Can you delete comments instead of just hiding them?

Yes, CommentGuard offers a "Delete mode" that permanently removes unwanted comments instead of just hiding them. To enable this feature:

1. From your Dashboard, select any of your connected pages
2. Click on the Moderation tab to access your moderation settings
3. Enable your preferred moderation filters (such as "profanity" or "negativity")
4. Scroll down and toggle on Delete comments

When you enable this option, comments that trigger your moderation filters will be automatically deleted rather than hidden.

You'll need to confirm this choice, as deletion cannot be reversed. Comments are deleted with a random delay of up to 10 seconds to appear more natural.

For maximum comment control, you can combine the "Hide all comments" setting with "Delete comments" mode to permanently remove all incoming comments.
