How to Disable Private Messaging

You can now control whether members of your Space can start private conversations with each other, or create private group chats.

A few use cases where this would be useful

  • To get members comfortable posting publicly before you enable private messaging.
  • To enforce that all group conversations happen publicly.
  • To keep your space and members organized.
  • To prevent the spread of negativity without you knowing.

How to update private messaging settings

By default, if your Space type is not set to "1:1", all members can create private and group conversations. To override these settings:

  • Open your Space settings.
  • Scroll down to Private Messaging.
  • Toggle the options you'd like to enable/disable.

Note: Admins and Moderators can always create private and group conversations.
