I'm trying to make a interaction based questionnaire, the user gets a DM with a button, by clicking the button, the user starts a message collector and the bot asks questions, however, the message collector seems to be setup wrong, it fails to read.
I haven't worked with interactions much, so I stick to classic commands, I'm trying to read the interaction channel and start a message collector in the DM, I hope I explained everything, any questions please ask.
Error:
Cannot read properties of null (reading 'createMessageCollector')
