1. Open Flood Protection main dialog.
2. After you've opened the dialog, click on the 
button and a new, smaller dialog will
open.
3. On the new dialog that just opened, you can see a box named "Add new network:" which contains an edit box to type the
network' s name and a checkbox which is named "Global
network settings ". We want to add settings
for network irc.christian-chat.net, as mentioned above, so we type that name
into the edit box.
4. Now we move down to the second box named "Add new channel:". This one also contains an edit box for
typing your channel' s name and a checkbox named "Global
channel settings". We want settings for channel #help, so we type its
name into the edit box.
5. We now click on the "Confirm" button and the settings are added.
You can see that in the main dialog' s combo box the selected option is "irc.christian-chat.net - #help". If you want to change any settings for that option, make your changes in the four first tabs and click on the "Apply" button.
Now let's say that we don' t want a specific network, but only a specific channel, #help... We follow steps 1 and 2 as written above but in step 3, instead of typing a name for our network, we check the "Global network settings" box. Now we move on and follow the rest steps as written. The difference now is that in the main dialog, option "All networks - #help" is selected. This in simple words means that you have added settings for channel #help in any network you are into.
And what if you want to add settings for all channels of a specific network,
irc.christian-chat.net for example? You follow steps 1, 2 and 3 and at step 4
instead of typing a channel' s name into the editbox, you check the "Global channel settings" box. You follow the next steps as
are. You can now see on the main dialog the option "irc.christian-chat.net - All channels" selected. That means
that the flood settings below, will apply to all channels of
network irc.christian-chat.net.
Lastly, what if you don't want any
specific channels and networks and just want global settings for everything? In
that case, you don't click on the "New"
button on the main
dialog, but you simply select "All networks - All channels" form the main
dialog' s combobox, edit those settings and finally click on the "
Apply"
button.
Remember that "All networks - All channels" option represent your global settings.
