Hidden Property

This property retrieves the "Hidden" flag indicating visibility of the channel.

Syntax

Flag = ChatChannel.Hidden
ChatChannel.Hidden = Flag

Parameters

Flag

True if channel is hidden, False if not.

Remarks

Hidden channels cannot be viewed by users who are not designated members. The channel can still be viewed by invited members.

This flag will be set if the channel mode is HIDDEN (+h). The HIDDEN, SECRET, and PRIVATE channel modes are mutually exclusive. Setting one of these values causes the others to be reset. If the Channel is not private, hidden, or secret, it is public.
