First, you'll want to open up the auto-purge feature in Mochi. This handy tool helps keep your channel clutter-free by regularly deleting messages according to a schedule. It can even remove up to 250 messages at a time.

Overview of the Auto-Purge dashboard

Step 1: Select the Channel

Select the channel where Mochi should perform auto-purging by choosing it from the dropdown menu in the "Channel" field.

Once you've chosen a channel, you can use filters to tell Mochi what to leave out during the purge. Here are the choices:

Setting exclusions for the auto-purge channel
  • Images: When you turn on this filter, Mochi will ignore images.

  • Links: When you turn on this filter, Mochi will ignore website links.

  • Invites: When you turn on this filter, Mochi will ignore Discord Invites.

  • Embeds: When you turn on this filter, Mochi will ignore embeds.

Step 3: Setting the Message Amount to be Purged

Step 4: Set the Repeat Interval

If you want Mochi to delete and purge messages from your channel at specific intervals, you just need to set how often (in hours) you'd like that to happen. Simply set the number and Mochi will take care of the rest!
