Channel messages are not working

[claytondukes]

DM's work now (thanks!), but when I try the same commands in a channel, no luck. e.g.: search movie harry potter works in DM, but I tried @couchpotato search movie harry potter and just search movie harry potter in the channel...no reply. (no error log either)

Am I just doing it wrong?

Edit: I just realized it is a private channel, but also just tried creating a public channel. Doesn't work there either :(

After a few more minutes, I did get a message in the log, not sure if it is related:

[RolfKoenders]

I indeed remember there was an issue with channels being created after the bot was already connected. Will investigate!

[claytondukes]

The first channel was created before the bot was connected.

[claytondukes]

Hi Rolf, I tried it out and no longer get an error message but noticed the following from a channel: @cpbot search movie harry potter works in a public channel but not in a private channel. @cpbot download movie harry potter works in a public channel but not in a private channel. @cpbot help doesn't work at all.

[RolfKoenders]

@claytondukes Ive never tried private channels, is the bot invited to the private channel as well? Help works in a channel and in a pm. Just tried a pm.
