Suggestions
A Suggest button that opens a form and posts member ideas to a channel you choose, staff-only or public.
How it works
The panel is an embed with a Suggest button posted where members can see it. Pressing it opens a form with an optional title and a suggestion box (10 to 1500 characters). The bot posts the suggestion as a numbered embed to the review channel, adds thumbs-up and thumbs-down reactions if voting is on, and tells the member their number.
Because the review channel is a normal Discord channel, its permissions decide who reads suggestions: keep it staff-only to triage in private, or make it public so members can vote.
Setup
- /suggestions setup review_channel:<#channel>
- Required. Where suggestions are posted. Optional: channel (where the panel goes), title, message, button_label, color, image, thumbnail, footer, show_author, voting.
- /suggestions post [channel]
- Posts the panel, or edits it in place if it is already posted.
- /suggestions status
- Current settings and how many suggestions have been sent.
- /suggestions off
- Turns the feature off; the button then tells members it is disabled.
- Suggestions page (dashboard)
- The same fields with a preview. Saving refreshes a posted panel.
Options
- show_author
- On by default: the embed shows the member's name and avatar and their user ID in the footer. Off makes suggestions anonymous to readers; the bot still knows who sent it only through the counter, not the record.
- voting
- On by default: adds 👍 and 👎 to every suggestion so the review channel doubles as a vote.
- Panel styling
- Title, message, button label, color, image, thumbnail and footer. Leave image empty to use the server default image from the Customize page.
The bot needs Send Messages, Embed Links and Add Reactions in the review channel. Suggestions is its own module; turning it off hides the command and disables the button.
