To string together multiple messages in a row for a command in Discord.js, you can use the message.content property to access the entire message sent by the user. You can then split the message into individual parts using the split() method to separate the commands or arguments. Here's an example code snippet to demonstrate how you can achieve this:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
13
client.on('message', message => {
  if (message.content.startsWith('!multipleMessages')) {
    // Remove the command prefix and split the message into individual parts
    const parts = message.content.slice('!multipleMessages'.length).trim().split(' ');

    // Loop through each part of the message and send them as separate messages
    parts.forEach(part => {
      if (part) { // Ignore empty parts
        message.channel.send(part);
      }
    });
  }
});


In this code snippet, we first check if the message starts with the command prefix !multipleMessages. We then remove the command prefix and split the message into individual parts using the split(' ') method. Finally, we loop through each part of the message and send them as separate messages in the same channel.


You can customize the command prefix and the logic to split the messages based on your requirements. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
