$eventChannelParent

Returns the ID of the category/forum channel under which a channel or thread was created or deleted. This is only applicable and useful within channel triggers (e.g., channelCreate or channelDelete).

In simpler terms: Imagine a Discord server with categories and channels. This code helps you find out which category a new channel was created in, or which category a channel was deleted from.

How to Use

Just use $eventChannelParent within the code of a channel-based trigger. It will be replaced with the category/forum's ID.

$eventChannelParent

Example Scenario:

Let's say you have a channel trigger that runs when a new channel is created. You can use $eventChannelParent to send a message to a specific log channel informing administrators which category the new channel was created under:

$channelSendMessage[LogChannelID;A new channel ($eventChannelName) was created under category ID: $eventChannelParent]

Important Note: This function will only return a valid ID within the scope of channel triggers. Using it outside of those triggers may result in unexpected behavior (likely an empty string).
