Currently, you can only configure the Community History Service using Status desktop.

You may want to turn off the [Community History Service](./about-the-community-history-service.md) to [protect community members' IP addresses](./about-the-community-history-service#how-chs-works.md) or when your computer runs out of storage space.

## What to expect
|
|
|
|
- Your community members can't receive messages that are older than 30 days.
|
|
- Your community members can no longer download the existing archives for historical messages.
