I am trying to mention a user by their name in discord.py. My current code is:

@bot.command(name='mention')
@commands.has_role(OwnerCommands)
async def mention(ctx, *, member: discord.Member):memberid = member.idawait ctx.message.delete()await ctx.send('<@{}>'.format(memberid))

But it does not work. How do I do this?

Edit, I found an answer.

It is rather straight forward member.mention

@bot.command(name='mention')
@commands.has_role(OwnerCommands)
async def mention(ctx, *, member: discord.Member):await ctx.message.delete()await ctx.send(member.mention)
