Troubleshooting

Common logging problems and fixes.

ProblemLikely causeFix
No logs at allchannelId is null, the LogConfig row is missing, or toggles are off.Choose a Log Channel and enable at least one event in /dashboard/<guildId>/logging.
Logs still use old settingsThe bot has cached the old LogConfig for up to 5 minutes.Wait for the cache to expire, then trigger a new event.
Message edit did not logThe text content did not change, such as a link preview/embed update.This is expected; only content changes are logged.
Deleted content says no text or unknownDiscord did not provide content or the old message was partial/uncached.Enable the required Discord intents/cache behavior for your deployment and understand that old content may not always be available.
Voice mute/deafen was not loggedThe module ignores voice state updates where the channel did not change.Only join, leave, and move events are logged.
Webhook was saved but logs still appear from the bot userThe config is cached for 5 minutes; or the webhook URL was rejected (only discord.com/api/webhooks/… forms are accepted).Wait a few minutes or toggle any switch to refresh the cache; re-paste the URL from Channel settings → Integrations → Webhooks.
Logs stopped after I deleted the webhook in DiscordThe bot detected the dead webhook and fell back to the log channel.Nothing to fix — optionally remove the stale webhook on the Logging page.
Channel save failsThe selected channel does not belong to this server.Pick a channel from the same guild.
