There is an extension for PM from @luceos - https://discuss.flarum.org/d/4762-flagrow-by-bu-well-integrated-advanced-private-discussions
Private messaging
Eldenroot but having seperate page for managing private chats Like this one would be great, even byobu is great though
- Edited
PranavJadhav you can easily assign a custom page for Byobu to the private discussions using the sijad/links
extension with this endpoint (modify with your forum address): https://discuss.flarum.org/?q=is%3Aprivate just type in your search bar is:private

Anyway have two similar extensions is fine... because there is a way that one of them will be a premium extension in future, am I right? ?

@Eldenroot Flagrow created their own twist on "private" discussions. What @Shahiem is trying to develop is no way similar to what flagrow/byobu provides as far as concept other than privacy. He is developing what is considered the "classic" forum approach to private messaging (PM's). This concept pars fairly with bulletin board software such as Vbulletin, XenForo, PHPbb, etc.
I use Byobu for private on-board discussions and because it has it's own crazy twist that I like over the classic way (i.e. host meetings, off-chat discussions, private fanclubs, etc).
What I will use @Shahiem's extension is to provide my community with "Private Messaging" through an inbox-styled interface.
Private Discussion = / = Private Messaging System.
Shahiem how can i test it out please give the composer code to install it
PranavJadhav It is in the git repo itself. Use composer require treefiction/privateMessage
Frink composer require treefiction/privateMessage
tried, no chance , is any special permission required? getting these
[InvalidArgumentException]

Frink no, packages not posted to packagist will not work with composer require.
PranavJadhav you can pull it in locally with the workbench method if you are eager to test the POF.
See this wonderfully crafted guide by @luceos: https://discuss.flarum.org/d/1608-extension-development-using-composer-repositories-path
jordanjay29 no, packages not posted to packagist will not work with composer require.
Strange. It said above when I looked at it that it was posted to packagist.... maybe you need to use the --dev tag?
Frink i did with manual installation, its working but currently have no functionality
PranavJadhav Yes, I believe, as @Shahiem said, it is still a major WIP
Shahiem that´s amazing but remember to add some spam control in PM and a way for admins or moderators to control those annoying spammers!!!
