Nested Categories
Please add a function where you can add categories in categories so one could organize their server somewhat like so:
==Guild==
↓ Music
# chat one
# chat two
↓ Gaming
↓ Minecraft
# screenshots
# chat
↓ CS:GO
# screenshots
🔊 voice chat
I recently thought of an option for a very wide-purposed discord server, with a whole lot of channels. Since they are so hard to navigate without Nested Categories, one option would be to make a #contents channel right at the top of your server, where you can make a pretty markdown message with channel mentions so people can easily get to them. until nested categories are a thing, this is one solution (not a good one but it's better than nothing).

The disorganization of channels in very large discords makes me want to punch babies in the face. Please discords devs, think about the BBs.

We need this feature would make communities much more organised that why I suggested this as well along with others. Please consider this discord Dev team. Cheers

Ok, I'm not against this idea... but I certainly wouldn't be a fan if they let it go past 3 or 4 ranks down... I like things organized but if you let it go on infinitely, you'll end up with servers that have a sub category inside another sub category inside another sub category inside yet another and another and another... you get the picture. Without a limit, this could get REALLY out of hand. If it does become a thing, it should only be able to have up to three or MAYBE four categories inside of each other... just three would already look like "Game Chats: Undertale: Memes: Bad Time" And you would have an entire category JUST for voice and text channels featuring Undertale memes of Sans and his glowing eye. Now, I'm sorry if you don't like Undertale, it was the best game I could think of that people wouldn't instantly hate on like Fortnite or Minecraft, but you get the picture... and that's only THREE levels down, I can't imagine how you'd need it to go down any FURTHER into DEEPER sub categories. Three to four is plenty enough.

Nested categories or channels can get really messy really quickly. I'm not sure I see a practical use for this. -12 -
This would greatly help in a lot of Role Play communities where you are trying to sort out campaign, notes, out of character and multiple areas of the map that the players may be at any moment in time. As of right now being in some of those servers. they lack organization due to only being able to throw certain information all under the same tab. and it becomes heavily jumbled and lost.

This would be an incredibly helpful feature. Collapsible sub-categories are very needed.

This would make server organisation much better and much needed feature. Please for the love of God add this. Thanks

Literally only having the ability to nest one more category increases the amount of organization possible. I wouldn't recommend beyond three sub-categories though. I could see the argument up to three, but anything beyond is far too much.
In regards to the comment(s) that say it will get messy.. It already is on servers with large amounts of channels for one reason or another.

There are valid arguments to both having sub categories and disallowing them. However, management of the server itself should be left to the server admins and the software should be adaptable and robust enough to allow the individual admins to configure the server the way that makes sense to them. Nested categories would be a good feature to add type support this.

That would be so great.

Please add this!

I hear that it has been issued to some communities already so it seems that it not readily visible to everyone, great feature suggestion as many people voting for. Please dev team get this rolling and not shove it aside. Much appreciated thank you.

how is this not already a thing

I'm waiting for this like for an eternity :| And I only need to have category -> sub category -> text and void channels nothing fancy... just to keep things more organized
1 -
I really need Sub-Categories and Sub-Channels!!!
2 -
It’s been a whole year since this was suggested Discord, smh
5 -
Yeah and I'm still hoping Discord sees this and adds ~~ More people commenting and voting makes that more likely
3 -
its way too popular not to be a feature, the more people make the topic on here, the more attention it draws
3 -
This needs to be added.
ADD IT! ADD IT!
5 -
please DO

I just created a Discord server and one of the first things I wanted to do was create a set of categories with sub-categories. I can't believe this isn't possible. Such a basic requirement for ordering and categorising stuff. And even more surprising given that users have been asking for this "feature" for at least a year now, I'm guessing this would imply that they have no intention of adding it. Also, why are all channel names converted to lower-case?

Need this!!!

Still this feature is not implemented... this is a must have, I need this for my multi gaming community :|

This would improve the quality of life on my server by leaps and bounds. Nested categories, even one level deep, would honestly reduce so much clutter and tidy things so much. This is a feature I will pay for.

Hello,
Regarding the idea of sub categories it would be beneficial to all users on discord and would be beneficial due to bigger communities could have all games in one server.
2 -
this would help so many role play servers if it happen even for one sub
2 -
Yes. Please make this a thing.
We have to resort to empty categories as father categories and it just looks confusing to people.
