First, insert this code onto a talk page.

}}

Setup:

archiveprefix: Do not touch anything in the parameter if you want to have a numbered archive and add s/ to the end if you want archive by date order.

format: Replace N/D with Y/F if you want archives by date use or replace by %%i if you wantnumber archives (most common).

age: Replace Hours with the age of the discussion or older to be archived (in hours). For most common use, replace that with 2160 for 90 days or older to be archived. WARNING: If you entered something invalid or left that blank, posts will be archived IMMEDIETLY!

maxarchsize: Replace bytes with the number of bytes you want the archive page to be until it goes to the next page. THIS IS REQUIRED FOR PEOPLE USING FORMAT %%i. Remove this parameter if you are using format Y/F.
