Message+ app no long vibrating Galaxy S7 with Oreo 8.0 update

After the 8.0 Oreo update yesterday, my Message+ application no longer has the option to vibrate only on incoming texts. You can set to High (Sound and Vibrate), Medium (no Sound, visual only), and Low (nothing). Message+ 6.6.6 is the version. Running on a Galaxy S7.

All I do is text. If my text messaging didn’t work, I may as well have no phone. I understand how important this is to you. I’ll be more than happy to assist you. Does your phone vibrate when you receive other notifications? Have you checked the notification setting in the phone itself, see here https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-210674/. If you turn the volume down on your phone until it reaches the vibrate mode, do you not get a vibrating notification when you receive a text this way?

I figured this out, but it's not very intuitive. You need to go into the App settings, and choose the Sound option, and then set your Sound to "Silent". It would be better if there was some setting that said "Vibrate Only".

I have a Note 9 and my texts are also not vibrating. I tried this fix and it did make my texts vibrate, but I also want them to make sound. How can I do this? The texts vibrate if I'm on vibrate or Do Not Disturb, but the only make sound otherwise. It used to make sound and also vibrate.
