Why are events not working in discord.py?

Question

Python

I am writing a discord bot in python, I want to display a welcome message when a user logs into the server.

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

TOKEN = settings ['token']

bot = commands.Bot (command_prefix = settings ['prefix'])

@bot.event
async def on_member_join (member):
    print(f'Присоединился {member.user}')
    await member.send("Hi!")

bot.run (TOKEN)

There are no errors on startup... and the code doesn't work. Please, help

Answer 1

Event on_member_joinrequires members intent: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.htm...

Enable required intents in bot control panel:

And then add argument intentsto bot constructor:
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io /en/stable/intents...

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.members = True
bot = commands.Bot(..., intents=intents)
