This page describes the behaviour of livechat versions >= 10.0.0. There were some changes in the way we manage access rights for Peertube administrators and moderators.
You can use a chat bot, that will help you for moderation.Check [the chat bot documentation](/peertube-plugin-livechat/documentation/user/streamers/bot) for more information.
You can access room settings and moderation tools using the [chat dropdown menu](/peertube-plugin-livechat/documentation/user/viewers) at the top of the chat.
Starting with livechat v10.0.0, Peertube instance's admins and moderators have no special rights on rooms by default.However, they have a special button available on top of the chat: "{{% livechat_label promote %}}".Clicking this button will give them owner access on the room.
You can use [ConverseJS moderation commands](https://conversejs.org/docs/html/features.html#moderating-chatrooms) to moderate the room.When you open the chat room in full screen, there will also be a menu with dedicated commands on the top right.
To enable or disable this feature, use the [chat dropdown menu](/peertube-plugin-livechat/documentation/user/viewers), open the "configure" menu.In the form, you will find a "{{% livechat_label livechat_configuration_channel_mute_anonymous_label %}}" checkbox.
When this feature is enabled, anonymous users will be assigned the "visitor" role.You can change their role to "participant" if you want to allow some of them to talk.
You can choose to enable or disable this feature for new chatrooms on the [channel configuration page](/peertube-plugin-livechat/documentation/user/streamers/channel).
