It eventually disappears , it keep the last 10.000 messages No it's not publicly visible quite the contrary , Slack prioritize privacy because it's meant to be used by teams working on commercial projects which are the ones more likely to pay for a slack subscription.
If you want to search as a teams's history you need to gain access as a guest or a member , in both cases you will need an invite. So it makes little sense for Slack to give Google Acess to its teams history. If you as a team want to have unlimited messages then you will need to pay for the Slack subscription. Of course none can stop us from creating a bot that will copy the messages to an HTML website , that Google can search, hence lifting the 10k limit as well. Or even better commit those messages to a github repo that can be loaded as a project inside a Pharo image On Fri, 13 Jan 2017 at 10:05, Sven Van Caekenberghe <s...@stfx.eu> wrote: > so it is not publicly available/visible/indexable ? > > so everything written there basically disappears ? > > > > > On 13 Jan 2017, at 09:01, Dimitris Chloupis <kilon.al...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > > > > Slack encrypts the message history and it only stores 10.000 messages > > > > > > You could use the Slack search feature > > > > > > > https://get.slack.help/hc/en-us/articles/202528808-Search-for-messages-and-files > > > > > > On Fri, 13 Jan 2017 at 08:40, Sven Van Caekenberghe <s...@stfx.eu> > wrote: > > > and slack is closed, right ? > > > > > > > > > > > > > On 13 Jan 2017, at 01:36, Dimitris Chloupis <kilon.al...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Google already is capable on focusing on Pharo related websites. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > The core of our documentation is located on 3 websites > > > > > > > > > > > > > > World.st , this sites includes a forum website for all the Smalltalk > related mailing lists > > > > > > > Stackoverflow, Pharo has its own tag and a ton of answered questions > > > > > > > Github.com, here are located all the Pharo books > > > > > > > > > > > > > > So to search all documentation about Spec on only these 3 websites you > use the following search query > > > > > > > > > > > > > > pharo spec site:world.st OR site:stackoverflow.com OR site:github.com > > > > > > > > > > > > > > There are other ways to customize a google search query , please look > at google search documentation > > > > > > > On Thu, 12 Jan 2017 at 11:38, Siemen Baader <siemenbaa...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > > > > > Has anybody looked into SEO'ing any of the great documentation and > archived questions on the mailing list? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > It strikes me that I often can't find the answer to questions I have > on Google, but they are often answered in material that I can find when I > look manually for some time or am pointed at it by an experienced member of > the community. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I also miss Pharo - content on Stackoverflow, it is a very efficient > way to get past road blocks quickly. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Any thoughts or history to bring me up to speed with? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > cheers, > > > > > > > Siemen > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >
