This snippet allows you to use your bot to create a new thread in any channel with a custom name. To set up go to the Slash Command Builder and make a createthread command with a required string variable that will be the thread name. Only members with the MANAGE_THREADS permission will be able to use this command. IF YOU NEED HELP SETTING UP, you can ping @Zeno in the Autocode Discord for support. Hope you enjoy!
