Mark Has anyone worked on a third party Private Messaging extension? Kinda the only feature missing that I'd like to use... I'm thinking about coding one versus waiting.
Mark Yea, I realize it's planned - but I was just curious if there was any unofficial extensions. I'm working with a current forum that's using a really old version of Vanilla that just needs to get killed badly. I'm like 90% done writing a migration script, and then I realized the current situation regarding PM's. Was a huge heart breaker in a way lol.
meetdilip It is like, someone said, in order to get to stable version fast, features like PM will be delayed. I cannot find any PM extensions ( 3rd party ) at the moment as well.
jordanjay29 meetdilip Nope. Feedback > Features is the proper tag for requesting extensions. Dev is for help with code.
Mark Whoops - well, it will turn into dev. Once I start coding, I'm sure I'll have questions. I'll likely open source it, if anyone else wants to use it. As far as how it looked to me, I thought the PM extension was slated for the first public release?
Kulga Mark I thought the PM extension was slated for the first public release? It was, I believe it was intended for beta.6 (the next beta) However, there has been a shifting of priorities so PM is back on backburner for a bit as more critical things are developed and stabilized, like going to a stable version More Info -> https://discuss.flarum.org/d/3587-community-update-august-2016 I'm waiting for a PM extension too ?
jordanjay29 Mark That sounds good. Any ideas yet on your implementation? FYI, there are a couple threads on this discussion if you want to get ideas from the community. Here and here.
Mark jordanjay29 thanks for the links. Basically, since the current forum I'm using is Vanilla, I'd likely keep the vanilla table and move it into my Flarium database. This would just have me focusing on the front end aspect. I kept the user ID's the same when I wrote my user migration script so this should simplify things a bit.
