When I open the usercard on /latest, there is no chat button
But when I open it inside a topic there is a chat button though I’m still not allowed to send a chat message.

I can’t reproduce this. Now I see chat on nearly everyone in both /latest and in topics. The two exceptions I’ve found are:
- My own usercard, which makes sense because why would I want to chat with myself.
- @awesomerobot But I don’t see his chat button in either place.[1] I see there is a user preference to turn off chat. Maybe that’s what’s going on?
For testing purposes, I’ve disabled chat for myself. Does that remove the button for you when you look at my profile?
I have a Message button for everyone else that I’ve checked. Not sure what’s happening there. Kris doesn’t have either button anywhere that I can see. ↩︎
I still see both buttons for you within topics, as well as on /latest.
It does not. I can still send you a chat message.
I think you would have to use the setting at https://meta.discourse.org/my/preferences/users to disallow users sending you a message
Maybe caching? I noticed the chat icon disappeared shortly after I replied to your chat message.
High contrast light, meta branded depending on the device. But at both @awesomerobot does not have a chat button on the usercard at /latest or the mention here. But the button is visible for example when I click the profile picture here: DiscoTOC - automatic table of contents - #424 by awesomerobot
I used an incognito tab, logged in and still chat buttons on all your usercards
I think that toggle disables your chat, but doesn’t prevent you from getting new messages (Which seems like a separate issue)
Interesting, that’s certainly reproducible regardless of your theme. (I tried like 3)
I think it depends on the filter option on the usercard. But I did not check. (Same problem now as 2 days ago, it’s past midnight and sleeping is preferred to checking)
That’s indeed right, this post by robot (his only in that topic) doesn’t have the chat option:
