Is it compatible with Moodle 5.0?

Sadelly Yes Nellie, I hoped the newer versions of Moodle solved the problem of massive messages, but the message collect code remains untouched. Please give a comment on my issue

Hola Esdras, me gustaría probar el plugin, pero tengo unas dudas, se aplica a todos los usuarios o puede utilizarlo para un solo usuario?
Esdras Caleb Oliveira Silva
Dr Nellie I hope you problems are fixed. The plugin now can delete group messages and personal messages

HI i upated it to delete messagens from database. I found a way. It was easy but I did not had time...
Esdras Caleb Oliveira Silva
Its not easy because the moodle function only deletes conversations. YOu could set the date to delete messages to 1 day and delete them in one day run cron to delete. And set it again to what you want.
I am working in a update to create a function that delete messagens. Maybe I put a message to delete all messagens of one users or something like that...

Hello. I really liked your plugin.
Fixes the problem of deleting messages that Moodle doesn't do.
A question:
How can I delete all messages?
Could you pass me the query?
Thanks
