🎭 How to Create Role Menus (SUPER EASY!)

Step 1: Run the command

/create-role-menu

Step 2: Fill in the form

A Discord form will pop up with the following fields:

Menu Title:

Choose Your Region

Menu Description:

Select your region from the dropdown below!

Roles (mention with @): Simply type @ and select roles - that’s it! The bot will use the role’s actual name and emoji.

@USA @Europe @Asia @Africa

Or one per line:

@USA
@Europe
@Asia
@Africa

Exclusive? (yes/no):

yes

Step 3: Submit!

The bot will create a beautiful dropdown menu with the roles’ actual names and emojis!

Tips:

Just type @ and Discord will show you all available roles to pick from
The bot automatically uses the role’s actual emoji (if it has one) or a default 🎭
The bot automatically uses the role’s actual name
Set “yes” for EXCLUSIVE (LOCKED) - users can only pick ONE role and CANNOT change it unless they leave and rejoin
Set “no” for multi-select if users can pick multiple roles
After you submit, a beautiful dropdown menu appears for users to select from!
When users select a role, they automatically get access to that role’s channels
IMPORTANT: For exclusive roles, once selected, the choice is LOCKED permanently (until user leaves server)
