messageCreate not working with DMs

Greetings! I'm having troubles getting the messageCreate event to run with DMs. When I send a server message it all works well, but in DMs it simply refuses to work. listeners/messageCreate.ts:

import { ApplyOptions } from '@sapphire/decorators';
import { Listener } from '@sapphire/framework';
import { Events, Message } from 'discord.js';

@ApplyOptions<Listener.Options>({
  event: Events.MessageCreate,
})
export class MessageCreateListener extends Listener {
  public async run(message: Message) {
    console.log('test');
    // ...
  }
}

import { ApplyOptions } from '@sapphire/decorators';
import { Listener } from '@sapphire/framework';
import { Events, Message } from 'discord.js';

@ApplyOptions<Listener.Options>({
  event: Events.MessageCreate,
})
export class MessageCreateListener extends Listener {
  public async run(message: Message) {
    console.log('test');
    // ...
  }
}

Intents in client constructor:

  intents: [
    IntentBits.Guilds,
    IntentBits.GuildMembers,
    IntentBits.GuildMessages,
    IntentBits.DirectMessages,
    IntentBits.MessageContent,
  ],

  intents: [
    IntentBits.Guilds,
    IntentBits.GuildMembers,
    IntentBits.GuildMessages,
    IntentBits.DirectMessages,
    IntentBits.MessageContent,
  ],

I've also tripled checked whether the message intent is enabled in developer dashboard

Enable the channel partial in your client options https://old.discordjs.dev/#/docs/discord.js/main/typedef/Partials

Discord.js

Discord.js is a powerful node.js module that allows you to interact with the Discord API very easily. It takes a much more object-oriented approach than most other JS Discord libraries, making your bot's code significantly tidier and easier to comprehend.

Imagine a guide... that explores the many possibilities for your discord.js bot.

And as the links above show, this is discordjs related. Not sapphire.

That did the trick, thanks! I didn't know what the exact problem was so I wasn't sure whether to post here or elsewhere, apologies
