When a community idea earns the green light, make it official. The /acceptsuggestion command updates the original suggestion embed in real time — replacing the Pending status with a clear Accepted badge and letting the community know their voice was heard.

Description

The /acceptsuggestion command marks a pending suggestion as accepted by referencing its unique numeric ID. Burger Bot updates the original suggestion embed in the suggestions channel to reflect the new Accepted status. An optional response message can be included to explain the decision, share next steps, or acknowledge the member who submitted the idea. The submitting member may also receive a notification depending on your server’s configuration.

Usage

/acceptsuggestion [suggestion_id] [response]

Parameters

suggestion_id
number
required
The numeric ID of the suggestion you want to accept. This ID is displayed on the suggestion embed when it was originally posted (e.g., 42 for suggestion #42).
response
string
An optional staff response message to include in the updated embed. Use this to explain why the suggestion was accepted, outline what the implementation might look like, or simply thank the member for their contribution.

What Changes on the Embed

After running /acceptsuggestion, the original suggestion embed is updated with:
  • Status — Changes from Pending to Accepted
  • 💬 Staff Response — Your optional response message (if provided)
  • 👤 Reviewed By — The staff member who accepted it
You can only accept suggestions that are currently in Pending status. If a suggestion has already been accepted or denied, you’ll receive an error. Re-reviewing a decision requires contacting your server administrator.

Example Usage

/acceptsuggestion 42 Great idea! We'll be adding an off-topic channel in our next channel restructure.
This updates suggestion #42’s embed to show Accepted, attributes the review to you, and displays the response message for the community to see.
Always include a response when accepting suggestions — even a short one. It shows your community that their ideas are being genuinely considered, not just rubber-stamped, and encourages more members to participate in the suggestion process.
