Configuring protected roles
Exemptions
Roles and channels can be exempted from the plugin:- Role exemption - Staff roles that legitimately need to mention protected roles are exempt. Add exempt roles on the page in the dashboard.
- Channel exemption - Specific channels (e.g. staff-only channels) can be excluded from monitoring.
Warning behaviour
When a protected mention is detected:- The message is immediately deleted.
- The bot posts a brief warning in the channel (or DMs the member, depending on your configuration) explaining that the role cannot be mentioned.
- The warning is optionally logged as an infraction through the moderation plugin, adding points to the member’s record.
