Managing Conversations
As your conversation history grows, Magus gives you several tools to stay organized.
Creating folders
Folders let you group related conversations together. To create a folder:
- Click the New folder button in the sidebar (the folder icon with a plus sign, next to the Folders heading).
- Type a name for the folder and press Enter.
The folder will appear in your sidebar. Folders can be collapsed to save space, and you can nest folders inside each other by dragging one onto another.
Moving conversations into folders
To move a conversation into a folder, drag it from the sidebar onto the folder. To move it somewhere else, drag it onto a different folder. Each folder also has its own New chat entry to start a conversation directly inside it.
Favorites
Star any conversation to pin it to the favorites section at the top of the sidebar. This is useful for conversations you return to regularly.
To favorite a conversation, hover over it in the sidebar and click the star icon. Click the star again to remove it from favorites. The star in the conversation header does the same thing.
Searching conversations
Click Search at the top of the sidebar (or press Cmd/Ctrl+K) to open the search overlay. Type your query and press Enter to see results across messages, conversations, and files. The history page also has its own search box that covers conversation titles and message content.
History page
The history page gives you a full list of all your conversations. Open it via Show history at the bottom of the chat sidebar. From here you can:
- Browse all conversations, newest first, with pagination
- Search conversations and messages
- Switch to the Trash tab to see deleted conversations
Deleting conversations
To delete a conversation, hover over it in the sidebar and click the trash icon. You’ll be asked to confirm, and you can undo right afterwards.
Deleted conversations are moved to the trash and can be recovered.
Restoring from trash
To restore a deleted conversation, open Show history at the bottom of the sidebar and switch to the Trash tab. Find the conversation and click Restore. It returns to your conversation list exactly as it was.
From the Trash tab you can also permanently delete individual conversations or empty the whole trash. Conversations in the trash are permanently deleted after 30 days.
