so I run node index.js it's supposed to shown Logged in as "my bot name here" on the VSC terminal and should be online on the discord, but it doesn't and I can't figure it out, mind anyone help
Formatting will save your life, Bro: Also, I'd recommend less comments. It's a lot of noise. I refactored this stuff out. Look how much nicer your code looks:
const { token, prefix: PREFIX } = require('./config.json');
const { Collection, Client, Intents } = require('discord.js');
const client = new Client({ intents: [Intents.FLAGS.GUILDS, Intents.FLAGS.GUILD_MESSAGES] })
client.commands = new Collection();
client.on('message', message => {
if (message.author.bot) return
if (!message.content.startsWith(PREFIX)) return
const args = message.content.slice(PREFIX.length).split(' ');
const command = args.shift().toLowerCase();
if (command === 'ping') {
message.channel.send('pong');
}
})
client.on('ready', () => {
console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!`);
})
client.login(token);
