**🟠 Manual Guide to Retrieve Channel ID from Discord**

If the `/getid` command does not work to retrieve channel information, you can manually get the Channel ID by following these steps:

1. **Go to the Discord channel you want to retrieve the ID from**.
   * Open Discord and navigate to the desired channel.
2. **Copy the channel link**.
   * Right-click on the channel name and select **Copy Link**.
   * Example: The copied link will look like: `https://discord.com/channels/1330015664596848711/1330086886491947102`.
3. **Extract the Channel ID**.
   * The Channel ID is the last numeric part of the link.
     * For example, from the link: `https://discord.com/channels/1330015664596848711/1330086886491947102`, the **Channel ID** is **1330086886491947102**.
4. **Use this ID** in your configuration for the next steps.
