tempmute

The tempmute command temporarily mutes a user from the current server. This is intended to revoke the user's permissions to talk in the server while still being able to read messages, or otherwise restrict accordingly to the server's preferences.

A server administrator needs to configure a mute role in order to enable this command. This can be done quickly with the /create-muterole command.
