this is the code please check it out and tell what is the error
on the git error page of this people were asking about it but I dint understand that

Have to make a lot of code changes, here is what the final result was below, basically the issue was that there were a lot of variances in the code and how the code was handled. Needed to add checks to the code to help it move along. Added the member id to the embed to help the bot get that id when it needed it later.
command.js file
const mentionedMember = message.mentions.members.first();
if (!mentionedMember || mentionedMember.user.bot) {
const embed = new MessageEmbed()

message.reply({

message.delete();

Message content must be a non-empty string when editing message

I wanted to make a command to make the bot return its connection status to the database, but I got an error and I am a little confused now.
RangeError [MESSAGE_CONTENT_TYPE]: Message content must be a non-empty string.
const { MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js');
const quick = require('quick.db');
module.exports = {
name: 'ping',
aliases: [],
description: 'Get bot ping.',
permissions: [],
async execute(message, client) {
const ping = await getDBPingData();
const messagePing = Date.now();
const msg = await message.channel.send('Loading...');
const endMessagePing = Date.now() - messagePing;
const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setDescription(
`
Database ping data:
- Fetch ping: \`${ping.endGet}ms\`
- Wright ping: \`${ping.endWright}ms\`
- Avrage ping: \`${ping.avarage}ms\`
Message ping: \`${endMessagePing}ms\`
`
)
.setColor('GREEN')
.setTimestamp();
msg.edit({
content: '',
embed,
});
},
};
async function getDBPingData() {
// get the fetch data ping
const startGet = Date.now();
await quick.get('QR=.');
const endGet = Date.now() - startGet;
// get the wright data ping
const startWright = Date.now();
await quick.set('QR=.', Buffer.from(startWright.toString()).toString('base64'));
const endWright = Date.now() - startWright;
// avrage ping time
const avarage = (endGet + endWright) / 2;
try {
quick.delete('QR=.');
} catch (error) {}
return { endGet, endWright, avarage };
}
I am using discord.js v13, and the packages in use for this command are: discord.js and quick.db.

In v13, messages sent by bots now support up to 10 embeds. As a result, the embed option was removed and replaced with an embeds array, which must be in the options object, so your message edit should be msg.edit({ embeds: [embed] }).
If you also want to remove the previous text (Loading...), you need to add content: null as providing an empty string ('') as the content will throw a RangeError.
msg.edit({
content: null,
embeds: [embed],
});

Try this:
// only need to edit embed in an embeds array
msg.edit({ embeds: [embed] })

"The reply to this interaction has not been sent or deferred." Is an error I keep getting on discord.js v13

So I've just completed writing a ping.js, echo.js, guildMemberAdd.js, and guildMemberRemove.js and I'm moving on to writing a ban.js and kick.js and currently all slash commands work except the latest commands which is kick and ban. I keep getting the error that "The reply to this interaction has not been sent or deferred." and I have no idea how to find a solution to it. I originally had it written "return interaction.followUp" and I switched them all to "await interaction.followUp" hoping it'd be the solution the problem, but it seems like that wasn't it. I originally also had it written "run: async (interaction) => {" but then I get the error that "command.execute" is not a function so I switched it to "async execute (intereaction) {" I've also tried a couple of other things, but still can't seem to find a fix, does anyone have any idea on this? I'll leave my interactionCreate.js and kick.js below
interactionCreate.js
module.exports = {
name: "interactionCreate",
async execute(interaction) {
if (!interaction.isCommand()) return;
const command = interaction.client.commands.get(interaction.commandName);
if (!command) return;
try {
await command.execute(interaction);
} catch (err) {
if (err) console.error(err);
await interaction.reply({
content: "An error occured while executing that command.",
ephemeral: true
});
}
}
}
kick.js
const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require('#discordjs/builders');
const { MessageEmbed } = require("discord.js")
module.exports = {
data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
.setName("kick")
.setDescription("Allows the admin or owner to kick the member.")
.addUserOption((option) => option.setName('user').setDescription('The person who you want to kick').setRequired(true))
.addStringOption(option => option.setName('reason').setDescription('Reason to kick member').setRequired(true)),
async execute (interaction) {
if(!interaction.member.permissions.has("KICK_MEMBERS")) return interaction.followUp({ content: "You do not have the power to kick that member.", ephemeral: true })
const user = interaction.options.getUser('user')
const member = interaction.guild.members.cache.get(user.id) || await interaction.guild.members.fetch(user.id).catch(err => {})
if(!member) return interaction.followUp({ content: "😅 | Well this is awkward... I'm unable to get details related to given member.", ephemeral: true });
const reason = interaction.options.getString('reason')
if(!member.kickable || member.user.id === member.user.id)
await interaction.followUp({ content: "😡 | I am unable to kick this member", ephemeral: true });
if(interaction.member.roles.highest.position <= member.roles.highest.position)
await interaction.followUp({ content: 'This member has equal or higher power as you so I cannot kick them.', ephemeral: true })
const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setDescription(`**${member.user.tag}** is kicked out from the cookout for \`${reason}\``)
.setColor("#5104DB")
.setFooter({ text: "Kick Member" })
.setTimestamp()
await interaction.reply(`You are kicked from **\`${interaction.guild.name}\`** for \`${reason}\``).catch(err => {})
member.kick();
await interaction.followUp({ embeds: [ embed ]})
}
}

The error comes from line 19 and 22
await interaction.followUp({ content: "😡 | I am unable to kick this member", ephemeral: true });
await interaction.followUp({ content: 'This member has equal or higher power as you so I cannot kick them.', ephemeral: true })
You attempt to followUp to an interaction, with no reply as the error message suggests. You can change this to reply as you do further down in the code, which will work.
Note: you will likely receive unexpected errors if you don't return or stop the code when the conditions above are met

Is there a way to check for channel overwrites? (Discord.js v12)

I was creating a command for locking a channel and used the .updateOverwrite() method to do this. With the code below I was trying to check if the channel already has VIEW_CHANNEL set to false and therefore respond with an error message. However, even if the channel has already been locked, it still 'locks' it again and skips the check, this check only seems to get triggered when the channel is unlocked. Would there be some other way to check for the channel overwrites?
if (message.member.hasPermission('MANAGE_CHANNELS')) {
if (!message.guild.roles.everyone.permissions.has('VIEW_CHANNEL')) {
const errorEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setDescription(`❌ '${message.channel.name}' is already locked.`)
.setColor('RED');
message.channel.send(errorEmbed);
}
else{
message.channel.updateOverwrite(message.channel.guild.roles.everyone, { VIEW_CHANNEL: false }).then(() => {
const msgEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setDescription(`✅ '${message.channel.name}' has been locked.`)
.setColor('GREEN');
message.channel.send(msgEmbed);
});
}
}
else {
const warningEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setDescription('🔒 Sorry, you do not have sufficient permissions to do this.')
.setColor('YELLOW');
message.channel.send(warningEmbed);
}

You need to check the permissions for the channel, you're currently checking global role permissions. Here is the updated code:
if (message.member.hasPermission('MANAGE_CHANNELS')) {
if (!message.channel.permissionsFor(message.guild.roles.everyone).has('VIEW_CHANNEL')) {
const errorEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setDescription(`❌ '${message.channel.name}' is already locked.`)
.setColor('RED');
message.channel.send(errorEmbed);
}
else{
message.channel.updateOverwrite(message.channel.guild.roles.everyone, { VIEW_CHANNEL: false }).then(() => {
const msgEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setDescription(`✅ '${message.channel.name}' has been locked.`)
.setColor('GREEN');
message.channel.send(msgEmbed);
});
}
}
else {
const warningEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setDescription('🔒 Sorry, you do not have sufficient permissions to do this.')
.setColor('YELLOW');
message.channel.send(warningEmbed);
}
