Trouble editing buttons in ActionRow

I have this external button command file, and when a button that is linked to that file is clicked it is supposed to grab the action row, edit the buttons on the action row and then after that it sends the action row with the edited buttons

Tag suggestion for @..noxxe..: 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 more

@qjuh What do you want me to log?

Here is my code.

messageActionRow1 and messageActionRow2 are the old and unedited ActionRows, no?

Noxxe•2y ago

Indeed! and then it grabs the buttons from them and edits them. and then sends the actionrows again. I though that it's the same logic as v13

I don't think it does It just puts the new buttons in the const ... = ButtonBuilder.from(...)

Noxxe•2y ago

no.

ActionRow {
  data: { type: 1 },
  components: [
    ButtonComponent { data: [Object] },
    ButtonComponent { data: [Object] },
    ButtonComponent { data: [Object] }
  ]
}

ActionRow {
  data: { type: 1 },
  components: [
    ButtonComponent { data: [Object] },
    ButtonComponent { data: [Object] },
    ButtonComponent { data: [Object] }
  ]
}

No extra buttons after it has been edited. Enable, Disable, Exit Those are the buttons that are unedited embed.

Right, but in my eyes, you just define enablebuttone and disablebuttone, but never actually send them anywhere

Noxxe•2y ago

that was to edit the buttons, so how would I edit the actionrow to include the edited buttons. and still keep the exit button

Mozzy•2y ago

You would probably need to use const newRow = ActionRowBuilder.from(messageActionRow1) judging by the breaking changes guide

Noxxe•2y ago

Ok i'll try that.

it's really pissing me off, I'll keep this open for now and if find a solution I will let you know I HAVE FIGURED IT OUT!!!

You have to store the old action row as a new one, and then edit the buttons from the new action row and then update the message components. Just ignore line 17
