I have my bot setup so that it can ping a user in a specific channel when they join the server then immediately delete it, and it works:

command_prefix: "!"
# in seconds
delay_before_ping: 1
ghost_ping_channel: 899392291607822380 << that's the channel ID that I want the bot to post in

The issue I'm having:



When I try to add multiple channel IDs, it simply doesn't work. Am not very familiar with python, how could I add another channel ID? Using (), ", ', and other seperators doesn't seem to work. ID: ID seemed to work at first but gave me a list of errors and crashed the script when run.



New to python so really unsure what to do. Looked it up online however I may be using incorrect terminology as the information doesn't pop up.

NOTE: this is a config script to configure what channels the command runs in. The command works fine, but I'm having trouble configuring it.

thats not how python work.

Bit confused, could you explain which part of what I was doing was incorrect or giving some context to which section of this I'm misexplaining?

Likely you'll want to use a loop and loop through the various IDs. For example:

CHANNEL_IDS = [899392291607822380, 900403391607822380, (etc)]

for channel_id in CHANNEL_IDs:
    ghost_ping_channel: channel_id   # This command looks weird to me.  Are you sure this is the proper command????
