	These files are not Jinja2 templates, so there's no reason that they needed to be inside `templates/zerver`. Moving them to the top level reflects their importance and also makes it feel nicer to work on editing the help center content, without it being unnecessary buried deep in the codebase.

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