Question on message component collector

Code: https://pastebin.com/BNTzU7AQ I have a message with register, home and remove buttons, when clicking on register button, the embed changes and it shows a string select menu, upon selecting items, the embed content changes accordingly and it shows home button to go back to main menu, everything works, but the issue is that after selecting items from the menu, the home button is taking some time to load and it shows 'This interaction failed' although nothing is breaking and the button works. What am I doing wrong here? Please help.

You're not responding to the interaction

d.js docs•20h ago

:method: ButtonInteraction#update() @14.16.3 Updates the original message of the component on which the interaction was received on.

// Remove the components from the message
interaction.update({
  content: "A component interaction was received",
  components: []
})
  .then(console.log)
  .catch(console.error);

// Remove the components from the message
interaction.update({
  content: "A component interaction was received",
  components: []
})
  .then(console.log)
  .catch(console.error);

Use that instead of .edit

have i set up my collectors correctly? the string select collector is nested inside the button collector if i'm using selectInteraction.deferUpdate() and then selectInteraction.update({ i'm getting interaction already replied error

Use editReply then also you can use a single collector just omit the componentType and it will collect both interactions

weird stuff happens when i use editReply, it works the first time, the 2nd time i get unknown interaction

treble/luna•20h ago

yeah because your collectors are nested sorry

𝗦𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗻OP•20h ago

i think you're correct because i logged the interaction and 2nd time it was sending 2 interactions

treble/luna•20h ago

you can just use your first collector, omit componentType and then guard

d.js docs•20h ago

:method: BaseInteraction#isButton() @14.16.3 Indicates whether this interaction is a ButtonInteraction.
