How do I change the bot trigger?

To change the default ! trigger to a different character use the regset command to change the general.trigger value.

For example, to change it to the ~ character:

regset general.trigger ~

To change it to both ! and ~ (and others):

regset general.trigger [!~]

To use only the bots nick:

regset general.trigger ""

You can also override the trigger on a per-channel basis by use the channel name in place of general.

For example, to override the trigger specifically for #channel:

regset #channel.trigger ~

How do I whitelist a user?

Whitelisting a user exempts them from anti-flood enforcement, ban-evasion checking, being automatically muted or kicked for various offenses, and more.

To whitelist a user, use the useradd command with the is-whitelisted capability argument. To whitelist them in all channels, add the user to the global channel.

Usage: useradd <username> <hostmasks> <channels> is-whitelisted

If the user already exists, use the userset command to grant them the is-whitelisted capability.

Usage: userset <username> is-whitelisted 1
