Bot not responding to messages

[badonyt]

Hey,
For some reason the bot is not dming when i do ping / pong, can someone help.

package main

import (
	
	"fmt"
	"os"
	"os/signal"
	"syscall"

	"github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo"
)





func main() {
	// Create a new Discord session using the provided bot token.
	dg, err := discordgo.New("Bot " + "TOKEN")
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("error creating Discord session,", err)
		return
	}

	// Register the messageCreate func as a callback for MessageCreate events.
	dg.AddHandler(messageCreate)

	// Just like the ping pong example, we only care about receiving message
	// events in this example.
	dg.Identify.Intents = discordgo.IntentsGuildMessages

	// Open a websocket connection to Discord and begin listening.
	err = dg.Open()
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("error opening connection,", err)
		return
	}

	// Wait here until CTRL-C or other term signal is received.
	fmt.Println("Bot is now running. Press CTRL-C to exit.")
	sc := make(chan os.Signal, 1)
	signal.Notify(sc, syscall.SIGINT, syscall.SIGTERM, os.Interrupt, os.Kill)
	<-sc

	// Cleanly close down the Discord session.
	dg.Close()
}

// This function will be called (due to AddHandler above) every time a new
// message is created on any channel that the authenticated bot has access to.
//
// It is called whenever a message is created but only when it's sent through a
// server as we did not request IntentsDirectMessages.
func messageCreate(s *discordgo.Session, m *discordgo.MessageCreate) {
	// Ignore all messages created by the bot itself
	// This isn't required in this specific example but it's a good practice.
	if m.Author.ID == s.State.User.ID {
		return
	}
	// In this example, we only care about messages that are "ping".
	if m.Content != "ping" {
		return
	}

	// We create the private channel with the user who sent the message.
	channel, err := s.UserChannelCreate(m.Author.ID)
	if err != nil {
		// If an error occurred, we failed to create the channel.
		//
		// Some common causes are:
		// 1. We don't share a server with the user (not possible here).
		// 2. We opened enough DM channels quickly enough for Discord to
		//    label us as abusing the endpoint, blocking us from opening
		//    new ones.
		fmt.Println("error creating channel:", err)
		s.ChannelMessageSend(
			m.ChannelID,
			"Something went wrong while sending the DM!",
		)
		return
	}
	// Then we send the message through the channel we created.
	_, err = s.ChannelMessageSend(channel.ID, "Pong!")
	if err != nil {
		// If an error occurred, we failed to send the message.
		//
		// It may occur either when we do not share a server with the
		// user (highly unlikely as we just received a message) or
		// the user disabled DM in their settings (more likely).
		fmt.Println("error sending DM message:", err)
		s.ChannelMessageSend(
			m.ChannelID,
			"Failed to send you a DM. "+
				"Did you disable DM in your privacy settings?",
		)
	}
}

This is copied from the examples but when for some reason i want to get it just the token to be on the file for me it doesnt work, im running this when its built

Bummer, I forgot about that again.

dg.Identify.Intents = discordgo.IntentsGuildMessages

Nowdays the bots require also another intent: discordgo.IntentMessageContent.
You would need to change this line to dg.Identify.Intents = discordgo.IntentsGuildMessages | discordgo.IntentMessageContent.

hey for some reason its not working when i launch the exe

Hello, I have the same question with this one.
And I found I can get response in bot's DM with discordgo.IntentDirectMessages.
So what's the discordgo.IntentMessageContent used for?
