  • In the side panel that opens, scroll to the Automatically delete old curations section.
  • Use the dropdown menu to select how many days after which curations should be deleted, based on your content refresh needs.
  • Once you’ve chosen the desired frequency, click Update feed.

Tips for Managing your curations Library

• Set Shorter Times for Fast-Paced Content: If your curation sources are news-based or rapidly changing, selecting a shorter deletion period (1–7 days) helps keep your library current.
• Use Longer Times for Evergreen Content: For content that remains useful over time, consider deleting every 14–30 days.
