handleNewUserMessage is doing nothing ?

Hello,

I have just installed react-chat-widget and set it up correctly.

I can add messages to it using addResponseMessage and everything looks good.

BUT when I enter some text in the chat input and press ‘enter’ or click on the send button, nothing is happening. Nothing in the console as well, no errors or logs from the handleNewUserMessage callback.

I don’t get it as it’s the most basic feature.

import React, {useEffect} from "react";
import {addResponseMessage, Widget} from "react-chat-widget";

import "react-chat-widget/lib/styles.css";

function App() {
    useEffect(() => {
        addResponseMessage("Hello");
        addResponseMessage("What would you like to do ?");
    }, []);

    const handleNewUserMessage = (newMessage) => {
        console.log("New message incoming!", newMessage);
        // Now send the message throught the backend API
        addResponseMessage("ok");
    };

    return (
        <div className="App">
            <Widget
                handleNewUserMessage={handleNewUserMessage}>
        </div>
    );
}

any help would be welcome, thanks

@mcallegari10 really a big thanks for your fast fix (few minutes), really awesome. Thanks to it, I have added a callback to make it works on the previous version, it was for an urgent prototype. So you saved my day.

I have tried the new version and it’s working just fine as expected now 😄

Tested and works like a charm. Thanks @mcallegari10 😃

Guys, try reinstalling the chat-widget if it doesn’t work for you after updating. It did for me that way.
