Not Backing Up Messages

I was trying this out today. First off, the backup folder is directly inside the lib folder of the discord-backup.

Secondly, when I checked the messages for each chat it had empty [] lists on them. The bot is already in administrator.

Not sure if this is the problem of discord-backup or the backups bot. Let me know if I should post this issue there instead of here. Thanks!

Yes, it is the excepted behavior until you change it using setBackupFolder() 👍

I can't help you without your code, can you send it please?

Are you using the backups-bot code (Androz2091/backups-bot repository), or are you trying to make your own bot using the library?

Hi! So I'm using the backup-bots repository. @Androz2091

Just wanted to note that it's (now?) setStorageFolder() instead. Took me a sec to realise so figured I'd hopefully save others some time!

Hello, having the same problem here, the channels are rightly restored but the messages doesn't come with, even if they're in the json file
