buttons not working
Hi! I have a code that should give a sample math test - it gives you a linear equation and two answer choices (one of them is correct) The code is pasted below:
const { ActionRowBuilder, ButtonBuilder, ButtonStyle, SlashCommandBuilder } = require('discord.js');
module.exports = {
data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
.setName('mathtest')
.setDescription('Gives you a math test'),
async execute(interaction) {
var a = Math.floor(Math.random()10)+1;
var b = Math.floor(Math.random()10)+1;
var c = Math.floor(Math.random()(20-(a+b)))+a+b;
var d = Math.floor(Math.random())+1;
var aone;
var atwo;
var sol;
if(d === 1){
aone = (c - b)/a;
atwo = Math.floor(Math.random()10)+1;
sol = aone;
}
if(d === 2){
aone = Math.floor(Math.random()*10)+1;
atwo = (c-b)/a;
sol = atwo;
}
const answerone = new ButtonBuilder()
.setCustomId('answerone')
.setLabel(
const response = await interaction.reply({ content:
const collectorFilter = i => i.user.id === interaction.user.id; try { const answer = await response.awaitMessageComponent({ filter: collectorFilter, time: 60_000 });
if (answer.Label ===
}, };
${aone})
.setStyle(ButtonStyle.Primary);
const answertwo = new ButtonBuilder()
.setCustomId('answertwo')
.setLabel(${atwo})
.setStyle(ButtonStyle.Primary);
const row = new ActionRowBuilder()
.addComponents(answerone, answertwo);
const response = await interaction.reply({ content:
Solve the math problem, ${a}x + ${b} = ${c},
components: [row],
});
const collectorFilter = i => i.user.id === interaction.user.id; try { const answer = await response.awaitMessageComponent({ filter: collectorFilter, time: 60_000 });
if (answer.Label ===
${sol}) {
await answer.update({ content: Sorry, incorrect, components: [] });
} else if (answer.Label !== ${sol}) {
await answer.update({ content: 'You got it correct!', components: [] });
}
} catch (e) {
await response.editReply({ content: 'Nobody answered!', components: [] });
}
}, };

• 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.Unknown User•14mo ago

hm - it's still not working - here's the code:
const { ActionRowBuilder, ButtonBuilder, ButtonStyle, SlashCommandBuilder } = require('discord.js');
module.exports = {
data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
.setName('mathtest')
.setDescription('Gives you a math test'),
async execute(interaction) {
var a = Math.floor(Math.random()10)+1;
var b = Math.floor(Math.random()10)+1;
var c = Math.floor(Math.random()(20-(a+b)))+a+b;
var d = Math.floor(Math.random())+1;
var aone;
var atwo;
var sol;
if(d === 1){
aone = (c - b)/a;
atwo = Math.floor(Math.random()10)+1;
sol = aone;
}
if(d === 2){
aone = Math.floor(Math.random()*10)+1;
atwo = (c-b)/a;
sol = atwo;
}
const answerone = new ButtonBuilder()
.setCustomId(
const response = await interaction.reply({ content:
const collectorFilter = i => i.user.id === interaction.user.id; try { const answer = await response.awaitMessageComponent({ filter: collectorFilter, time: 60_000 });
if (answer.customId ===
}, };
${aone})
.setLabel(${aone})
.setStyle(ButtonStyle.Primary);
const answertwo = new ButtonBuilder()
.setCustomId(${atwo})
.setLabel(${atwo})
.setStyle(ButtonStyle.Primary);
const row = new ActionRowBuilder()
.addComponents(${aone}, ${atwo});
const response = await interaction.reply({ content:
Solve the math problem, ${a}x + ${b} = ${c},
components: [row],
});
const collectorFilter = i => i.user.id === interaction.user.id; try { const answer = await response.awaitMessageComponent({ filter: collectorFilter, time: 60_000 });
if (answer.customId ===
${sol}) {
await answer.update({ content: Sorry, incorrect, components: [] });
} else if (answer.customId !== ${sol}) {
await answer.update({ content: 'You got it correct!', components: [] });
}
} catch (e) {
await response.editReply({ content: 'Nobody answered!', components: [] });
}
}, };

alright it's executing but it says that it's not working
how do i do it without passing template literals?
Unknown User•14mo ago

because i want to have two answer buttons and, generate two numbers, one being the answer (sol) and the other being a random number - then, by random (purpose of d variable), choose which button gets correct ans and which gets wrong ans

If you aren't getting any errors, try to place
console.log checkpoints throughout your code to find out where execution stops.
• Once you do, log relevant values and if-conditions
• More sophisticated debugging methods are breakpoints and runtime inspections: learn moreright now it's saying "application did not respond" but idk why because all my other commands execute fine

oh
but i never define answerone or answertwo anywhere
Unknown User•14mo ago

ohh so
those things should put the button names, or the button ids

oh ok yea now it's responding
my current code is still in the debug console.log mode i'll see if the actual code works

regarding the template literals is there any other ones that should be removed?
its kinda messy to put those template literals as customIds
Unknown User•14mo ago

hm but the sol thing isn't working
sol should be equal to whichever is (c - b)/a and then i have the if(answer.customId === sol) or else if (answer.customID !== sol)
Unknown User•14mo ago

yea so either aone or atwo is (c - b)/a and whichever is would be equal to sol so if(answer.customId === sol) should be true only if answer.customId = (c-b)/a
Unknown User•14mo ago

well its kinda confusing with the template literals but yea aone and atwo should also be float numbers and then sol would be a float number but then idk if custom Ids can be numbers
