So, I've tried to read up on various user and channel modes as well as other ways to do this, but can anyone tell me if there's a way to override global flags on specific channels?

The issue is I have a number of trusted people with a global +o flag, which is normally fine as they can have ops in any channel except there's this one, which is a bit more of an official channel where ops are and should be more restricted. I generally don't have my bot opped in there, but the network services have been dodgy lately and as a precaution I'm letting the bot keep ops as well, but then it auto ops also people that it shouldn't. If I could have them NOT get auto ops in that particular channel, while still leaving the global flag intact everywhere else, that would be the peak of convenience for me.

I'm already guessing it won't be possible, but any input will be appreciated nonetheless. Thanks.

.chanset #channelname -autoop

Thanks. Unfortunately that does not seem to work.

04:22:39 <mynick> .chanset #channel -autoop
04:22:39 <botnick> Successfully set modes { -autoop } on #channel.

Then deopped and reopped the bot, and it immediately gave ops to the two other users with global +o in the channel. Is there anything else I need to do to make that autoop channel flag work? I've never seen it have any effect, despite testing various scenarios.

Other than that, I can only think of maybe +protectops channel setting having an effect.

Leave +protectops and -autoop as they are and try restarting the bot. Deop the other global +o users while the bot is away from the channel so that this action goes unseen. See if it reops them when it returns.

.chattr handle +ao
.chattr handle +d #thatchannel

That should give them global operator, automatically on join. But when joining #thatchannel they will always be deopped. This should do it.

Can I just say that I was suggesting you restart the bot merely to give opportunity to deop users without the bot seeing it, not because it otherwise needed to be restarted.
