I'm making a Discord bot, and when a user joins a specific channel, I want my bot to move them to a different channel. I'm not too sure how to do it. I've tried doing newState.member.voice.setChannel(channel) and it doesn't seem to work. Though, I'm assuming it's outdated, but no errors were thrown when I did this, so I'm not too sure, can anyone help?

I am using this Replit demo to create a Discord bot: https://replit.com/#amasad/Discordpy-Music-Bot
I followed the instructions, and my bot is capable of logging in and staying online. The only thing wrong is it won't respond to any of my commands, not even if I add a simple print function.
If it's not in the code, I could have missed something in the Discord bot's permissions, but it can read and write messages as an administrator. I even went into the specific permissions of the server and enabled read/write messages, join voice, etc. Any idea what's going wrong?
I have checked out the repl you just mentioned above. But without reading your code it's not possible for us to know what you are doing wrong, so when you are asking a question please include your source code. And checkout this to know how to ask a good question: https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask.
The problem you just mentioned above can occur because of intents, I may or may not be right but since I didn't read your code this is the only thing I can think of at the moment. To fix this what you have to do is, add intents in your client definition. For example:
from discord.ext import commands
import discord
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=discord.Intents.all())
After this, go to discord developers portal at https://discord.com/developers/applications and open your bot application. Then from the left tab go to Bot and you will see a section called Privileged Gateway Intents and then turn on the intents. This should fix your problem.
I have a Discord bot programmed in Discord.js and it works absolutely fine for sending messages in any channel it can access.
However, on one specific channel on one specific server, it is unable to send messages, react, or do anything at all. The bot has Administrator-level access and I have gone in and checked every single permission on, and yet it still doesn't work.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?
So, based on what's provided, I can't really give a concrete answer -- especially without an error message. However, I can take guesses. So here's my biggest guess:
How are you fetching the channel? Are you using the GuildChannelManager#fetch() method, or are you using the GuildChannelManager#cache.get() method (guild.channels.fetch or guild.channels.cache.get)?
Are you getting it by name, ID, etc.? If by name, ensure you've got only one channel with that name, and that you're fetching the channel from the guild, not the client. If by ID, ensure you're using the correct ID.
So my bot able to go through channels and clear specific messages, but now it can't do it because of missing access. I made an another bot and fired up the same code. And it worked. How is this possible? I don't think there is a problem with the code, but with the bot itself.
Ensure that your bot has permissions set in discord.com/developers/applications - Under the bot tab make sure you've checked all the appropriate boxes. If you are truly running identical code that is most likely your issue.
We made a mistake on our Discord server by using a free tool for managing roles. I won't mention it by name. The tool doesn't allow us to edit the original embed that contains all of the emojis and associated roles. As well, Discord doesn't seem to allow you to edit another user's messages, even if you own the server. And that makes good sense.
So what we're left with is creating a new roles message that looks like the old one and adding the reactions to it. However, we don't want everyone to have to go back and redo their reactions since moving the message wouldn't do anything to their existing roles. We still want to be able to see who reacted to the original message, and preferably be able to transfer the original reactions. I would like to know if it is possible to copy the old reactions over to the new message. I kind of think that Discord won't allow it in keeping with the model that you can't do something that a user would do for themselves. But I thought I would ask here first.
Our server management bot is built using JDA and runs on a Linux server.
No it's not possible to transfer over Discord reactions to a different message.
Use better botsite that can edit embed message or bot message
you can create here: https://botghost.com/?invite=981659393298923621
Go to embed builder and try to make a new post there and read how to edit bot post that you posted using this botghost
I want to implement a check to see if there are no members in the voice channel the bot is in, so it can automatically disconnect and not stay there till I disconnect it or someone else does.
I had been searching around for any example, but found no relevant answers to my questions.
Anyone that can help?
I suggest using the voiceStateUpdate event. In the event, check if there are members in the voicechannel. If not, then make the bot leave.
