Deleting spaces
Moderators/admins of a space (or group) can delete the space by first “banning” all members of the room and then leaving the room themselves.
The space or group without members can still be found under “Historical” for approx. 7 days and will then be permanently deleted from the system.
1. To delete a space, enter the space. Click on the space name in the overview toolbar on the left to open the Space home (1). Click on X members (2).
2. Click on any person. Their contact information will open. You can use the admin tools to “ban” a person from the room. Repeat this process until you have “banned” all members from the group.
3. Leave the space yourself by clicking on “Leave space” under the space settings. Select “Leave all rooms” and confirm by clicking on “Leave space” again.
4. The rooms in the space will remain visible in the sidebar under Historical for 7 days and will then be automatically and permanently deleted. To directly delete the rooms from your view, open the room options (three dots next to the room name). Click on Forget room to remove the room completely from your view.
