Discord has a very good alternative for reaction roles in channels, although it is a little harder to set up. You can read more about it [here](https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/10394859532823-Community-Onboarding-Examples).

### Create a Panel

With the `/create reaction-role-message` command you can set up your reaction role panel where users can select roles.&#x20;

| Command Option Name | Function                                                              |
| ------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| channel             | Here you can select the channel where you want to send the panel too. |

After you used the command, you will get a form to fill out:

| Form question  | Function                                                                                                                   |
| -------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Button label 1 | In this question you can enter the name of your first button                                                               |
| Button label 2 | In this question you can enter the name of your second button. You can also leave this blank if you only want one button   |
| Button label 3 | In this question you can enter the name of your third button. You can also leave this blank if you only want two buttons   |
| Button label 4 | In this question you can enter the name of your fouth button. You can also leave this blank if you only want three buttons |
| Button label 5 | In this question you can enter the name of your fifth button. You can also leave this blank if you only want four buttons  |

After that form, you will get a selection menu for every button to select a button colour and role.&#x20;

The role you select here will be the role a user will get when they press the button.&#x20;

{% hint style="danger" %}
Never select a role with dangerous permissions here (administrator, manage server/channels/roles, etc) as everyone will then be able to get these roles!
{% endhint %}

Once you selected a colour and role for all buttons, you will get one last menu to enter the panel's content:
