Having trouble trying to get my bot to schedule a message. There are no errors, I am just not getting the desired output

I am trying to create a discord bot where you can schedule a message to be sent at a certain time. I have got my bot to work all the way until the bot ask "Please send the message you would like to schedule". Once the bot ask that and the user does not respond, the bot does not do anything after that. I suspect the code is not sending the information to the mongodb database or the collector is not actually collecting anything, however I do not know why. Can someone please tell me what could be going wrong, I appreciate the help

const momentTimeZones = require('moment-timezone')
const { MessageCollector } = require('discord.js')
const scheduledSchema = require('../models/scheduled-schema')
module.exports = {
    requiredPermissions: ['ADMINISTRATOR'],
    expectedArgs: '<Channel tag> <YYYY/MM/DD> <HH:MM> <"AM" or "PM"> <Timezone>',
    minArgs: 5,
    maxArgs: 5,
    init: (client) => {
        const checkForPosts = async () =>{
            const query ={
                date: {
                    $lte: Date.now()
                }
            }
            const results = await scheduledSchema.find(query)
            for (const post of results){
                const {guildId, channelId, content} = post
                const guild = await client.guilds.fetch(guildId)
                if(!guild){
                    continue
                }
                const channel = guild.channels.cache.get(channelId)
                if(!channel){
                    continue
                }
            }
   
            await scheduledSchema.deleteMany(query)
            setTimeout(checkForPosts, 1000 * 10)
        }
    },
    callback: async ({ message, args}) => {
        const {mentions, guild, channel} = message
        const targetChannel = mentions.channels.first()
        if(!targetChannel){
            message.reply('Please tag a channel to send your message in')
            return
        }
        // Remove the channel tag from the args array
        args.shift()
        const [date, time, clockType, timeZone] = args
        if (clockType !== 'AM' && clockType !== 'PM'){
            message.reply(`You must provide either "AM" or "PM", you provided "${clockType}"`)
            return
        }
        const validTimeZones = momentTimeZones.tz.names()
        if(!validTimeZones.includes(timeZone)){
            message.reply('Unknown timezone!')
            return
        }
        const targetDate = momentTimeZones.tz(
            `${date} ${time} ${clockType}`,
            'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm A',
            timeZone
        )
        message.reply('Please type the message you would like to say')
        //const collector = new MessageCollector(channel)
        const filter = (newMessage) => {
            return newMessage.author.id === message.author.id
        }
        const collector = new MessageCollector(channel, filter, {
            max: 1,
            time: 1000 * 60 // 60 seconds
        })
        collector.on('collect', m => {
            console.log(`Collected ${m.content}`);
        });
 
        collector.on('end', async (collected) => {
            const collectedMessage = collected.first()
            if(!collectedMessage){
                message.reply('You did not reply in time.')
                return
            }
           
            message.reply('Your message has been scheduled.')
           await new scheduledSchema({
               date: targetDate.valueOf(),
               content: collectedMessage.content,
               guildId: guild.id,
               channelId: targetChannel.id
           }).save()
       
        })
       
    },
}

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...
