 * Please restore that option!
 * I have been a pro user for over two years now, and I have buy this plugin for
   over 86 websites that I helped to build, as for time being I will remove this
   plugin from all of them today.
 * There is many alternatives for free that will do all this and more, so removing
   functions we need will not help. and not listening to your customers will backfire.
 * And yes I know there is a plugin to remove logs but that is pathetic that some
   one else who is not making money from this needs to fix a paid plugin! a problem
   the plugin creators made. WT*?

 * If properly configured you don’t need a “Clear Logs” button.
    The plugin (using
   WP Cron) will take care of it for you.
 * You have better things to do than deleting logs …
 * Just my thoughts (I’m not iThemes).

 * Hey [@nlpro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nlpro/),
 * Thank you for participating in this conversation.
 * Reasons I use this the way I use it, is for better control of what is happening
   when I’m not maintaining the website, since it’s not only one website I like 
   to make sure I have seen all the reports in the log and then delete it, so that
   next time I visit there is only the once I didn’t see.
 * Now the problem is I need the log to stay indefinitely until I have check it,
   if I set it to say 60days or 120days it’s not guarantied that I had time to visit
   all of the websites to check all logs. Now if I forget to copy the log before
   it’s auto removed well then I have nothing no idea of what happen.
 * Manually removing it is best for me, and many others who complain about this,
   read why they complain to understand.
 * This is so needed that someone actually take time to make an extra plugin for
   this.
 * Just imagine you have over 50 websites to maintain and control, and you are responsible
   for security and other maintenance. if logs just start to disappear you will 
   be fucked and a lot of people to answer to.
