How to delete other people's messages as an admin

Tersedia dalam bahasa Inggris

Admin mode deletes messages other people posted, in the Discord servers and Slack workspaces where you have the rights to. It works in channels only, never in DMs.

  1. 01

    Choose Delete from Discord as admin

    Tap your account on Main. On the How should we delete? sheet, pick Delete from Discord as admin (on Slack, Delete from Slack as admin) instead of the first option.

    Di aplikasi Main → Discord → account → Delete from Discord as admin

    The How should we delete? sheet for Discord with Delete from Discord as admin highlighted.
  2. 02

    Pick the channels

    On Discord the list shows only servers you own or where you have the Administrator or Manage Messages permission: tap one and tick its channels, or Select all. On Slack it shows the workspace’s channels, and only to a workspace admin: for anyone else it stays empty. Then tap Continue.

    Di aplikasi Delete from Discord as admin → server → channels → Continue

    Choose whose messages go

    Select User to Delete opens. Turn on Delete All to delete everyone’s messages in those channels, or tick members in the list: ticking one turns Delete All off. On Discord, Add User by ID reaches someone who isn’t in the list: type their ID in Enter User ID and tap Add; the i next to it opens a web page that explains how to find a user ID. Then tap Continue.

    Di aplikasi Select User to Delete

    The Select User to Delete screen with the Delete All switch highlighted, on, above Add User by ID and the member list.

    Narrow it with a date range or keywords, then tap Delete

    The options screen has the same date range and keyword filters as a normal run, and they apply here too. On Discord, the What to delete choice on that screen doesn’t change an admin run: it always goes through every message in the channels you picked, their threads included, and it also removes your own reactions from those messages. On Slack, Delete Messages, Delete Threads and Delete Reactions do apply.

    Di aplikasi Continue → Delete

Perlu diketahui

  • Admin mode never lists DMs. In a DM, only the messages you sent can be deleted.
  • Comments other people left under your own posts have their own options on some platforms: Delete Comments On My Videos on TikTok, and Delete Comments Left On Your Posts on Facebook.
  • A message Discord doesn’t let you delete is skipped, and the run goes on.
  • Deleting is permanent: other people’s messages can’t be brought back either.
