HEY I HAVE BEEN HACKED ON MY BOTS
I was in discord and my friend left the server and he has a own bot. So I shutdown the bot. After some day it was online i didn’t care. Some time later it was online again and I checked on repl.it if it was online but it was not. And I remembered the repls are public and I kicked the bots but I have forget one group I had them in and after some day it happened. THE HOLE GROUP WAS DESTROYED IT STAND “xlie was here” EVERYWHERE And I contacted he and he said he haven’t do something.....
probably a token problem. Do you have it? can we see some info?
i know what the problem was i did put the discord token in the code but every single video i found they said make a .env file but it didnt work because i named it token.env. but now i know how to do it but it was also my first discord bot i made but its still bad that he nuked my group.
it's because the file must be called only .env
, NOT Token.env
as is here
That is also the incorrect way to store your token btw, remove the brackets and the quites so that it is just DISCORD_BOT_SECRET= ODAzODY2NTYyOTM1MTI4MDc1.YBEBEw.mTBDg9s_TKsmJRABWQQV8kMt2fc
And now of course regenerate your token in the discord developer portal.
Did you write your Discord token into your code?
Hello, I would love to help, did you put your token on your repl? if so, generate a new token in the Discord Developer Portal in the bot tab, copy the token and go back to repl. Go to your console and type:
npm i dotenv
, once it's done downloading, create a new file called.env
, go into the file and put in:TOKEN='YOUR_TOKEN'
then go back to your main file and put in at the top:const TOKEN = process.env.TOKEN;
then, to login the bot with your token add:client.login(process.env.TOKEN);
or replaceclient
with whatever variable you use as your bot.
