Am I using ctx.channel.send correctly?

[quackersian]

I have some basic message code:

import discord

from discord.ext import commands

intents = discord.Intents(messages = True)


bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents)

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("Bot Is Ready")

@bot.event
async def on_message(ctx):
    if 'https://' in ctx.content:
        
        print(type(ctx.channel))
        await ctx.channel.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} Don't Send Links")
        await ctx.delete()
bot.run("MY_TOKEN")

When typing a message that contains "https://" I get the below error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\quack\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\client.py", line 343, in _run_event
    await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "c:\Users\quack\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\Discord Bots\test.py", line 19, in on_message
    await ctx.channel.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} Don't Send Links")
AttributeError: 'Object' object has no attribute 'send'

Using print(type(ctx.channel)) I get <class 'discord.object.Object'>

Shouldn't this ctx.channel type be <class 'discord.TextChannel>?

You didn't enable guilds intent, so, channels will be Object instead. (only applicable in < v1.7.3)

Note: In v2.0 this will be a PartialMessageable object.

also, dont forget to enable message_content intent when using d.py >=2.0

Thank you! That was the issue. I replaced my intents line with intents = discord.Intents.default() and it worked perfectly.
