Nested Collector

If i have a button that opens up a modal, do i add the modal collector in the button collector or is there another way? Coming back to djs after a long time so my brain isnt braining.

method ButtonInteraction#awaitModalSubmit() Collects a single modal submit interaction that passes the filter. The Promise will reject if the time expires.

Oh okay, and then if i want a series of buttons in it, like after modal submit theres another embed with button and i wanna do that is there a similar thing?

reply to the collected modal intefraction with that embed though if you plan on making your buttons a single press, you're probably better off using the promisified collector

that can be anything really, just note they're not persistent in non promisifed ones you can omit the time the promisified ones will reject after the specified time
