=============================SOLVED=========================
I'm trying to make a help command for my discord bot with menus and buttons, but I encountered multiple problems:
I don't know how to handle the "Interaction failed" text showing up when I click a button even tho the button responded.
How can I use the deferUpdate() for buttons in the latest discord.js? If I should use collectors, where should I put the collector? I read the official docs but still don't understand how to use it.
I also tried not to use collectors or await, but I always get "Interaction has been acknowledged" the second time I use the help command.
Furthermore, I'm always getting errors like Invalid Body Form, Unknown interaction, or Interaction has already been acknowledged when clicking the buttons.
Here's the part of my code handling the interaction:
message.channel.send({
embeds: [page1], components:[row]
}).then((msg) => {
let times = 0
var interval = setInterval(function(){
times = 1;
if(times === 15){
clearInterval(interval);
firstBtn.setDisabled(true)
lastBtn.setDisabled(true)
}
}, 1000);
client.on('interactionCreate', interaction => {
if (!interaction.isButton()) return;
if(interaction.customId == 'next'){
curPage = 1
firstBtn.setDisabled(false)
previousBtn.setDisabled(false)
nextBtn.setDisabled(false)
if(curPage == maxPage){
nextBtn.setDisabled(true)
lastBtn.setDisabled(true)
}
msg.edit({embeds: [pages[curPage-1]], components:[row]})
} else if(interaction.customId == 'previous'){
curPage -= 1
lastBtn.setDisabled(false)
previousBtn.setDisabled(false)
nextBtn.setDisabled(false)
if(curPage == 1){
previousBtn.setDisabled(true)
firstBtn.setDisabled(true)
}
msg.edit({embeds: [pages[curPage-1]], components:[row]})
} else if(interaction.customId == 'first'){
curPage = 1
firstBtn.setDisabled(true)
lastBtn.setDisabled(false)
previousBtn.setDisabled(true)
nextBtn.setDisabled(false)
msg.edit({embeds: [pages[curPage-1]], components:[row]})
} else if(interaction.customId == 'last'){
curPage = maxPage
firstBtn.setDisabled(false)
lastBtn.setDisabled(true)
nextBtn.setDisabled(true)
previousBtn.setDisabled(false)
msg.edit({embeds: [pages[curPage-1]], components:[row]})
}
const collector = interaction.channel.createMessageComponentCollector({ time: 3500 });
collector.on('collect', async i => {
if(i.user.id === interaction.user.id){
if (interaction.isButton()) {
interaction.deferUpdate();
}
}
});
collector.on('end', collected => {console.log(`Collected ${collected.size} items`); collector.stop()});
});
})
},

CodePudding user response：
You need to handle buttons inside your collector, and defer the collector's buttons, not the interaction itself.
So remove completely the client.on part, and do something like this:
// should definitely increase the time in your collector.
const collector = interaction.channel.createMessageComponentCollector({ time: 3500 });
collector.on('collect', async i => {
// check if the author triggered the interaction
if(i.member.id != interaction.user.id) {
return i.reply({ content: `This interaction is not for you`, ephemeral: true})
}
if(i.customId == 'next') {
// defer the interaction
await i.deferUpdate();
curPage = 1
firstBtn.setDisabled(false)
previousBtn.setDisabled(false)
nextBtn.setDisabled(false)
if(curPage == maxPage){
nextBtn.setDisabled(true)
lastBtn.setDisabled(true)
}
msg.edit({embeds: [pages[curPage-1]], components:[row]})
}
if(i.customId == 'previous') {
// defer update
await i.deferUpdate();
// Rest of your code
}
// and so on
});
