Hey there NodeBB team,

The chat feature integrated into NodeBB is great. One feature which would improve usability and convenience a lot would be the ability to quickly edit your last sent message by pressing the arrow up key on your keyboard (while the cursor is focused in the text box below). The current workflow requires to leave your keyboard and do all this by mouse which is not the best UX for a chat solution / not that intuitive.

This would make correcting all these mall typos everyone does way faster

What do you think? +1 || -1 ?

Cheers

Bent

To do this, you'll have to take out the media queries that hide the chat. Take out the hidden-xs accordingly in the header.tpl.
I hope this helps!

I'm using NodeBB as an interface for an app, more like a crowdsourcing hub. The forum is okay, but sometimes the communication is more dynamic and people have to either speak on the phone, use other apps or meet in person.

For new forums or for forums with small user base, a cross-forum chat room would be very engaging.
For the UI I'm imagining something like DC++ looked like in the old days.

This idea fits in different scenarios. At least in mine it does. The chat room would be an extension of the forum.

How do you find the idea?

Thank you very much for your speed!
But for a better understanding would it not be better to re-add the "locked" button next to the move button?
