Create an Application Panel

The wizard for application panels, plus how they differ from ticket panels.

The wizard for application panels uses almost the same flow as ticket panels, with one important difference at Step 1: you pick Application Panel instead of Ticket Panel. Because application panels do not create channels, the Ticket Style step is not shown, so the wizard has 3 steps: Select Panel Type, Select Send Channel, then Configure Panel Defaults (optional).

Starting the wizard

1. Sidebar, then Panels.
2. + New Panel.
3. At Step 1, pick Application Panel (the right-hand card).
4. Continue.

1

Step 1: Pick Application Panel

Collect applications via pop-up forms. Staff can review, approve, or deny submissions.

2

Step 2: Select Send Channel

Pick the channel where the application panel message will be posted. You must pick a channel here before you can finish the wizard.

Step 3: Configure Panel Defaults (Application variant)

For application panels, the Panel Defaults step exposes a smaller set of defaults than ticket panels:

Field	Description	Is Premium?
Default Log Channel	Channel where submissions for inheriting options will be logged. Leave empty to require each option to override.	No (free)
Default Blocked Roles	Users with any of these roles will be blocked from inheriting application options.	Premium
Default Required Roles	Inheriting options will require any of these roles to apply.	Premium

Set the Default Log Channel here unless every application option will override it. Without this set anywhere (panel default OR per-option override), submissions can't be logged and reviewers won't see them.

→ Panel-wide defaults

After the wizard

You land in the panel editor with an empty embed and one default apply button. From here:

1. Edit the embed.
2. Configure the apply button (label, color, emoji).
3. Configure the application option's settings. This is the bulk of the work. See Designing your application.

Application-option settings are laid out flat (not in tabs like ticket-option settings). The layout includes Application Type, Log Channel, Application Questions, Eligibility Requirements, Reapplication Settings, Granted Roles, Reviewer Roles, Required/Blocked Roles, Notifications, and Option Status.

Key differences from ticket panels

	Ticket panel	Application panel
Click outcome	Channel opens	Pop-up form opens. Submission goes to review queue
Per-option layout	General / Messages / Advanced tabs	Flat (no tabs)
Form questions	Up to 5 (same cap)	Up to 5 (same cap)
Auto-grant roles	No	Yes, on approve
Eligibility checks	Required/Blocked roles	+ Account age + Server membership age
Outcome	Ticket closes	Approve or Deny
