Why does client.guilds.cache.size only say “0” in my playing status even if it's in 2 servers?

Question

i have seen many people who had trouble with client.guilds.size but I switched to the recently suggested client.guilds.cache.size . In my playing status, it only says "WATCHING my prefix | 0 servers." same happens for trying to fetch the member count and channel count.

let activities = [ `${client.guilds.cache.size} servers`, `${client.channels.cache.size} channels`, `${client.users.cache.size} users` ], i = 0;

setInterval(() => client.user.setActivity(`${prefix}help | ${activities[i ++ % activities.length]}`, { type: "WATCHING"}),`${process.env.INTERVAL}`)

This is the script I am using to achieve that. I already have an Eval command, that returns 2 aswell.

I can't seem to find a solution to this somehow. I hope you can help me, if you need anything, tell me!

Answer 1

Your issue is that your client has not logged in before you grab the guilds collection

You need to place that code inside your ready event.

client.on('ready', () => {
  let activities = [ `${client.guilds.cache.size} servers`, `${client.channels.cache.size} channels`, `${client.users.cache.size} users` ], i = 0;

  setInterval(() => client.user.setActivity(`${prefix}help | ${activities[i ++ % activities.length]}`, { type: "WATCHING"}),`${process.env.INTERVAL}`)
})
