Description Rafael Bedendo 2012-11-01 14:53:14 UTC 
A simple thing that I see missing in the logviewer is the possibility of cleaning the talk earlier or even the option to not record conversations.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Daniel Vrátil 2012-11-01 15:07:48 UTC 
There is already code in git master (that will be KTp 0.6) that adds options to clear history of all conversations in specific account and to clear history of all conversations with a specific contact.

There is no concept of "conversation" in the logger - only a loooong list of messages that we can filter by contacts and/or date. 

Possibility not to record conversations requires support in Telepathy Logger - I have submitted patches for that some time ago, but the upstream review is somehow stalled (thanks for reminding me that though, almost forgot to poke them). If we manage to get the patch to upstream soon, there will be support for not-logging conversations in 0.6. 

I'll close this as a duplicate of the original bug about clearing history. I'll create a new bug regarding not-logging conversations (I thought there was one already...weird) and CC you there.
