hasThread property not showed in message and false instead of true about discord.js HOT 8 CLOSED

Now I get you, thank you! I would be glad if we make it more clear about hasThread in its description.

Sure, we can welcome improvements and clarity. That would be a pull request we would be interested in.

Sorry I was unable to make my pr draft

Why would a new message immediately have a thread?

from discord.js.

I'm pretty sure this property checks if the message is the starter message for a thread, not just if it's a reply to one.

Why would not? I have created a thread and write my messages there, why should not they have a thread?

No, check thread's documentation: The thread started by this message This property is not suitable for checking whether a message has a thread, use [hasThread](https://discord.js.org/docs/packages/discord.js/14.14.1/Message:Class#hasThread) instead.

A created message sent over the gateway will not have a thread created from it. Those happen afterwards.

Those messages don't have a thread. They are in a thread. If you want to check if a message is sent within a thread, check the channel type it's sent in.

No, check thread's documentation: The thread started by this message This property is not suitable for checking whether a message has a thread, use [hasThread](https://discord.js.org/docs/packages/discord.js/14.14.1/Message:Class#hasThread) instead.

This reply makes it clear that this is a misunderstanding of what you are reading. Dumbing it down:

• Message#hasThread checks if the message has a thread, as in, there is a thread created off the message.
• Message#thread is the thread created off the message.
