TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'tag')

This error comes whenever I try to use client in a command like this: client.user.tag
my message.js includes:

const client = new Client({
intents: [Intents.FLAGS.GUILDS, Intents.FLAGS.GUILD_MEMBERS, Intents.FLAGS.GUILD_MESSAGES, Intents.FLAGS.GUILD_MESSAGE_REACTIONS]});

and

command.execute(client, message, args, MessageEmbed);

and my command file also contains: execute(client, message, args, MessageEmbed)

then also i am getting this error: TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'tag')
a help will be really appreciated...

CodePudding user response：

This looks like a caching issue make sure that you have not disabled user caching since this will include the client user.

CodePudding user response：

client is a variable that holds the Discord bot client. You should read the docs to learn more about how it can be used.

It seems you are trying to get the client tag. If you read the docs, you will see that the client object has a property called user, which holds the user object. Since user objects hold the tag property, you're done.

client.user.tag
