Issue with Modals

I get this error when submitting the modal and nothing comes up in console. I'm using a collector and it just isn't collecting?

• What's your exact discord.js npm list discord.js and node node -v version? • Post the full error stack trace, not just the top part! • Show your code! • Explain what exactly your issue is. • Not a discord.js issue? Check out #useful-servers.

You need to respond to the modal interaction for it to submit successfully

So you can't use collectors?

monbrey•2y ago

You can, if you collect and respond to it

larkx•2y ago

So you have to use an event to respond to it, and then the collector will collect

I've got an update to that page pending which will include more info than that uhhhh no, you dont do both

await interaction.showModal(modal)
const submission = await interaction.awaitModalSubmit({ time: 60000 });
submission.reply("Submission received");

await interaction.showModal(modal)
const submission = await interaction.awaitModalSubmit({ time: 60000 });
submission.reply("Submission received");

Something like that works

Cool, thank you. That also saves a lot of space compared to a messageComponentCollector

monbrey•2y ago

Modals also arent message components so that wouldnt have worked

larkx•2y ago

How would you parse data from the submission variable?

monbrey•2y ago

submission.options.getTextInputValue("custom id here")

larkx•2y ago

Thank you I'm getting

Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'getTextInputValue')

Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'getTextInputValue')

oh my bad fields, not options

larkx•2y ago

Okay, so i want to then edit the initial reply it sends however it says that the interaction has not been sent or deferred when I try use "submission.editReply"

d.js docs•2y ago

Documentation suggestion for @larkx: method

ModalSubmitInteraction#update() Updates the original message of the component on which the interaction was received on.
