For group messaging, does it use emails instead of chat, or does it just create custom topics privately? Also, is there a way to create channels of groups in the forum? From what I know, it’s limited to categories, but will it work for groups? Update: I can create child categories and build chann…

the best way i’ve found is to go into start a message and add the group, you’ll probably want the discourse-whos-online plugin in your app.yml, and to append /last onto a link to the conversation, or is it latest/new ??

[image] Moin: I am not sure this setting actually exists. The post reads more like a suggestion than a documented feature. From what I know it does not actually. It was proposed to work for groups but then eventually made for categories. Correct me if I’m wrong.

[image] HAWK: assign the appropriate permissions to your custom group yea this part isn’t possible in the chat settings, and I think the bot is simply skipping the category part or getting it mixed up. Like Moin, I found the best way to accomplish a private group chat is to use a secured cat…

D’après ce que je sais, il n’existe pas réellement. Il a été proposé de travailler pour les groupes, puis finalement pour les catégories. Corrigez-moi si je me trompe.
