= Advanced ChanServ: Maintaining Channel Access Lists =

== Introduction ==

Following on from the ChanServ/AccessLevels article; ChanServ has shortcuts to maintaining your access lists.  These are `VOP`, `HOP`, `AOP` and `SOP` which represent voice (`+v`), half-op (`+h`), operator (`+o`) and super-op (`+a` and `+o`) respectively.

'''NOTE:''' Not all commands will be used in the examples below but they all behave identically and are thus interchangeable, simply replace the command name with the one for the mode you are interested in.


== Who Can Use What? ==

Using these shortcuts in a channel is restricted to what access level you currently have in that channel. 
For example, an `AOP` can modify the `HOP`, and `VOP` lists, only a channel's founder or a `SOP` can modify the `AOP` list and only someone with greater than `SOP` (such as the founder) can modify the `SOP` list.


=== Listing Access Levels ===

To list all the current users with auto-voice (`+v`):

{{{
    /msg ChanServ VOP <#channel> LIST
}}}


=== Adding A User ===

To add a user to the auto-hop (`+h`) access list:

{{{
    /msg ChanServ HOP <#channel> ADD <nick>
}}}

'''NOTE:'' The user must have a registered nick to be added to an access list, see NickServ/RegisteringNicknames for more information.


=== Removing A User ===

To remove a user from the auto-hop (`+h`) access list:

{{{
    /msg ChanServ HOP <#channel> DEL <nick>
}}}
