Irssi: JOINS PARTS QUITS in a new window

This post will explain how you can redirect all the joins parts and quits to another window (channel) so you can focus on the actual messages in a channel.

1. Create a new hidden window in irssi
   /window new hidden
   
   
2. Give the newly created window a name and stick it
   /window name @chancon
/window stick
   

In my case I named the window "@chancon" You can move the channel to a disered place if you like.
I have mine on id 10 so I do this:
/window move 10

3. Set the desired window levels for recieving and redirecting messages
   /set window_default_level MSGS PUBLICS NOTICES CTCPS ACTIONS KICKS TOPICS NICKS CLIENTCRAP
/foreach window /window level MSGS PUBLICS NOTICES CTCPS ACTIONS KICKS TOPICS NICKS CLIENTCRAP
   
   
4. Now set the incoming level for messages for your (at)chancon channel to JOINS, PARTS and QUITS
   /window level -ALL JOINS PARTS QUITS MODES
   
   
5. Last but not least go to your status window and remove the JOINS, PARTS and QUITS from there:
   /window level ALL -JOINS -PARTS -QUITS - MODES
   
   
6. When thats done we should save our layout and config so we have that configuration and window also on our next irssi restart /save
/layout save
   
   Thats it!
