How to make self-roles on Discord (button role menus)
Let members pick their own roles (colors, pronouns, pings, games) from button menus. Ready-made presets, free with Elarix.
The fast way: presets
- Run /role menu preset and pick a preset. Elarix creates the category and all its roles.
- Run /role menu post in your roles channel.
Your own categories
- /role menu create makes an empty category. Choose whether members can pick one or several.
- /role menu add adds a role (with an emoji if you like).
- /role menu post posts the picker. Members tap a button and choose.
Just a few roles?
/role panel posts a simple panel with up to 5 role buttons.
Questions
Is this the same as reaction roles?
It does the same job with buttons instead of reactions, which are easier to use on phones.
