Set up lockdown channel permissions
Apply or remove the Discord permission overwrites used by a running channel's lockdown role.
Use these commands after the running channel has a Lockdown role configured in TiaraBot. You can confirm the role with /channel list_config.
Apply lockdown permissions
Run /channel lockdown_setup and select the running channel. TiaraBot replaces that channel's permission overwrites with:
| Role | Channel permissions |
|---|---|
| Lockdown role | View Channel, Read Message History, Send Messages, Use External Emojis |
| Each configured monitor role | View Channel, Read Message History, Send Messages, Use External Emojis, Manage Channels, Pin Messages |
| Everyone else | View Channel denied |
The lockdown role is the channel-level role shown by /channel list_config. Monitor roles are the server-level roles registered with /server add monitor_role.
Existing overwrites are replaced
Check the selected channel before running the command. Any member-specific or additional role overwrites on that channel are removed when the lockdown permissions are applied.
Remove lockdown permissions
Run /channel lockdown_undo and select the channel to remove all of its permission overwrites. The channel then uses its inherited server and category permissions again, including the default visibility for @everyone.
Use undo when the channel no longer needs the lockdown visibility gate. It does not remove the Lockdown role from TiaraBot's saved channel configuration.
Who can run these commands
Either of these can run lockdown setup and undo:
- a member holding a monitor role registered for the server.
- a member with Discord's Manage Server permission.
TiaraBot must be allowed to manage the selected channel. If the command fails, confirm its Discord role has Manage Channels, then retry once before contacting Theerie.
