Page Buttons fail to work after editing response

[winged ledge]

You are not even sending a message

[blazing cairn]

await ctx.defer() 😥

[humble pawn]

thats not a message

you dont even have to defer, you arent doing anything that takes long

[blazing cairn]

but what if i need to defer

[humble pawn]

then you need to respond with something first

read the guide on paginators

[blazing cairn]

im editing my response to h?

[humble pawn]

i think paginators have their own p.respond

[humble pawn]

you never respond.

[blazing cairn]

i dont think you can attach local files with this one 😔

[blazing cairn]

@pagetest.command(name="test")
    async def pagetest_test(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
        await ctx.defer()
        await asyncio.sleep(5)

        pageGroups = [
            pages.PageGroup(
                pages = ["hi", discord.Embed(title="chat")],
                label = "first group",
                description = "test"
            ),
            pages.PageGroup(
                pages = ["hi", "chat"],
                label = "second group",
                description = "test"
            ),
        ]

        pageGroups[0].pages[1].set_thumbnail(url = "attachment://image.png")

        file = discord.File(fp="temp/image.png", filename="image.png")
        message = await ctx.edit(file=file)
        paginator = pages.Paginator(pages=pageGroups, show_menu=True)
        await paginator.edit(message=message)

so im trying to attach image to the second page's embed but buttons dont work 😦

[humble pawn]

why do you do asyncio sleep??

[edgy lagoon]

f = discord.File("some_file_path", filename="image.png")
e = discord.Embed()
e.set_image(url="attachment://image.png")
await messagable.send(file=f, embed=e)```

[blazing cairn]

imagine some function that takes some time 😊

[humble pawn]

yea but you dont have anything there that takes time.

[blazing cairn]

apis can take more time to respond and discord gives "The application did not respond" 🤨

[humble pawn]

...why do you replace it in such a misleading way

lol

[humble pawn]

anyway do this

[blazing cairn]

isnt that what im doing already? cant even reach my embed since buttons dont work

[humble pawn]

no it isnt lol

you are setting the thumbnail

i dont think that can use a local file

[blazing cairn]

still doesnt solve the problem with buttons???

[humble pawn]

decide on one problem at once lol
