quail]

https://pypi.org/project/PyYAML/

i didn't really want to copy the import code but if i have to i can

[cinder pilot]

Is it possible to make certain slash commands show up only for admins like eg (/ban) but other users wouldn't be able to see it

[silver moat]

with open('../../config.yaml', 'r') as f:

[lone quail]

oh, i have all this...

def loadConfig():
    configFile = ""

    try:
        with open('config.yml', "r") as f:
            configFile = yaml.load(f, Loader=yaml.FullLoader)
    except:
        defaultConfig = open('defaultConfig.yml', "r")
        f = open('config.yml', 'w')
        f.write(defaultConfig.read())
    finally:
        with open('config.yml', "r") as f:
            configFile = yaml.load(f, Loader=yaml.FullLoader)
    
    return configFile

ah, that's because of the default config

i copied it from an old project blindly

[silver moat]

with permissions v2, yeshttps://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.commands.default_permissions , but admins in that server can change it

[cinder pilot]

thanks

This won't work if you want only users with specific roles to be able to see right?

[silver moat]

no, but admins can always make it to

[cinder pilot]

oh ok

thanks for your help

[silver moat]

np

[fervent cradle]

Why i've got this error

discord.errors.Forbidden: 403 Forbidden (error code: 50007): Cannot send messages to this user

[silver moat]

because they have this off

[fervent cradle]
