How do you make a bot that sends a welcome embed and deletes the embed after a few seconds in discord.py

Here's my code but it seems like it doesn't work. I'm so sorry but, I'm still a newbie but, I would very much appreciate your help and critics.
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=prefix,
intents=discord.Intents.all())
#client.event
async def on_message_join(member):
channel = client.get_channel(channelid)
count = member.guild.member_count
embed=discord.Embed(title=f"Welcome to {member.guild.name}", description=f"Hello there {member.name}!", footer=count)
embed.set_thumbnail(url=member.avatar_url)
await channel.send(embed=embed)
time.sleep(5)
message.delete(embed)

The correct discord event to catch that a person joins your discord is:
async def on_member_join(member: discord.Member):
rather than on_message_join
To easily delete the message you can first make it a string:
msg = await channel.send(embed=embed)
then get it's id by:
msg_id = msg.id
then fetch it:
msg_todel = await channel.fetch_message(int(msg_id))
then delete it:
await msg_todel.delete()

Just use delete_after=seconds, this exactly what's your wanted
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=prefix,
intents=discord.Intents.all())
#client.event
async def on_message_join(member):
channel = client.get_channel(channelid)
count = member.guild.member_count
embed=discord.Embed(title=f"Welcome to {member.guild.name}", description=f"Hello there {member.name}!", footer=count)
embed.set_thumbnail(url=member.avatar_url)
await channel.send(embed=embed, delete_after=5)

According to the discord.py docs, you could edit the message object after 5 seconds and then just set the new embed parameter to None, this seems to be what you're after here.
Below is a way you can alter your code to do this.
import discord
import asyncio # You will need to import this as well
from discord.ext import commands
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=prefix,
intents=discord.Intents.all())
#client.event
async def on_message_join(member):
channel = client.get_channel(channelid)
count = member.guild.member_count
embed=discord.Embed(title=f"Welcome to {member.guild.name}", description=f"Hello there {member.name}!", footer=count)
embed.set_thumbnail(url=member.avatar_url)
message_object = await channel.send(embed=embed) # You can save the message sent by attaching it to a variable. You don't need to send more calls to refetch it.
'''
time.sleep(5) <--- You should not use time.sleep() as it will stop your entire bot from doing anything else during these 5 seconds.
Use asyncio.sleep() as a better alternative. Does the same thing as time.sleep() but other functions of your bot will still function, this is called a blocking function.
'''
asyncio.sleep(5)
await message_object.edit(embed = None)
Unless you want the entire message deleted, then you can just use delete_after in order to obtain this.
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=prefix,
intents=discord.Intents.all())
#client.event
async def on_message_join(member):
channel = client.get_channel(channelid)
count = member.guild.member_count
embed=discord.Embed(title=f"Welcome to {member.guild.name}", description=f"Hello there {member.name}!", footer=count)
embed.set_thumbnail(url=member.avatar_url)
await channel.send(embed=embed, delete_after = 5) # Just add this parameter at the end.

Discord.py - Comment when a reaction occurs to a specific users message

Morning all.
I'm trying to create a bit of a troll for a laugh in our discord.
I've hit a bit of a stumbling block. I've it working if the reaction happens in a certain channel, however I would like it so basically - If someone reacts to this other users messages in this channel - the bot throws a message up
This is what i've got so far:
import os
from discord.ext import commands
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '!')
#bot.event
async def on_ready():
print('Bot is logged in.')
#bot.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.author.id != 970327405824708668:
return
#bot.event
async def on_raw_reaction_add(payload):
reaction_channel = payload.channel_id
print(reaction_channel)
# Checking if the channel is the one want we want
if reaction_channel != 965560397157519371:
# If not, exit
return
else:
channel = bot.get_channel(payload.channel_id)
await channel.send('Hello')
# else:
# print('Nope Still not working')
bot.run(os.environ['bot_token'])

How to stop repetitive messages, and the token is changed, but it doesn't run

I started learning python today and made a Discord bot. I have a few problems:
If message.author == was used in the on_message, but the bot continued to reply to itself.
Afterwards, a new bot was created with a new token and the code didn't work.
I searched a lot on this site and Google. I didn't find any solution. It's okay to modify my code. Everything is from the internet, so it can be a mess. Please help me.
import discord
import asyncio
from discord.ext import commands
client = discord.Client()
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
#bot.event
async def on_ready():
print('Loggend in Bot: ', bot.user.name)
print('Bot id: ', bot.user.id)
print('connection was succesful!')
print('=' * 30)
#client.event
async def on_message(message) :
if on_message.content.startswith('!의뢰'):
msg = on_message.channel.content[3:]
embed = discord.Embed(title = "브리핑", description = msg, color = 0x62c1cc)
embed.set_thumbnail(url="https://i.imgur.com/UDJYlV3.png")
embed.set_footer(text="C0de")
await on_message.channel.send("새로운 의뢰가 들어왔습니다", embed=embed)
await client.process_commands(message)
client.run("My bot's token.")

Your code was messy, but it should work now. I included comments to let you know how everything works. I think the good starting point to making your own bot is reading documentation. Especially Quickstart that shows you a simple example with explanation.
Write !example or hello to see how it works.
import discord
import asyncio
from discord.ext import commands
# you created 'client' and 'bot' and used them randomly. Create one and use it for everything:
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!") # you can change commands prefix here
#client.event
async def on_ready(): # this will run everytime bot is started
print('Logged as:', client.user)
print('ID:', client.user.id)
print('=' * 30)
#client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.author == client.user:
return
if message.content.startswith('hello'): # you can change what your bot should react to
await message.channel.send("Hello! (This is not a command. It will run everytime a user sends a message and it starts with `hello`).")
await client.process_commands(message)
#client.command()
async def example(ctx): # you can run this command by sending command name and prefix before it, (e.g. !example)
await ctx.send("Hey! This is an example command.")
client.run("YOUR TOKEN HERE")

Discord command bot doesn't responde (python)

i have a problem with my discord bot: when i type on discord $ping he doesn't response me pong and i don't know why, i just check the bot have the admin role so he can write, i'm using VsCode and he didn't give me nothing error.
Here is the code
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import requests
import json
import random
client = discord.Client()
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='$')
#bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
await ctx.channel.send("pong")
#client.event
async def on_ready():
print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))
client.run("XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX")

The problem is, that you are defining the command with bot.command, but you only do client.run. To fix this, either choose a client, or a bot, but not both, like this if you choose bot for example:
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import json
import random
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='$')
#bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
await ctx.channel.send("pong")
#bot.event
async def on_ready():
print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(bot))
bot.run(Token)
Also don't use requests, since it's blocking.

Improper token passed

I'm following a basic tutorial for a Python Discord bot on YouTube and my code is underneath. It says:
discord.errors.LoginFailure: Improper token has been passed.
Before anyone asks, yes I have put in the bot token, not the id or secret.
import discord
from discord.ext.commands import Bot
from discord.ext import commands
import asyncio
import time
Client = discord.Client()
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "!")
#client.event
async def on_ready():
print("Bot is ready!")
#client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.content == "cookie":
await client.send_message(message.channel, ":cookie:")
client.run("token is here")

For me, my bot.py file looks like this:
import os
import discord
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()
TOKEN = os.getenv('DISCORD_TOKEN')
client = discord.Client()
#client.event
async def on_ready():
print(f'{client.user} has connected to Discord!')
client.run(TOKEN)
and since I used env (environment) modules, I created a new file with an empty name and with the .env extension in the same path in a folder. The env file only has this line of code:
DISCORD_TOKEN=DFHKJAhka7fdsKHJASDFk1jhaf5afd.HASDFafd23FHdfa_adfahHJKADF32W
So the problem for me was I was using brackets around the token code and after I removed it, it worked!
My code when it had brackets:
DISCORD_TOKEN={DFHKJAhka7fdsKHJASDFk1jhaf5afd.HASDFafd23FHdfa_adfahHJKADF32W}

Make sure you grab the "Token" from the "Bot" page in the Discord development site, rather than the "Secret" from the "General Information" page.
I was having the same problem. My issue was solved by using the correct token from the Discord app page. I was using the "Secret" from the 'General Information' page (which generated the error in the original post for me) instead of the "Token" from the "Bot" page.
As sheneb said in the comment to this, this answer (probably) won't help the OP (since the question now says "Before anyone asks, yes I have put in the bot token, not the id or secret"). However, I found this question/page when searching for the answer, and my issue was solved with this information.

The same thing happened to me, but it started working when I went to the developer page and refreshed the token. Then I just put the new token in the code and it worked!
Maybe the same will work for you...?

You should be able to get it to work by doing this:
from discord.ext.commands import Bot
from discord.ext import commands
import asyncio
import time
Client = discord.Client()
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "!")
#client.event
async def on_ready():
print("Bot is ready!")
#client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.content == "cookie":
await message.client.send(":cookie:")
client.run("token is here", bot=True)
I do this sometimes, but also, check to make sure you have fully created your bot by taking a look at the "bot" tab on your developer page.
I also made a fix for your message send line. It was out of date ;).

Try this:
from discord.ext.commands import Bot
from discord.ext import commands
import asyncio
import time
Client = discord.Client()
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "!")
#client.event
async def on_ready():
print("Bot is ready!")
#client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.content == "cookie":
await message.client.send(":cookie:")
client.run("TOKEN HERE. PUT YOUR TOKEN HERE ;)")

from discord.ext.commands import Bot
from discord.ext import commands
import asyncio
import time
Client = discord.Client()
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "!")
#client.event
async def on_ready():
print("Bot is ready!")
#client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.content == "cookie":
await message.client.send(":cookie:")
client.run("PUT YOUR TOKEN HERE")
