Ticket Categories

Type: Array of Objects

Define ticket types and their settings. Each category represents a different ticket type (e.g., General Support, Bug Reports, Appeals, etc.).

ticket_categories: [
    {
        category: "General Support",
        description: "Select to create a General ticket.",
        emoji: "❓",
        category_id: "833732233021751306",
        permission_level: 0,
        ticket_create_questions: "first_question_set",
        required_role_to_open: [],
        mention_roles: ["804354029076348959"],
        ticket_create_msg: "default",
    },
    {
        category: "Bug Report",
        description: "Report bugs or issues with the server.",
        emoji: "🐛",
        category_id: "833732304366338128",
        permission_level: 1,
        ticket_create_questions: "bug_questions",
        required_role_to_open: [],
        mention_roles: ["804354022612926515"],
        ticket_create_msg: "bug_template",
    },
    {
        category: "VIP Support",
        description: "Priority support for VIP members.",
        emoji: "⭐",
        category_id: "833732400000000000",
        permission_level: 0,
        ticket_create_questions: null,
        required_role_to_open: ["123456789012345678"], // VIP Role ID
        mention_roles: ["804354019455139900"],
        ticket_create_msg: "vip_template",
    },
]

category - Category name displayed in the ticket panel and channel description - Category description shown in panel dropdown/buttons emoji - Emoji for category button (use Discord emoji picker or custom emoji ID) category_id - Discord category ID where ticket channels will be created permission_level - Starting permission level (0 = lowest, higher numbers = more restricted) ticket_create_questions - Question set ID from question_list or null to skip questions required_role_to_open - Array of role IDs required to open this ticket type (empty array = anyone can open) mention_roles - Array of role IDs to ping when ticket is created (e.g., support team roles) ticket_create_msg - Message template ID from ticket_create_message section

Example Use Cases:

General Support: Open to everyone, low permission level, asks basic questions
Bug Report: Open to everyone, higher permission for developers, asks detailed bug info
VIP Support: Restricted to VIP role, pings senior staff, no questions needed
Appeals: Open to everyone, highest permission for admins, asks for appeal details

Permission Levels

Type: Array of Strings

Define ticket access hierarchy using Discord role IDs. This creates a tiered support system where higher-level staff can access lower-level tickets.

permission_levels: [
    "804354029076348959", // Level 0 - Helper/Support (lowest)
    "804354022612926515", // Level 1 - Moderator
    "804354019455139900", // Level 2 - Senior Moderator
    "804354017580810260", // Level 3 - Admin (highest)
]

How Permission Levels Work:

Position in Array: Index 0 is the lowest level, higher indexes = higher permission levels
Ticket Access: Staff with a role can see tickets at their level AND all levels below them
Starting Level: Tickets start at the permission_level set in their category
Escalation: Use /televate to increase level, /tlower to decrease level

Detailed Example:

Let's say you have these permission levels:

Level 0: Helper role (ID: 111111111111111111)
Level 1: Moderator role (ID: 222222222222222222)
Level 2: Admin role (ID: 333333333333333333)

Scenario 1 - General Support Ticket (permission_level: 0)

✅ Helpers can see it (they are level 0)
✅ Moderators can see it (level 1 can access level 0)
✅ Admins can see it (level 2 can access levels 0 and 1)

Scenario 2 - Bug Report Ticket (permission_level: 1)

❌ Helpers CANNOT see it (level 0 cannot access level 1)
✅ Moderators can see it (they are level 1)
✅ Admins can see it (level 2 can access level 1)

Scenario 3 - Ticket Elevated to Level 2

❌ Helpers CANNOT see it
❌ Moderators CANNOT see it
✅ Only Admins can see it (level 2)

Common Setup:

Level 0: Junior Support / Helpers
Level 1: Moderators / Regular Support
Level 2: Senior Moderators / Team Leads
Level 3: Administrators / Management

This allows tickets to start with helpers, then be escalated to mods, then admins if needed.

Ticket Create Questions

question - Question text displayed to the user max_length - For text: max characters allowed. For dropdowns: max number of options user can select min_length - For text: min characters required. For dropdowns: min number of options user must select placeholder - Placeholder text shown in the input field select_options - Empty array [] = text input. Array with values = dropdown menu required - true = must be answered, false = optional

Important: For select menus (dropdowns), max_length and min_length control how many options can be selected, NOT the character length of each option.

Example:

max_length: 1, min_length: 1 = User must select exactly 1 option
max_length: 3, min_length: 1 = User can select 1 to 3 options
max_length: 5, min_length: 2 = User must select between 2 and 5 options

    question: "What is your Minecraft username?",

    placeholder: "Enter your username...",
    select_options: [],
    required: true,
}

Text Input (Long Answer):

{
    question: "Describe what happened",
    max_length: 1000,
    min_length: 30,

    select_options: [],
    required: true,
}

    min_length: 1,
    placeholder: "Select affected features...",
    select_options: ['Chat', 'Commands', 'Economy', 'PvP', 'Building'],
    required: true,
}

Optional Question:

{
    question: "Additional information (optional)",
    max_length: 500,
    min_length: 0,
    placeholder: "Any other details...",
    select_options: [],
