Thank you so much for starting this series. I really wanted to learn discord bot development since a really long time but the outdated tutorials was demotivating. I just found your ongoing series today. There are 4 videos out already. I am writing this comment after completing the 1st video. The explanation was amazing, clear and to the point. After writing this comment, I am going to next videos in the series and completing those too. I will be eagerly waiting for new videos. I have also joined your discord server and subscribed. I will also like and comment on all videos after completing them so you can know people are loving your videos.
Amazing, I just started learning python (I know CSS and HTML) and wanted a project but the discord videos coming up first in search all had comments saying they were outdated. I searched by date and found your video and am super stoked to see something so well put together! Commenting, liking, and subscribing for the algorithm, hope more people find your stuff James!
I never do the whole trifecta of liking, subbing, and commenting but my man!! I was struggling with all the other tutorials just to get to this point. You got me on track in less than 20 minutes! I truly appreciate this video above the thousand other videos I have watched here, and will definitely be watching the rest!
And when we needed him the most, he returned.
Back for good 🔥
I found the original series and currently watching that and have joined the discord. Welcome back! A video on a killfeed bot that links into a remote server would be great.
Thank you so much. Sure that sounds great thank you I’ll add that to the list of episodes for this series
@@James_S That would be amazing!
If you are getting an error about audioop, it might be because you have python 3.13. Uninstall it and install 3.8 instead. It worked for me.
Thank you
the 3.8 is outdated. How to install 3.8?
Why does it say no module named discord? Ive had this problem before i restarted with updated coding. I'm just going to continue with the coding part until i figure out how to fix it later.
Thank you, you saved the world.
2025 is crazy
hey, idk why i already installed discord.py but my python can't find modules name discord. Somebody pls help me
bro is lowkey a hero
i was just watching your old series and you posted a fresh one
Should be similar for the first couple of episodes however then it will be different so you should hopefully be able to transfer your code across
real

@@ZERO-OFFICIAL77 Copied comment
Instead of "Python-3" i put "py -3" and it worked
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'audioop'
did you find a solution?
@adarshmishra6603 not yet
@@robertdoro0084 " pip install audioop-lts " run this in your terminal and install the module and the problem would be fixed.
python3 -m pip install -U audioop-lts
@@alejandrohaynes81 thank you, it worked! (I used the same code except python replaces python3)
How often are vids posted?
How come you started redoing them? Did you mess up the last?
i download pythorn 3.13.1 leasted version as i see i having issue about

Thank you, glad to be back :)
i stumbled onto this while looking for videos on how to make a discord bot. this is really cool. thanks!!!
Glad you liked it, thank you :))
When is your next episode released? Do you have a schedule set or just when you can?
Next one should be coming out in the next day or two. The plan is to release one every week or two. When I get into the swing of things I’m hoping to release a video every Friday :)
a. why do u talk like that?
b. what calendar r u using? (4 months ago)
keep up the good work! you earned a sub!
Thank you so much
hi, regarding the last part where the message gets relayed into the terminal, it dosent work for me.

print(f'Message from {message.author}: {message.content}')
but nothing works. please help
are'u solved it?
@@samu_elito5419 yeah i solved it
I can’t import discord
you just earned a sub !!! keep going
Thank you so much
Having an issue with something simple.. When in terminal i typed python3 --version, It came up with "Python was not found; run without arguments to install from the Microsoft Store, or disable this shortcut from Settings > Manage App Execution Aliases." But I already have python installed. When i had gone into manage app execution alliances in settings.. All it did was complicate thigs further when I had disabled the shortcut. God I'm stuck and i have no clue what to do..
use py
instead of "python3 --version" use "py -3 --version"
@@TheLegendaryMorato I fucking love you tysm
Bro can you teach us how to make a music bot?
Yep sure, I plan to cover that a couple of episodes in
Finally!
I did everything right and my bot is working, ty but I have a problem. I can't see the messages which sent on discord. Please help me why I can't see the messages in terminal.
Whar program are you using?
How to make tool that'd DM all your friends in discord
Sure, I’ll make sure to include an episode in this series about this
@@James_S thanks mate
When's the next video? (btw, loved this video, worked flawlessly)
Thank you and glad it worked. Next video should be coming out in the next day or two
@@James_S Can't wait!
i get the following error when running the python script using Spyder:
Error: asyncio.run() cannot be called from a running event loop
e:\python\bot\main.py:30: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Client.run..runner' was never awaited
print(f"Error: {e}")
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback
When I did discord it said the discord was a error and need to change it and it’s not working
2025??????????? its literally 2024
its probably so that people will think its the most updated tutorial (which, it is) and therefore click on it instead of some outdated one that wont work
w
"2025"
Why The bot only work in the privete didnt work in the server ?
This might be because of permissions for that specific server. Maybe the server doesn’t allow for bots with administrator permissions?
@@James_S I gave the bot administrator permission
THANK YOU
How do you shutdown the bot properly?
The best way to do it is in the terminal, pressing Ctrl-C. This will then stop the Python program from running
@James S - is there something with discord that messes up the bot if you try to change the interact command (from say the ! to a / for example)? I don't think anything else has changed and I have tried everything to get the exact same code to work just changing that out (and even back again) and nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?
I get an error at the end, when I run the bot by running ''main.py''
This is what the therminal says:
''discord.errors.LoginFailure: Improper token has been passed.''
Same let me know if there’s a fix for this
This is most likely due to the token being passed not being valid for your bot. I’d recommend logging into the discord developer portal, going to the bot section, and regenerating a new token and then paste that into your code. Hopefully that should fix the problem
I finally found a solution, if the solution stated above doesnt work, then try debugging the code and for some reason the bot will start working, at least for mine.
@@tenchi2075 how do I debug it? I’m pretty new to coding😂🥲
@@tenchi2075 I've found another selution, Adding the discord tool extension, re-open the app and run it through prompt, works fine too!
Nice video!
Thanks
when the imposter is sus 2024
im getting an error that says [Errno 2] No such file or directory. any idea what im doing wrong here?
Having this problem too, did you find any solution?
@LeonWells-hf4yc You entered the file name wrong or are in the wrong directory when trying to execute your python script
bro is one year ahead
this guys voice pisses me off like can u please jst not go "OMG THIS IS SO COOL"
I have a problem ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'audioop', how to solve that? please help me
I'm having this same issue. No matter what I do I can't find anything on how to fix it. I'll let you know if I find anything.
Well, I just found the issue. Audioop has been removed from newer versions of Python. I'm not smart enough to figure out how to fix that other than installing an older version of Python. Doing that fixed the problem for me.
@@Lad_Flaverwhat version of python?
HELL YEAH
where were you from 1 year
😏
Bro thinks it's 2025
Bro changed the system date in python
