[Discord Issue] As of September 1st, the bot doesn't respond to commands!

[jagrosh]

Description of the bug As of September 1st, the Message Content Intent is being enforced, which is the "intent" that allows a bot to read the contents of messages. JMusicBot needs this intent to be able to have custom-prefixed commands. If your music bot stopped responding to commands on September 1st, it is almost certainly because the bot's intents have not been migrated and you'll need to update its settings in the developer portal. (Note that if your bot is in more than 75 servers, it will likely be permanently broken. JMusicBots should be kept private).

The Solution

1. Head on over to https://discord.com/developers/applications and find your bot application.
2. Click on the Bot tab on the sidebar
3. Turn Message Content Intent (should be the last checkbox on the page) ON
4. Make sure your checkboxes match the ones I have shown
5. Shut down and restart your bot

Version Info This affects all connections to Discord, regardless of which version of JMusicBot is used.
