Discord JS v12 Add Field Issues

Question

let xp = db.get(`xpchannel_${message.guild.id}`)
let wel = db.get(`welchannel_${message.guild.id}`)
let px = db.get(`prefix_${message.guild.id}`)
let defaultprefix = '.'

let disabled = ':white_circle: Disabled'

let embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
    .setColor(ee.color)
    .setAuthor('Database Settings', client.user.avatarURL())
    .setThumbnail(ee.thumbnail)
    .addFields(
        { name: '__**XP Channel**__', value: `${xp || `${disabled}`}`, inline: true },
        { name: '__**Welcomer Channel**__', value: `${wel || `${disabled}`}`, inline: true },
        { name: '__**Set Prefix**__', value: `\`${px || `${defaultprefix}`}\``, inline: true },
    )

if (!message.member.permissions.has('ADMINISTRATOR')) {
    return message.channel.send("<:warning:943421375526355024> | **You Need `ADMINISTRATOR` Permissions To Use This Command!**");
}

message.channel.send(embed)

Whenever I use this command and theres a xp channel or welcomer channel in the database it returns the channel id instead of the channel itself, I have tried to fix this by adding <# > at the front and end of the variable but then when theres no channel in the database it returns <#null> instead of the disabled variable. How would i fix that?

You should check if the values of those variables (xp and wel) are truthy. If they are, the channel ID is returned from the database, you can squeeze them beetween <# and >. If the returned value is null, you can simply pass the disabled variable:

.addFields(
  {
    name: '__**XP Channel**__',
    value: xp ? `<#${xp}>` : disabled,
    inline: true,
  },
  {
    name: '__**Welcomer Channel**__',
    value: wel ? `<#${wel}>` : disabled,
    inline: true,
  },
  {
    name: '__**Set Prefix**__',
    value: `\`${px || defaultprefix}\``,
    inline: true,
  },
);
