The published bot is not working

Context: everything works in emulator. Problem: on the production nothing works and I tried to solve the issue with the ChatGPT so below I describe what I did. Problem details (what actually is wrong): 1. When I started testing bot on production - I wrote "Hi" and then this first message stored in the emulator and production too. 2. When I open the bot on production - it does not start the initial message from node automatically, but requires me to input the text (which is not the behavior I intent). 3. When I post the text before I tried to do debugging (I am not a programmer), it showed no result at all. 4. After I did what Chat GPT suggested: Step 1 — Prove if it’s a channel problem or a workflow problem In Main workflow, create a new node: PROD_TEST Add one Text card: ✅ Production is connected. Connect Start → PROD_TEST (direct, no other nodes) Publish Open production chat → type “hi” As a result I had everything like Chat GPT suggested BUT then I wanted to delete this : ✅ Production is connected. node and I did. HOWEVER, after I connected Strt node to the First node with welcome message and saved everything - on production after typing "Hi" (it is still non-automatic) - I typed me : ✅ Production is connected. - but this node was already deleted from chatbot. As of now - I need to finish this student task asap. Someone, who is more expert than I am please help me to debug this and make the bot work on production. Thank you. Attaching the screenshot what it looks like now. #1111009377525186570 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1460991762255446106/1460991762762825841/image.png?ex=697b631c&is=697a119c&hm=db55f906e6ae84616331d8a5231ee9bafb76622db2e4eba084a06058ddea0cfd& https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1460991762255446106/1460991763073335336/image.png?ex=697b631c&is=697a119c&hm=8465541ff7444c6db4275124296a38e2486d4881a75d78e2e68b3514dd2ad127&
And another problem is the workflow - I have connected the main workflows to additional ones and it is still does not work.

Taking a look 🙂
Because the initial message is not even sending, thats making me think an older version bot is present in producton!
@rapid-yak-81471 can you try publishing and trying again?
r
I changed it and it worked. Can you probably share what you see while opening the bot? https://cdn.botpress.cloud/webchat/v3.5/shareable.html?configUrl=https://files.bpcontent.cloud/2025/12/27/17/20251227174650-6I18BW2W.json I see right now the challenges that not everything works as planned in the bot`s workflows(
