NodeBB 3.4.0
-
Note: Latest stable is v3.4.3
Hello!
We are back with another release that improves some of the features related to public chats that were added in 3.3.0.
Pinned chat messages
Starting with 3.4.0 room owners and administrators can pin chat messages. Pinned messages appear in a separate area that can be accessed from the room header. You can pin important messages so they can be easily found later.
Better notifications for public chat rooms
Public rooms were sending the same type of notification as private chats so it was hard to tell them apart. 3.4.0 improves this so the name of the room is visible in the notification for public chats.
See who is typing in chat rooms
️
A feature that was added long ago but got removed during one of our refactors is back. The changes in 3.3.0 allows implementing this much easier.
Chat message moderation
Admins and global moderators will be able to edit and delete other users chat messages.
Muted users won't be able to send chat messages.
Show alert if user's post is going to be queued
️
This educates new users about the post queue if it is enabled and also discourages manual spammers since they will know their post isn't going to show up in the forum when they submit.
Improved manage user options
We have added the ability to change a users password and email from the ACP and reorganized the manage users dropdown.
Bug fixes & Misc
As usual there are plenty of bug fixes in this release.

I recommend add
overflow-auto
tomain-nav
, when we have 15+ icons in left navigation menu and not big height window size, we can't view all icons.Example:
For now the window height
540px
and have visibility all icons in navbar:
Next we change window height and now we can't view other icons:
With
overflow-auto
we can fix this problem... -

Released 3.4.2 with the above fixes.

@DownPW I think those will be released wit 3.5.0, since all new translations go into the develop branch.

Was this a public or private chat? Does it only happen when you create the room with a non-admin user?
