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).

I think the idea is more along the lines of having subcategories for the categories. So adding another layer for structuring.
Something like this:
- category A
- subcategory 1
- text channel
- subcategory 2
- text-channel

This would be great even if it's only 1 layer deep. It's a pretty trivial change to make, too.

That's so many requests now because of subcategory ... And it's not being considered a pity actually

I'd like to second this. Categories were a godsend when they were introduced, but we can take them farther!

Yes, channels and subchannels would be great as Kai described
22 -
Please, I would really enjoy this feature! This would be very useful for organizational purposes.

Oh hell yes! This would help me with making my server MUCH more newbie friendly, they won't need to be ULTRA OVERWHELEMED by hundreds of area chats in my roleplay, i upvote this harder than a supersonic jet smashing into earth

Translation: 4 hours ago Hey hey I run a server with over 110 channel and various categories and it is not an end in itself there are more and more ... Well my suggestion .. Is it possible...? Subcategory to create ... So that one can create category in categories and move existing ones ..... What do you say to that ... ask for an answer ... 16 -
Yes

Why is this not happening yet? It would be so easy to do I'd think. Also it would save so much space and time on Role Playing channels too. I need this for my servers. ><
Category: Housing
Channel: Apartment Building
Sub Channel: Apt 201
Sub Channel: Apt 306
Channel: Mobile Home Park
Sub Channel: John's Home
Category: Pub & Inn
Channel: Bar area
Sub channel: The Office
Sub Channel: The Kitchen
Channel: Rooms
SC: Room 1
SC: Room 2
etc. This really can't be hard to implement. I wish we could make something even on a bot that could make something like this but I get that it's an entirely different type of coding.15 -
Please I really need this
14 -
This is gonna make for a great addition in Discord, especially for huge 300+ discord servers!

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.

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.
