# Leave Messages

> Configure leave messages for your server

Leave messages let your community know when someone leaves the server. This page explains how to set up, customize, and manage leave messages in Greed.

## Setup

To enable leave messages in your server, run:

```bash theme={null}
,leave setup
```

This will configure leave messages in the current channel.

## Set the Leave Channel

Set the channel where leave messages will be sent:

```bash theme={null}
,leave channel #goodbye
```

## Customize the Leave Message

Set your custom leave message with optional auto-delete:

```bash theme={null}
,leave message Goodbye {user}! --auto_delete 15
```

Auto-delete is optional (1-30 seconds).

## View Current Message

You can check your current leave message configuration at any time:

```bash theme={null}
,leave view (channel)
```

This command will display your current leave message and its settings.

## Test Leave

Preview your leave message as it will appear to members:

```bash theme={null}
,leave test (channel)
```

This command will send a test leave message to the configured channel so you can see exactly how it looks.
