Fetching a slash command reply's ID before it's sent

Title basically explains what I'm trying to do. I'm creating a post system, but instead of constantly doing a chain of replies, I want to just edit the topmost message by passing it's ID throughout all components. postCommand.js

        // Deferred Reply
        const deferredReply = await interaction.deferReply();

        // Send Reply
        const reply = await interaction.editReply({
            content: "Posting System",
        });

        // Select Menu
        const newSelectMenu = new StringSelectMenuBuilder()
            .addOptions(
                new SSMOB()
                    .setLabel("Option1")
                    .setDescription("The first option.")
                    .setValue("Option1")
            )
            .setCustomId(
                `postChooseType.${interaction.user.id}.${fetchedReply.id}`
            );

        // Action Row
        const AR = new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(newSelectMenu);

        // Add Components
        reply.edit({
            components: [AR],
        });

        // Deferred Reply
        const deferredReply = await interaction.deferReply();

        // Send Reply
        const reply = await interaction.editReply({
            content: "Posting System",
        });

        // Select Menu
        const newSelectMenu = new StringSelectMenuBuilder()
            .addOptions(
                new SSMOB()
                    .setLabel("Option1")
                    .setDescription("The first option.")
                    .setValue("Option1")
            )
            .setCustomId(
                `postChooseType.${interaction.user.id}.${fetchedReply.id}`
            );

        // Action Row
        const AR = new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(newSelectMenu);

        // Add Components
        reply.edit({
            components: [AR],
        });

I tried getting the reply ID from the deferredReply, but that returns a completely different ID to the one that get's sent. The only method that works is by setting the customId after the message was sent, and then editing the reply to add the selectMenu. I want to do this all before the event is sent.

Error when trying to show modal after clicking button.

I'm trying to show a modal when the user clicks a button included in the reply, but I keep getting the 'InteractionAlreadyReplied' error.

// Dependencies
const { ButtonBuilder, ButtonStyle, ModalBuilder, TextInputBuilder, TextInputStyle, ActionRowBuilder } = require("discord.js");

module.exports = async function (interaction) {
    // Variables
    let msg;
    let collector;

    // Buttons
    const editDataButton = new ButtonBuilder()
        .setCustomId("editDataButton")
        .setLabel("EditID")
        .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Primary);
    const editDataRow = new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(editDataButton);

    // Modals
    const editIDModal = new ModalBuilder()
        .setCustomId("editIDModal")
        .setTitle("EditID")

    // Text Inputs
    const IDInput = new TextInputBuilder()
        .setCustomId("IDInput")
        .setPlaceholder("ID")
        .setStyle(TextInputStyle.Short)
        .setMinLength(1)
        .setMaxLength(20)
        .setRequired(true);

    // Set Modal Components
    editIDModal.addComponents(IDInput);

    msg = await interaction.reply({
    content: "Please edit your account ID below.",
        components: [editDataRow],
    });

    collector = msg.createMessageComponentCollector();

    collector.on("collect", async (i) => {
        if (i.customId == "editDataButton") {
            await interaction.showModal(editIDModal)
        }
    });
};

// Dependencies
const { ButtonBuilder, ButtonStyle, ModalBuilder, TextInputBuilder, TextInputStyle, ActionRowBuilder } = require("discord.js");

module.exports = async function (interaction) {
    // Variables
    let msg;
    let collector;

    // Buttons
    const editDataButton = new ButtonBuilder()
        .setCustomId("editDataButton")
        .setLabel("EditID")
        .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Primary);
    const editDataRow = new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(editDataButton);

    // Modals
    const editIDModal = new ModalBuilder()
        .setCustomId("editIDModal")
        .setTitle("EditID")

    // Text Inputs
    const IDInput = new TextInputBuilder()
        .setCustomId("IDInput")
        .setPlaceholder("ID")
        .setStyle(TextInputStyle.Short)
        .setMinLength(1)
        .setMaxLength(20)
        .setRequired(true);

    // Set Modal Components
    editIDModal.addComponents(IDInput);

    msg = await interaction.reply({
    content: "Please edit your account ID below.",
        components: [editDataRow],
    });

    collector = msg.createMessageComponentCollector();

    collector.on("collect", async (i) => {
        if (i.customId == "editDataButton") {
            await interaction.showModal(editIDModal)
        }
    });
};

I was told using deferReply was previously stopping it from working, so I switched it to a normal reply. Still getting the same error. P.S. There's other variables in there due to there being database management things, I removed them to clear up what's causing the issue.
