# Manage inactive channels
|
||
|
|
||
|
In normal Zulip usage, channels fall in and out of use. By default, Zulip
|
||
|
automatically moves channels that haven't been used in a while to the
|
||
|
**Inactive** section at the bottom of your channels list in the left sidebar.
|
||
|
This helps prevent low-traffic channels from cluttering the left sidebar.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can configure Zulip to move (demote) inactive channels more or less
|
||
|
aggressively. This is an advanced setting; you can safely ignore it if this
|
||
|
is your first time using Zulip.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Manage inactive channels
|
||
|
|
||
|
{start_tabs}
|
||
|
|
||
|
{settings_tab|preferences}
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Under **Advanced**, configure **Demote inactive channels**.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{end_tabs}
|
||
|
|
||
|
The default is **Automatic**, which demotes inactive channels once you're
|
||
|
subscribed to a minimum total number of channels. **Always** and **Never**
|
||
|
either demote or don't demote inactive channels regardless of how many
|
||
|
channels you have.
