Thread-Style Tickets Premium

Thread-Style mode creates each ticket as a private thread inside a designated parent channel, instead of creating a new channel. This keeps your server's channel list clean while still giving each ticket its own private conversation space.

How Thread-Style Works

When a user clicks the Create Ticket button on a thread-style panel:

  1. 1
    BetterTicket creates a private thread inside the configured parent channel.
  2. 2
    The ticket opener is automatically added to the thread.
  3. 3
    If Auto-Add Team is enabled, your support team members are added as well.
  4. 4
    The Ticket Message is posted inside the thread.

From the user's perspective, a new thread appears in the parent channel's thread list with only them and the support team in it.

Requirements

Thread-Style tickets require both a Discord server boost level and specific bot permissions. Make sure these are in place before enabling:

Discord Server Requirement

  • Your server must be at Boost Level 2 or higher to use private threads.

BetterTicket Bot Permissions

BetterTicket must have the following permissions in the parent channel (or globally):

PermissionWhy it's needed
Create Private ThreadsRequired to create private threads for each ticket.
Send Messages in ThreadsRequired to post the Ticket Message inside the thread.
Manage ThreadsRequired to add members to the thread and archive/delete it.

Note: If your server is below Boost Level 2, thread-style panels will not work. The Create Ticket button will either fail silently or return an error. Check your server's boost level before enabling this feature.

Configuration

SettingDescription
Enable Thread StyleToggle on to switch this panel from channel-style to thread-style ticket creation.
Parent ChannelThe Discord channel under which all ticket threads will be created. Choose a dedicated channel (e.g. #tickets).
Auto-Add TeamWhen enabled, all members of your support team roles are automatically added to each new thread when it's created.
Non-Mod InvitesWhen enabled, the ticket opener can invite other users to the thread themselves. Useful for group support or if a customer needs to add a colleague.

Limitations

  • Threads cannot be moved to a category like channels can. The Closed Category setting does not apply.
  • All ticket threads live under the same parent channel. Make sure that channel is accessible to BetterTicket.
  • Discord limits private threads to servers at Boost Level 2 or higher. This cannot be worked around.
  • Archived (closed) threads may still appear in the parent channel's thread list until manually deleted.
