Discord voice channel status filter Voice statuses are text too. Now they're moderated.

Anyone who can set a voice channel's status can put a link or a slur at the top of your voice list. Quark logs every change, and a rule can clear the status or set one you choose.

The short answer

How do you filter voice channel statuses on Discord?

To filter voice channel statuses on Discord, watch for status changes and clear any status that breaks your rules. Quark logs every Voice Channel Status Updated event with who set it, and an automation rule can check the new status against a word list, Quark's swear word lists or its scam link list, then clear it or set a status you choose.

Key facts

  • Quark logs voice channel status changes as Voice Channel Status Updated, with who made the change.
  • A rule can check a status against your own words, a saved list, or Quark's ready-made lists.
  • Clearing a status or setting one you choose needs Quark Pro.
  • Alerts and notices on the log work on every plan.
  • Discord does not document the voice channel status endpoint, so it may change without notice.

Voice statuses

The line under every voice channel.

A voice status is set by whoever is in the channel and seen by everyone in the server. Quark logs each change, and a rule can tidy up the ones that break your rules.

Checked against a list

Your own words, a saved list, swear words in seven languages, or Quark's scam link list. Disguised spellings can count too.

Cleared, or replaced

On Quark Pro, clear the status or set one you choose. Discord doesn't record the old one, so nothing is guessed.

Alerts on every plan

Tell your moderators, with the word that matched, without changing anything.

Voice moderation too

The same rules can mute, deafen, move or disconnect someone in voice, and unmute them after a time you choose.

Quark or AutoMod

AutoMod watches messages. Statuses need something else.

Discord's AutoMod rules check messages and member profiles. A voice channel status is neither.

Checks voice channel statusesYes, each time one changes.Not among its documented triggers.

AutoMod as Discord's auto moderation documentation described it on 15 October 2026. Most servers are best served by both: AutoMod at the door, Quark for what it can't see.

“Quark's detailed logging and ease of use provides a huge helping hand in our server moderation.”

Discord voice channel status filter FAQ

A short line of text shown under a voice channel's name in Discord, set by people in the channel who have the permission to. Because it sits in the channel list, everyone in the server sees it.

Not that Discord documents: AutoMod's rules are written for messages and member profiles. Quark's rules watch the status change itself, so they work on statuses whatever AutoMod does.

No. Discord's audit log records only the new status, not the one it replaced, so there is nothing to put back. On Quark Pro a rule can clear the status or set one you choose instead.

Your own words typed into the rule, a saved list shared by any number of rules, or one of Quark's ready-made lists: swear words in seven languages, scam links, link shorteners and Discord invites. Lists work on every plan.

A rule can leave moderators out with a condition, like someone not having a role. Quark never acts on its own changes, so clearing or replacing a status doesn't set the rule off again.

Yes. The free plan includes every log type, a channel for each category of log, ignore rules and the live web viewer, and it keeps the content of deleted messages that are up to 12 hours old. Quark Pro extends that to 4 weeks and adds 30 days of searchable log history on the web, CSV export, and the moderator behind server mutes and deafens.
