Delete all message from a specific user in a channel discord.py

this is a line of code to delete an amount of message in a text channel in discord

await ctx.channel.purge(limit=amount)

If i use purge function it will delete all message everyone sent. But I only want to delete message from a specific user like mee6, not all the message from everyone in the channel.

May I know how? Thank you

  • You can use the check argument of TextChannel.purge:

    user = user_to_delete
await ctx.channel.purge(limit=amount, check=lambda m: m.author == user)
