Closed Ticket Actions

What staff can do with a ticket after it is closed

The Closed Ticket Message

When a ticket is closed, the channel is locked to the opener and Help Buddy posts a Closed Ticket Actions message with buttons for managing it:

ActionWhat It Does

Reopen TicketReopens the ticket and restores the opener's access
Delete TicketRemoves the ticket channel and its record

Reopening

Reopening is available for a configurable window after close. Administrators can set the reopen timeout, or disable reopening entirely, from the dashboard. When the window has passed, the Reopen button no longer works and the ticket must be handled fresh.

Deleting

Deleting removes the ticket channel from Discord. On Premium and Custom, the transcript is retained for export even after the channel is gone, so a deleted ticket can still be downloaded from the dashboard.

Premium Feature

Auto-Delete can schedule closed tickets for automatic removal after a set time, with a warning staff can cancel. See Auto-Close.
