Paginated Message Replies Only to Interactions?

When I use a paginated message from @sapphire/discord.js-utilities with an interaction and call the run method it replies to the original interaction. However when I follow the same process with a message object it does not reply to the original message. I was wondering if this is perhaps an intents issue or the like but having given the bot all intents and scoured the docs I still can't find a solution. Any help would be much appreciated.

This is intended. If you want it to reply to the original message, you'll have to extend the PaginatedMessage class. Use the following code:
export class CustomPaginatedMessage extends PaginatedMessage {
protected async setUpMessage(messageOrInteraction: Message | AnyInteractableInteraction): Promise<void> {
// Get the current page
let page = this.messages[this.index]!;

// Merge in the advanced options
page = { ...page, ...(this.paginatedMessageData ?? {}) };

if (this.response) {
if (isAnyInteraction(this.response)) {
if (this.response.replied || this.response.deferred) {
await this.response.editReply(page);
} else {
await this.response.reply({ ...page, content: page.content ?? undefined });
}
} else if (isMessageInstance(this.response)) {
await this.response.edit(page);
}
} else if (isAnyInteraction(messageOrInteraction)) {
if (messageOrInteraction.replied || messageOrInteraction.deferred) {
const editReplyResponse = await messageOrInteraction.editReply(page);
this.response = messageOrInteraction.ephemeral ? messageOrInteraction : editReplyResponse;
} else {
this.response = await messageOrInteraction.reply({
...page,
content: page.content ?? undefined,
fetchReply: true,
ephemeral: false
});
}
} else if (!isStageChannel(messageOrInteraction.channel)) {
this.response = await messageOrInteraction.reply({ ...page, content: page.content ?? undefined });
}
}
}
export class CustomPaginatedMessage extends PaginatedMessage {
protected async setUpMessage(messageOrInteraction: Message | AnyInteractableInteraction): Promise<void> {
// Get the current page
let page = this.messages[this.index]!;

// Merge in the advanced options
page = { ...page, ...(this.paginatedMessageData ?? {}) };

if (this.response) {
if (isAnyInteraction(this.response)) {
if (this.response.replied || this.response.deferred) {
await this.response.editReply(page);
} else {
await this.response.reply({ ...page, content: page.content ?? undefined });
}
} else if (isMessageInstance(this.response)) {
await this.response.edit(page);
}
} else if (isAnyInteraction(messageOrInteraction)) {
if (messageOrInteraction.replied || messageOrInteraction.deferred) {
const editReplyResponse = await messageOrInteraction.editReply(page);
this.response = messageOrInteraction.ephemeral ? messageOrInteraction : editReplyResponse;
} else {
this.response = await messageOrInteraction.reply({
...page,
content: page.content ?? undefined,
fetchReply: true,
ephemeral: false
});
}
} else if (!isStageChannel(messageOrInteraction.channel)) {
this.response = await messageOrInteraction.reply({ ...page, content: page.content ?? undefined });
}
}
}
Note: I directly copied the original function, just changing messageOrInteraction.channel.send to messageOrInteraction.reply. I haven't tested this out, so it might not be typesafe. However, the solution will be something along those lines. @solaris9uk
