Conversation starter trigger is not working
# 🤝help
m
I did everything step-by-step with the new tutorial video but nothing seems to be working for me. I connect Trigger node to my first Standard node with a message I want it to show at start but nothing shows up even after clicking the Publish button and testing it out via Share button. Also does not work in the messenger the bot is connected to.

Same, followed tutorial on youtube but it doesn't send first message.
p
Sorry this is a dumb question, but where can I find the trigger node?
o
i tried it as well. it will after publish and on the shareble link.

This is from the docs Welcome Messages can be tested only after publishing the chatbot and can be tested mainly from the web chat screen. Like in the shareable link, the chat from the chatbot dashboard or the embedded web chat component.
Im guessing if we want to test it, we gotta embed it to a site. Seems like we cant use the testing environment
b
you can test using the "share" button from the studio, as I demonstrate in the video on our YouTube channel 🙂
m
messenger the bot is connected to does not show the conversation starter either
p
Yeah Im not sure why Im not getting this. @,@
b
what's going wrong for you?
p
Well first of all, thank you for wanting to help. second, Im unsure why I cant make the node look like the one in the picture or like in the video.
b
did you follow this video?

you should just be able to drag the conversation started card into your studio and it'll create a trigger node 🙂
p
Oh my goodness, yes. I missed that. Somehow I pulled the wrong thing as the node. Alright, I'll try this again and will update. Thank you. Cheers~

It did start the conversation first. Woo! Now to add some styling to this bot to make it look fancy

p
Cant say that I have, sorry

p
Oh, also. thanks for the video earlier. Really helped.
b
I upload tons of videos here for tasks within Botpress^

I'll use this as my main reference for styling now.

Aww man you guys even have a styler tool. Thats really cool. Wonder if I can add in sounds per message
b
we don't support custom sounds... yet 👀 #1111026806254993459

Request, made. Having fun with botpress so far. Well done @bumpy-butcher-41910 and the team.
b
Right I’m having the initial problem, I won’t even let me go into the trigger to edit it and also when set up, click publish and then share but the bot message doesn’t show up
Ignore me I’m a bot myself, just had to quite a while for the message to pop up
m
hmm I'm still haveing the problem
p
I had to embed it to a HTML file. From there the chatbot was able to send the message first
s
im my chatbot is not embedded and will only on a shareable link the tigger doesnt work? my problem is that when i drag conversation started on the studio doesnt work
