missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'intents'

I tried to run my code but this error comes up

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Tom\Downloads\music_bot-main\main.py", line 9, in
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='/')
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
TypeError: BotBase.init() missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'intents'

This is because of a recent update in discord where bots now require intents to be enabled in order for commands to work in servers. There are two things you need to do to fix this:

1. After command_prefix='/', and before the parentheses, add the following: ,intents=discord.Intents.all()
2. Go to https://discord.com/developers/applications
   • Click on your bot of choice
   • Navigate to the "Bot" tab on the left side
   • Scroll to "Privileged Gateway Intents"
   • Turn the "Presence Intent", "Server Members Intent", and "Message Content Intent" to on.
3. Done! You should no longer get this error.
