When a Discord user creates a server, the app automatically creates a few text and voice channels. Members share messages, pictures, and videos in text channels, while voice channels are for screen sharing, video/audio chat, and streaming. Usually these are enough to start the server. Setting up new channels is easy for those who need to create separate channels for different purposes.
In addition, the process of creating a channel on Discord is relatively simple. However, before users can create channels, they must have admin privileges. Here are the steps to create a Discord channel on your PC and mobile devices.
How to create a Discord channel on desktop
You can separate Discord channels by topic for better organization. However, channels must be text or voice-based. Here’s how to create a new channel on Discord via your desktop:
Step 1: On your PC, click the Start menu and search for Discord.
Step 2: Click on the Discord app from the results.
Step 3: Once the Discord app launches, click on the relevant server in the left column where you want to add the new channel.
Step 4: If your new channel is primarily text-based, click the ‘+’ sign next to Text Channels to create a new channel. However, if your new channel is primarily voice, click the ‘+’ next to Voice Channels to create a new voice channel.
Step 5: On the create new channel dialog, you can still change your channel type from Voice to Text or vice versa. In the field below Channel Name, enter a name for your new channel.
Step 6: If you want the channel to be visible only to selected individuals, click the toggle next to Private Channels.
Step 7: Click Create Channel for your changes to take effect.
To edit a channel’s settings, such as name, permissions, and integration, right-click the gear next to the channel name, then select Edit Channel. You will also see an option to delete the channel.
