⇒Private messages
Description
Component performs two functions:
- allows users to exchange private messages;
- sends system notifications on various activities (for example, friendship requests) to users.
Private messages
It looks like a pop-up window to the left of which there is a list of contacts, while to the right - a conversation with a chosen contact.
Any menu should have an item with the {messages:view}
link and the ajax-modal
CSS-class to let a user open this window. The item will show a refreshable counter of new private messages, if you supplement it with the space-separated messages-counter
CSS-class.
Notifications
A user can manage notifications in one’s profile settings. Notifications are displayed in a pop-up window too. Any menu should have an item with the {messages:view}
link and the ajax-modal
CSS-class to let a user open it. The item will show a refreshable counter of new notifications, if you add the notices-counter
CSS-class.
Settings
Here you can specify the number of recent conversation messages that will be displayed at a time (older messages are available by clicking on “Show more”).
In addition, you can choose groups that will have an access to private messaging.
