Feature
Log retention and purge — Automatically purges old log entries to reduce database bloat and minimize stored data.
How it works
A scheduled cleanup removes events older than your retention window. This keeps performance stable on shared hosting.
How to access / enable
- WP Admin → AegisSpamGuard → Settings
- Privacy / retention section (if present)
- Set retention days and save.
Recommended setting
Recommended: 30–90 days depending on traffic.
Most tuning and audits happen in the first few weeks; keeping 1–3 months is usually enough without bloating the DB.
Why you need this
If you are investigating an incident, temporarily increase retention.
