Recently with coronavirus, school is cancelled so I made a discord server for my class. People are not very familiar with Discord so I want a command that can selfmute people so that the course can start. I want everyone to be able to unmute if they want to ask a question to the teacher, hence the self-mute and not the server-mute. I have tried this code but it's not working because the .selfmute(true) is made for the bot.
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const client = new Discord.Client();
const config = require("./config.json");
const prefix = "!";
client.on("message", (message) => {
if (!message.content.startsWith(prefix)) return;
if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "mute")) {
let channel = message.member.voice.channel;
for (let member of channel.members) {
member[1].voice.setSelfMute(true);
}
}
});
client.login(config.token);
Does anyone know how to do this ? Thanks for the help.
PS: sorry for my english, it's not my native language.
Unfortunately, you cannot self-mute or self-deafen a user other than the client's user.
The documentation for setSelfMute says:
Self-mutes/unmutes the bot for this voice state.
Also, if you attempt to self-mute a user that will isn't the client user you will get this error:
Error [VOICE_STATE_NOT_OWN]: You cannot self-deafen/mute on VoiceStates that do not belong to the ClientUser.
Alternatively, you could mute them normally and then have a command to unmute them.
