discord.js ignores select menu input

const { Events, EmbedBuilder, ActionRowBuilder, StringSelectMenuOptionBuilder, StringSelectMenuBuilder, ComponentType } = require("discord.js");

module.exports = {
    name: Events.InteractionCreate,
    async execute(client, interaction) {) {
        if (interaction.customId === "presetListMenu") {
          // ...

          let categoryResponse = await interaction.reply({
            embeds: [presetCategories],
            components: [...row],
            ephemeral: true
          });

          const collector = categoryResponse.createMessageComponentCollector({
            componentType: ComponentType.StringSelect,
            time: 6e4 * 2
          });

          collector.once("collect", async (i) => {
            const categorySelection = i.values[0];
            console.log(categorySelection);
            // ...

            await interaction.editReply({
              embeds: [presetCategories],
              components: [],
              ephemeral: true
            });
    });
}

const { Events, EmbedBuilder, ActionRowBuilder, StringSelectMenuOptionBuilder, StringSelectMenuBuilder, ComponentType } = require("discord.js");

module.exports = {
    name: Events.InteractionCreate,
    async execute(client, interaction) {) {
        if (interaction.customId === "presetListMenu") {
          // ...

          let categoryResponse = await interaction.reply({
            embeds: [presetCategories],
            components: [...row],
            ephemeral: true
          });

          const collector = categoryResponse.createMessageComponentCollector({
            componentType: ComponentType.StringSelect,
            time: 6e4 * 2
          });

          collector.once("collect", async (i) => {
            const categorySelection = i.values[0];
            console.log(categorySelection);
            // ...

            await interaction.editReply({
              embeds: [presetCategories],
              components: [],
              ephemeral: true
            });
    });
}

Updated from discord.js@14.11.0 -> discord.js@14.13.0 last night and it appears to completely ignore the collector here, no output at all when selecting an option.

could you share more of your code? what type of interaction is the one you're replying to with this select menu? is it a modal submit? does it behave the same if you add fetchReply: true to the reply options? does the InteractionCreate event still emit as normal for this string select menu interaction?

bussinOP•3y ago

https://sourceb.in/jveslYpMX5 It is a menu selection from a message not a modal submit fetchReply: true behaves the same, still no luck I use InteractionCreate elsewhere and it does work, doesn't work specifically in this case

duck•3y ago

I use InteractionCreate elsewhere and it does work, doesn't work specifically in this case

just to clarify, do you mean that it doesn't emit at all?

bussinOP•3y ago

No it does, that's the thing. it works for a different interaction in another file https://sourceb.in/PAEHcTli1v

duck•3y ago

I'm not asking about a different interaction in another file I'm asking if it emits for the interaction you're trying to collect

bussinOP•3y ago

not at all

this video doesn't really answer my question if you just log something at the top of your interactionCreate event listener, does it log when you use the select menu?

bussinOP•3y ago

Yes it does, the first half of my code works.. meaning it sends the reply:

// line 93
let categoryResponse = await interaction.reply({
  embeds: [presetCategories],
  components: [...row],
  ephemeral: true
});

// line 93
let categoryResponse = await interaction.reply({
  embeds: [presetCategories],
  components: [...row],
  ephemeral: true
});

however the issue I'm having is the collector not firing when I choose an option

duck•3y ago

this also doesn't answer my question

bussinOP•3y ago

my fault zooted

duck•3y ago

I'm asking whether it logs when you use the select menu that you're trying to collect the interaction for

bussinOP•3y ago

oh no it doesn't log doesn't log anything, even a string you mean this?

 collector.once("collect", async (i) => {
  const categorySelection = i.values[0];
  console.log(categorySelection);

 collector.once("collect", async (i) => {
  const categorySelection = i.values[0];
  console.log(categorySelection);

duck•3y ago

no, log at the top of your interactionCreate listener not the collector

bussinOP•3y ago

ah yes it does log

I just don't understand what changed in v14.13 that causes the collector to not respond and the fact I have nearly identical code in another interactionCreate event file that works

duck•3y ago

for your original code, I believe the issue comes from a pr that was merged for 14.12, specifically the change in how the collector's messageId is determined however I can't seem to find anything relating to if you were to add fetchReply: true in your reply options

bussinOP•3y ago

oh wow, well that's embarrassing fetchReply: true works now

duck•3y ago

no worries, just glad to have isolated the issue

bussinOP•3y ago

i really appreciate it !
