Once you're connected to bitlbee, WeeChat will send a PRIVMSG to the &bitlbee channel to ask BitlBee to use the /oper command to identify. This is more secure because you're password will not be echoed on the screen and will not appears in logs files. This command will send a message to the &bitlbee channel successfully even if you aren't yet on &bitlbee. &bitlbee channel is not +n.

If you want a trusted certificate, use let's encrypt! with weechat relay.
Note: Even if I use a bouncer (ZNC), this is quite useful to enable relay. Like this you have access to all IRC client (ZNC) and all weechat remote interface (WeeChat Relay). Of course, WeeChat can do both but ZNC is multi-user.

Note: I do not log IRC conversation via WeeChat (I log via ZNC). However, I use the script grep.py and this script check the value of logger.file.path. If the module is not loaded, the value is not accessible. You could load logger, then set the correct path and run /logs to build the index and then disable logger but I had an issue when I upgrade WeeChat.

If you use this script, see the input bar below, I included two items from this script to the input bar.

The vi_line_numbers bar will be only visible in the active window whenever we enter an Ex command (whenever the vi_cmd bar is visible).

/trigger set weather command "/exec -noflush -norc -noln -buffer weather curl -s http://wttr.in/${tg_argv_eol1}?lang=${aspell.dict.exec.exec.weather}"
I found something very similar on the alias wiki page of WeeChat on GitHub. I adjust it for my own use. So when you type /weather Montreal, a new buffer will be created and will show the output of curl -s http://wttr.in/Montreal. (I created a trigger instead of an alias to replace space by _ in city name)
/trigger add set_title_weather_buffer print ""
/trigger set set_title_weather_buffer conditions "${buffer.full_name} == exec.exec.weather && ${tg_message_nocolor} !~ ^\W && ${tg_message_nocolor} !~ (wttr\.in|@igor_chubin)"
/trigger set set_title_weather_buffer command "/command -buffer exec.exec.weather core /buffer set title ${tg_message_nocolor}"
I created this trigger to change the title of the buffer from Executed commands to Weather for City: Montreal, Canada.
/trigger add weather_shortcut modifier input_text_for_buffer
/trigger set weather_shortcut conditions "${buffer[tg_modifier_data].full_name} == exec.exec.weather && ${tg_string_nocolor} !~ ^/"
/trigger set weather_shortcut regex "==(.*)==/weather ${re:1}"
This trigger will allow you to enter only the city name (without /weather) in the weather buffer.

Note: the built-in status bar is of type window. I prefer a status bar of type root which means it will be outside any window. At this time, you can't change the type of a bar. So we delete the status bar and create a new one.

Note: I changed the conditions to display the nicklist only on buffer of type channels ${nicklist} and on the window number 1, which is my chat window (2 being my highlight window and 3 my conky window). In my case, I could remove ${window.numer} == 1 because the highmon and exec buffer (conky) are not of type channels so ${nicklist} is enough.

wait for "No matches for 'z'" before disabling the trigger and clicking on a command in the bar
/trigger disable znc_create_commands_list_and_regex
This bar will be exactly like a default nicklist bar. That is, right-positionned with vertical filling. But instead of nicknames, it will contains a znc command per line. If you click on a command, the input bar will be filled with the command name, then you add whatever you want or simply press enter. Futhermore, this will send help command to znc.
now the hard part to explain. We need to bind the left mouse button to a hsignal. The hsignal will receive the line number whenever you click on a line in the bar. This hsignal will get the corresponding command name for this line number. But that's not all, we need to create a trigger to fill the bar item with the znc commands and create the appropriate regex for the hsignal. This trigger need to be disabled (or deleted) after all znc commands are in the bar.

##news and #newsbin are two channels dedicated to live news. On ##news, I use a filter to hide news from site other than those I explicitly mention. On #newsbin, I do not create any filter. Then, the trigger will redirect message from #newsbin to ##news. This way I can see all the news on one buffer. Finally, we hide #newsbin buffer in the buffers bar.
/alias add ptpburl /exec -sh -hsignal ptpburl $* 2>&1 | curl -sF c=@- https://ptpb.pw/?u=1
/trigger add ptpburl hsignal ptpburl
/trigger set ptpburl command "/command -buffer ${buffer.full_name} core /input delete_line;/command -buffer ${buffer.full_name} core /input insert ${out}"
This allow you to type /ptpburl uptime for example, to send the output of the uptime command to ptpb. Your input bar content will be replaced by the url of the paste. This way you can visit the URL to see if there is sensitive information before giving the url to everyone. You may wonder why I didn't used something like: /exec -sh -pipe "/input delete_line;/input insert " $* 2>&1 | curl -sF c=@- https://ptpb.pw/?u=1. Well If we use this, the input bar will be filled with the command and not the url.
