Describe the bug

I still have the same problem, can't clearMessages even though return true

class WhatsAppClient extends Client {
    myGroupName = 'Locum Finder'
    constructor() {

        super({
            puppeteer: {
                args: ["--no-sandbox"]
            },
            authStrategy: new LocalAuth({
                clientId: 'whatsapp',
                dataPath: './'
            })
        })
        this.phoneNum = null
        this.myPhoneNum = null;
        this.groupID = null;
        this.qrImage = callbackPromise()
        this.attachListeners()
    }

    async getPhoneNumId(phoneNum) {
        phoneNum = phoneNum.replace(/[^\d]/g, "")
        let { _serialized } = await super.getNumberId(phoneNum)
        return _serialized;
    }

    async attachListeners() {

        // WhatsApp ready
        this.on(Events.READY, async () => {
            log.success('whatsapp ready');
            this.myPhoneNum = await this.getPhoneNumId(phone)
            this.otherPhoneNum = await this.getPhoneNumId(SecParty_phone_num)

            return super.getChats().then((chats) => {
                const myGroup = chats.find((chat) => chat.name === this.myGroupName);

                if (process.env.NODE_ENV == 'dev') {
                    myGroup.clearMessages().then(status => {
                        console.log(status) ----->> !! HERE! this line showed true, but nothing cleared!!
                    })
                }

                if (!myGroup) {
                    return super.createGroup(this.myGroupName, [this.myPhoneNum]).then((createGroup) => {
                        log.success(`group ${this.myGroupName} created!`)
                        this.groupID = createGroup.gid._serialized
                    })

                } else {
                    this.groupID = myGroup.id._serialized
                }

Expected behavior

Supposed to clear everychat in group

I found out it did clear chats only for owner of group, how do i clear for all participants as well?

[alequizao]

await message.delete(); // Excluir a mensagem recebida.

Inclua isso ao comando "limpartudo" que esse comando irá apagar as mensagens recebidas.

Clear is only for you. You can run on every messages in the chat and revoke them for everyone
