Protect your channel
(for advanced users, this is a stub)
To prevent random people from joining your room there are several possibilities:
- Only allow users that are listed in
/cs access #chan list
(most secure):
/cs set #chan restricted
Be aware that the following methods don't protect empty channels (see also/ns help set mlock ).
- Set a channel key ("password"):
type /mode #chann +k key
. You'll want this key to be different to the password you set when registering your channel. If people want to join your channel, they must type /join #chan key
(or you must have &promptChannelKey=1
in the URL of your widget). If this is not persistent for you, type /cs set #channel_name mlock +k[other modes here] key
.
- Make the channel "invite only"
