I'm trying to make myself just 'q' with the \~ prefix how i have it on
zsh and anon 'a' with the & prefix.

So there is



And then there is



​

Then there is





Then there is




in the inspircd config.

I don't know if it's safe to remove myself and anon from the \`\`"

And leave all of it privs like these alone

    classes="SACommands OperChat BanControl HostCloak Shutdown
ServerLink"

Then removing 'anon' and 'voaii' from "<admin name="

Then replacing "type="NetAdmin"" with "type="SuperAdmin""

The oper section is for server operators. InspIRCd has a module to
automatically grant server operators a special channel mode, which has
the ! Prefix. You'd have to unload that module.

I typically avoid that module, as server operators should (in my eyes)
mostly be treated as regular users.

It's been years since I've last managed an InspIRCd, so you'll have to
check the example config file and documentation for details

1. I don't remember, check the documentation
2. I don't remember, check the documentation
3. No that module is only responsible for the channel mode. You can
still have oper, you just won't get any special channel mode

I think the key is finding out how to set myself as global +o +a via
Anope/Services operserv or chanserv then removing that <oper block?

When i do /SAMODE #mychannel +qo mynick and then /msg chanserv aop
#mychannel ADD mynick 4 it works to give me the privileges and prefix
that I want, but it isn't persistent. WHen I disconnect and reconnect
these modes arent automatically set upon me.

User modes (+o for network oper, +a for network admin) are completely
unrelated to channel modes. Oper user modes give network-wide privs
such as the ability to kline/gline. They don't give any channel access
(although there may be network commands that can be used to "override"
into channel access, such as the /samode you mentioned).

In most networks, that's the way it should be: network opers shouldn't
interfere with channel matters and let the channel operators run their
channels as they see fit. There may be some policy reasons where
exceptions are made. In small private networks (generally those
focused on one particular topic where the network staff is synonymous
with the channel staff), these rules need not apply and it makes more
sense for them not to apply. But if you're running a public network
for other communities, it's best to not mess with their channels.

After 2 days of troubleshooting literally turning it off and back on
again did the trick. I had to restart Anope so it can recognize the
new <customprefix
