How could I include the replit username of the website visitor into the script below? Also using this template. (There is already a login screen before this)

This is the script for the onload:

<body onload="sendMessage('{username}');">

This is the script for the webhook message:

function sendMessage(username) {
  const webhookUrl = 'https://discord.com/api/webhooks/example';
  const time = new Date();
  const jsonData = {
    "content": `${username} Visited the hh!`,
    "embeds": [
      {
        "title": "Hiddenhub Visit",
        "description": `User: ${username}\nTime: ${time}`,
        "color": 1488863
      }
    ],
    "username": "Visitbot9000",
    "avatar_url": "https://www.vippng.com/png/detail/1-10485_free-icons-png-visit-our-website-logo.png",
    "attachments": []
  };

  const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
  xhr.open('POST', webhookUrl);
  xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
  xhr.send(JSON.stringify(jsonData));
}

You could probably use one of replit verification templates

I am using one of the replit auth templates, and the user must login prior to this message being sent, but the name is still shown as {username}.

Hmm, im not very experienced what to do with this, so maybe just try stack overflow or wait for someone else

Instead of this<body onload="sendMessage('{username}');"> use this <body onload="sendMessage(username);">

This does not seem to work, as it just cancels out the message completely. Thank you for the response though!

You have to pass the username to your template
main.py, line 27:

	return render_template('index.html', username=request.headers['X-Replit-User-Name'])

Then in your template:

<body onload="sendMessage('{{username}}');">
