Hello,

I just added watch module on my ZNC.
When I join or leave a channel *highlight and *status open a window : [*status] No such module highlight
and in highlight I have the join or leave information.

How to disable it please ?

Thanks !

I don't see the HL when AFK and back again.

I made a mistake in the example. The priv is for private messages/ctcps.

Enter this, it should fix the issue. setsources 1 #* that will make the module work on all channels.

I only get <*status> No such module highlight when I message the module.
