Discord Bot Javascript Commands Else If Problem

Question

i was building my discord bot, i wanted to make a currency command for 2 people: me and my friend. i was adding the if else statements and it worked fine for me, but i swapped the ID s to test if it would work for my friend, i added the statement "else if" and then the "else" was a problem, it said "Declaration or statement expected." but i did it correctly, there is too much code in the whole file so i'll only send the thing:

// >bal
case 'bal':
                if(userID==603873287071858701) {
                    bot.sendMessage({
                        to: channelID,
                        message: bal2
                    }) 
                    else if(userID==546721227671076864) {
                        bot.sendMessage({
                            to: channelID,
                            message: bal1
                        })
                    }
            break;

oh, and by the way, yes, i did add the values: "bal1, bal2" so it isn't that problem, i tried removing the "else", but that didn't do anything, btw the ID that starts with a 5 is my userID and the ID that starts with a 6 is my friend's id, i swapped them to test if it would work for my friend. what do i do to fix this problem? btw i'm using Visual Studio Code.

Answer 1

you forgat to close ( } ) the if statement before the else if statement. if it doesnt working try to log userID before the if statement to debug it.
