Warning: You don't have permissions to use this

Error Message

If you receive this error when trying to use a command or button, it can be caused by one of the following reasons:

  • You have a blacklisted role, go ahead and log into the Dashboard, then head to the Server Configs and check which are the Blacklisted Roles. Remove any unwanted role and Save changes.

If @everyone role is blacklisted, no one will be able to use the buttons or commands in your server.

  • Check the permissions of the button by going to the Panel Configs, open the Button Option - Create ticket, and check which roles have been selected as Disabled Roles, a user with one of these roles will not be able to use this feature. If the Support Team role option is enabled then your staff and only your staff will be able to interact with this button, not your server users.

The bot doesn't respond to my commands

  • Run $debug in the channel you are trying to use the commands, the bot will answer with an embed, if it doesn't, check the bot has all required permissions in its role, the category and the channel.

  • Make sure you have selected the proper bot in your Server Configs, if you see something such as BOT ERROR fix it by following this process:

I can't see my server in the Dashboard

On first place let's double check you have the required permissions to access the Dashboard, you need one out of the following thing:

  • Having Administrator permission on the server

  • Being the Owner of the server

Although having the Manage Server permission allows you to invite Ticket Tool to your server, you need the Administrator permission to edit its configuration in the Dashboard.

For checking which is your level, run $level in a text channel of your server, the bot should send a response similar to this:

If the response of the bot looks something like this:

It means you can't actually edit the configurations of the bot, ask the Server Owner or the Administrators to give you the needed permissions.

For such purpose Ticket Tool counts with two commands:

Or, the slash version of both commands:

You can also add the specific ticket you want to add or remove a user/role from at the end of the prefixed command. Use the ticket option when using slash commands. This is particularly useful if you don't want to execute the commands in the same ticket channel but rather in a private channel. Example:
