Chat window in harmony

josef

In persona it was possible to correspond in chat in a small window or on the whole screen, after the upgrade to Harmony there is no such option, and you can only correspond in full screen.
Is there a plan to add this? Or is it your design decision?
I miss it very much
Thanks!

Harmony disabled chat modals on purpose but they will be back in 3.2.0 as a theme option. You can enable them on this forum at theme settings to test it out.

@baris I'm working on a child theme of persona theme. I have the chat modal, and I don't want it, I want it like harmony has it, I want to click on the component="account/chat" and open the full screen "/user/username/chats/chatidnumber/" url, not sure if this component checks first if a chat room is available if not creates it.

Is there a way to remove the chat modal , and have this link to the chats page in a persona child theme?

I think all you need is this piece of code in your custom theme. https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-theme-harmony/blob/main/public/harmony.js#L40-L44. Modify it so it always passes in false then you won't get modals.

hooks.on('filter:chat.openChat', function (hookData) {
	hookData.modal = false;
	return hookData;
});

@baris Thanks. I already tested it, and this is what I was looking for.
