Apparently your triceps are really weak. Did you just start working out?

Exhaust your triceps with extensions then go directly to wide grip bench press. Pre-exhaust principle.

Go with dumbbell presses. Get your contractions right and youll definitely hit your chest instead of triceps..

If you're just starting, forget about preexhausting stuff. Just keep adding weight to your bench when you can. Also, lean forward while doing dips. Maybe finish up with a dumbbell flys/dumbbell press superset to really hit the pecs.

you tried some decline bench press?....if that doesn't get the chest involved, you are just having some form problem...
be shure that when your shoulders come forward, they press down, too....

Just my opinion...
Your grip is too wide causing you to push outward which is isolating your triceps.
Go with lighter weight, bring your grip in closer, slow down your rep and focus pushing the bar up by contracting your chest muscles.
Once you get your technique right and then start increasing your weight and grip width.
You should feel that squeeze in your chest each rep.

You have to get your bi's, tri's, and forearms stronger so you can hold enough weight to build other muscle.
It takes months to get your muscles built to the same level to push and pull the way you want to

Retract your scalpula on presses.

Don't fully extend. Do dips. Deep flyes . Keep pinky on ring part of bar. Do close grip bench and decline bench. You have to get your stamina up in the arms.
At the end of your workout, do a flat flye and do a static hold at the bottom to stretch the chest. Do this once for 30 seconds and do as much weight as possible.
Do not do Smith machine as a beginner. You will not develop the stabilizer muscles.

Pre-exhaust your chest with a different movement before you hit bench so you pecs fail before your triceps fail.

Make sure you're doing legitimate chest presses...and not winging you arms and using too much of your shoulders.
A huge number of people bench press slightly wrong
