Discord.py rewrite get_member() function returning None for all users except bot

问题

I made a stupid discord bot a few months ago to change my friends name every minute, but I updated it today and now the get_member function is returning none.

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('bot is ready!')
    status = discord.Activity(name="Sam be a loser", type=discord.ActivityType.watching)
    await client.change_presence(activity=status)

    name_change.start()

@tasks.loop(minutes=1)
async def name_change():
    server = client.get_guild(id=584112137132048387)
    user = server.get_member(376388277302984714)

    global english_words
    global wordNumber
    wordNumber = wordNumber + 1
    #changes nickname to current word
    await user.edit(nick=f"{english_words[wordNumber]} lookin' ass")
    print(f'Word number {wordNumber}: {english_words[wordNumber]}')
    #updates number in file
    file = open("currentWord.txt", "w")
    file.write(str(wordNumber))
    file.close

I tried the same function with every user in the server, but it returned none for all of them except when I put the bot's id in. I have no clue why this is happening since I didn't even edit this part of the code.

This is most likely due to the recent discord.py 1.5 update. You are required to configure your intents when you're declaring your Bot.

What are intents? Version 1.5 comes with the introduction of intents. This is a radical change in how bots are written. An intent basically allows a bot to subscribe into specific buckets of events. The events that correspond to each intent is documented in the individual attribute of the Intents documentation. Here's an example:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.members = True  # Subscribe to the privileged members intent.
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!', intents=intents)

You will also have to enable privileged intents for guild related events: Here
