How can I edit an sent embed with my bot? First I contructed an embed:
const countdownEmbed = {
color: 0x0099ff,
title:('Countdown'),
author: {
name:`${user_name}`,
icon_url: `${user_pfp}`,
},
description: 'Your countdown starts in **3 seconds**',
thumbnail: {
url: `${client_pfp}`,
},
timestamp: new Date(),
footer: {
text: `© ${client_name}`,
icon_url: `${client_pfp}`,
},
};
Then I made a new embed:
const countdownEmbed2 = {
title:("New title!"),
description: 'Your countdown starts in **2 seconds**',
};
After creating the "updated" embed I tried to send the message and then edit it after a second:
message.channel.send({ embed: countdownEmbed })
.then((msg)=> {
setTimeout(function(){
msg.edit(countdownEmbed2);
}, 1000)
});
My code only sends the initial embed and does not edit it. But if I change the CountEmbed2 in msg.edit(countdownEmbed2) to a string, it will edit the message itself in Discord, but not the embed. Is there a way to fix this? Or is there an easier way to edit an embed?
I am unsure why but after my test, I concluded that your issue is caused by the way you're writing your embeds.
if you use the MessageEmbed constructor (if you're using discord.js v11 it's RichEmbed) it'll work.
This worked while testing it out:
const countdownEmbed = new MessageEmbed()
.setDescription('test1')
const countdownEmbed2 = new MessageEmbed()
.setDescription('test2')
.setColor('RED')
message.channel.send({ embed: countdownEmbed }).then((msg) => {
setTimeout(function () {
msg.edit(countdownEmbed2);
}, 1000)
})
Here is an example of an edit
const editEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setDescription('this is the old description')
message.channel.send(editEmbed).then((m) =>
m.edit(editEmbed.setDescription('this is the new description')))
let me know if this worked

i try make embed
const exampleEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
.setAuthor({ name: `name : ${name}` })
.setColor(0x0099ff)
.setTitle(`title: ${title}`)
.setDescription(`content : ${content}`)
make embed!!
looking for discordjs14 guide
// Resending a received embed
const receivedEmbed = message.embeds[0];
const exampleEmbed = EmbedBuilder.from(receivedEmbed).setTitle('New title');
channel.send({ embeds: [exampleEmbed] });
----------------------------------------------
// Editing the embedded message content
const exampleEmbed = new EmbedBuilder()
.setTitle('Some title')
.setDescription('Description after the edit');
message.edit({ embeds: [exampleEmbed] });
i try to get message.embed[0]
async execute(interaction) {
...
console.log(interaction.embed[0])

}
error:
i hope search title and edit embed...
If you want to send an embed and edit it on an event, You should make thay message a var.
const channel = <client>.channels.cache.get('channel_id');
let message = await channel.send({embeds: [exampleEmbed] });
// editing it
await message.edit({ embeds: [exampleEmbed1] });
Notes: Replace <client> with what you declared your client. it could be client , bot or anything you have declared it.
fist you need to make embed message
const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
.setColor("Your Color")
.setTitle("YourTitle")
.setThumbnail("your google image address")
.setImage("Your Google Image address")
.setDescription("Your Description")
and so much more stuff just type .set or .add it will show you so many of them
and for send the embed
message.reply({embeds : [embed]});
I have made a bot command that
replies with a select menu
waits for the selection to be made
edits the reply to have a buttons instead of the select menu
waits for a button to be pressed
edits the reply again
It works, however, whenever I edit a reply's message components like that, immediately after the edit, the bot receives a new interaction, that does not go anywhere.
The result is that the new component will act like it was pressed, giving me the loading symbol, until the interaction has failed. Then the component works fine, just the red "The application did not respond" text remains.
This is of course fairly annoying and also confusing and ugly for the user. So I'm hoping someone can tell me whether I can do anything about it, and if so what exactly.
Here's is a very simple example command that demonstrates this behaviour:
client.on('interactionCreate', async interaction => {
console.log('interaction received');
const { commandName } = interaction;
if (commandName === 'test') {
const select = new MessageActionRow().addComponents(
new MessageSelectMenu().setCustomId('select').setPlaceholder(`Select a match to tip on.`)
.addOptions([ {label: `select me`, value: `testValue`} ])
)
await interaction.reply({ content: 'Please make a selection', components: [select], ephemeral: true });
const collectedSelect = await interaction.channel?.awaitMessageComponent({ componentType: 'SELECT_MENU'})
console.log(collectedSelect.values[0]);
const button = new MessageActionRow().addComponents(
new MessageButton().setCustomId(`button`).setLabel('push me').setStyle('PRIMARY')
)
await interaction.editReply({ content: 'Thanks for making a selection. Now, please push the button.', components: [button], ephemeral: true });
const collectedButton = await interaction.channel?.awaitMessageComponent({ componentType: 'BUTTON'})
console.log(collectedButton.customId);
return interaction.editReply({ content: 'Thanks for pushing the button.', components: [], ephemeral: true });
}
}
Oh, well. I was looking for something else and found this little guy that solves my problem: update()
It just needs to be run on the interaction collected with .awaitMessageComponent(), not the original interaction (like in my op).
It looks like this then:
const select = new MessageActionRow().addComponents(
new MessageSelectMenu().setCustomId('select').setPlaceholder(`Select a match to tip on.`)
.addOptions([ {label: `select me`, value: `testValue`} ])
)
await interaction.reply({ content: 'Please make a selection', components: [select], ephemeral: true });
const collectedSelect = await interaction.channel?.awaitMessageComponent({ componentType: 'SELECT_MENU'})
console.log(collectedSelect.values[0]);
const button = new MessageActionRow().addComponents(
new MessageButton().setCustomId(`button`).setLabel('push me').setStyle('PRIMARY')
)
await collectedSelect.update({ content: 'Thanks for making a selection. Now, please push the button.', components: [button], ephemeral: true });
const collectedButton = await interaction.channel?.awaitMessageComponent({ componentType: 'BUTTON'})
console.log(collectedButton.customId);
return collectedButton.update({ content: 'Thanks for pushing the button.', components: [], ephemeral: true });
I honestly, do not know why .editReply() wouldn't already work, but whatever I guess.
I've been working on using JS to create a simple Discord Bot for my server. I have been trying to have it send a message with the rules of the server embedded into it. When the /rules command is run, I receive a notification to state a message was sent, but there is no message to be seen on any device. I am able to view message history so I do not understand why there is no visible embed or message.
My code was made using Autocode's Discord Embed Builder, and has worked for other embeds within the same Bot. A link to view the full embed code in the Builder and see how it is supposed to look is here.
It would be much easier to learn to make these yourself than using a generator and trying to reverse engineer how their coding works:
a simple example would be this:
const {
MessageEmbed
} = require('discord.js')
module.exports = {
name: "rules",
description: "Post rules",
run: async (client, interaction) => {
// build the message
const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setColor('#00ff00') //change the color if you want
.setTitle('Some Title')
.setDescription(`Some description`)
.addFields({
name: 'Rule Name/Number',
value: 'Rule text',
inline: true
}, {
name: 'Rule Name/Number',
value: `Rule text`,
inline: true
}, {
name: 'Rule Name/Number',
value: 'Rule text',
inline: true
})
// add more if needed
// send the message
interaction.channel.send({
embeds: [embed]
})
// confirm they are sent and complete the interaction only visible to you
return interaction.reply({
content: 'Done',
ephemeral: true
})
}
}
Ive seen many discord embed codes like this:
(This is an old question and im new to coding so...)
const { MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js');
const exampleEmbed = new MessageEmbed()
.setColor('#0099ff')
.setTitle('Some title')
.setURL('https://discord.js.org/')
.setAuthor('Some name', 'https://i.imgur.com/AfFp7pu.png', 'https://discord.js.org')
.setDescription('Some description here')
.setThumbnail('https://i.imgur.com/AfFp7pu.png')
.addFields(
{ name: 'Regular field title', value: 'Some value here' },
{ name: '\u200B', value: '\u200B' },
{ name: 'Inline field title', value: 'Some value here', inline: true },
{ name: 'Inline field title', value: 'Some value here', inline: true },
)
.addField('Inline field title', 'Some value here', true)
.setImage('https://i.imgur.com/AfFp7pu.png')
.setTimestamp()
.setFooter('Some footer text here', 'https://i.imgur.com/AfFp7pu.png');
channel.send({ embeds: [exampleEmbed] });
So, what i dont understand is what is the trigger? Like you're supposed to type .ping for pong right? so what do i type to get my bot type this embed?
The way you're sending your embed is(afaik) specific to version 13 of discord.js and you most likely haven't updated discord.js yet:
channel.send({ embeds: [exampleEmbed] });
the version I am currently using is 12.5.3 .
Check your version of discord.js in package.json and if the version is not 13 or above, update or if you want to stick with version 12.5.3 try some of the methods below:
channel.send( exampleEmbed );
Or like this:
channel.send({ embed: exampleEmbed });
Sending the embed like this: "{ embeds: [exampleEmbed] }" makes discord think you are sending an empty message and therefore it doesn't send anything.
This code is meant to be inside an event handler (such as on.message). If that code is already inside an event handler (except for this const { MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js');, it should go at the top), and if it is still not sending, then you should change this line:
channel.send({ embeds: [exampleEmbed] });
to
message.channel.send(exampleEmbed)
There is no trigger in the code sample you provided. You need to have a listener for the message event or interactionCreate event to listen to traditional message-based commands and slash commands. You can pass in handlers into these listeners and respond to command usages.
Since it looks like you're reading the discord.js guide, I would suggest reading from the start, where you would be introduced to how to handle messages first.
To send it, just use a message event. Like this:
const { MessageEmbed, Client } = require('discord.js');
const client = new Client();
client.on('message', msg => {
const { channel, content } = msg;
if(msg.content === 'someCommand') {
const exampleEmbed = new MessageEmbed()
//setProperties...
channel.send({ embeds: [exampleEmbed] });
}
})
client.login('[TOKEN_HERE'])
What's happening here is that the client is receiving a Message object when someone messages (msg). We then use the channel and content properties to evaluate the command, and send the embed if the command is correct. I took out the property settings to save space. You can add them back.
I dont get what is wrong here in my code.
I used my token where I typed my token goes here
The error :
/home/runner/my-server-bot/index.js:43
client.login('I will hide my token');
^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier
Can anyone explain to me what's wrong with that code?
client.on('guildMemberAdd', msg => { // Commands Go Inside The client.on('message',
msg =>
msg.guild.channels.get('861132489584934926').send({embed: {
color: 3447003,
author: {
name: client.user.username,
icon_url: client.user.avatarURL
},
title: "Welcome To OP COMMUNITY!",
description: "Have Fun in the server :)",
timestamp: new Date(),
footer: {
icon_url: client.user.avatarURL,
text: "Builded by Oplikoo#9999"
} }
client.login('my token was here');
Your code was really messy! I decided to do a complete rework on it.
I explain how it works with notes in the code below.
client.on('guildMemberAdd', member => { // We don't get msg from this, we get member.
let channel = client.channels.get('861132489584934926'); // Getting the channel
let embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed() // A different form of making an embed
.setAuthor({
name: client.user.username,
icon_url: client.user.avatarURL
})
.setColor('#447003')
.setTitle('Welcome To OP COMMUNITY')
.setDescription('Have Fun in the server :)')
.setTimestamp(new Date())
.setFooter({
icon_url: client.user.avatarURL,
text: 'Builded by Oplikoo#9999'
});
channel.send(embed); // We send the embed we just created});
});
client.login('my token was here');
