Install this theme component

This theme component automatically opens a specific public chat when Discourse is loaded, aiming to stimulate more engagement.

There is one setting: the name of the public channel you want to open.

Hi, does nothing on Desktop for my site but works on mobile. Ideally I would like the opposite , that the defaut chat would be presented on my right bar menu on Desktop and not on mobile, because on mobile it takes the whole browser window space and the site is not visible.

I have made some changes:

• properly wait until chat has been initialized to avoid timing issues
• don’t load on mobile view, because on mobile it takes the whole browser window space and the site is not visible.
