I have the same issue. No content from discord

imvaskel commented 3 years ago

message.content can be blank if the message doesn't feature any content, eg when the message is exclusively an embed.

Same issue but with message.embeds

mcg88 commented 3 years ago

message.content can be blank if the message doesn't feature any content, eg when the message is exclusively an embed.

Yes, I realize that but in my case this applies to all messages coming through the stream not exclusively embeds or any other message type that would cause the content to be blank. Pure text content is missing

Can you print(repr(message))?

Having a similar issue, except I can get the message content from my own messages, nobody else's

ardlank commented 3 years ago

Having the same issue. Message.content and message.embeds is empty. please help

ardlank commented 3 years ago

@rekeshali is correct. only works on my messages

apple502j commented 3 years ago

Can anyone reproduce this on actual bots (not on user-account bots/"selfbots")?

Rapptz commented 3 years ago

Judging from the comments and the parent issue this seems to only affect self-bots. Self-bots are deprecated and unsupported in v1.7. They are getting removed in v2.0. If this issue can be reproduced with a real bot account then I would have heard about it from official sources and other libraries, but since I haven't I'm assuming this doesn't apply to real bots.
