Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 

You lot are pretty impatient! :p But it's really nice to work on something that people are eager to check out :)

First post is now updated (I've removed some paragraphs that do not longer apply to make it easier to read but still leaving the most important bits).

Well, here is the explanation of the changelog items that need it:

• Implemented (as a selectable but enabled by default option) ability to send and receive read notifications on individual chats (i.e.: blue double tick).
  
  There's a new setting that says "Report when the other party has read messages". I didn't realized the full text didn't fit the screen, so I have to explain that this works BOTH WAYS; meaning that you will only be able to know when the other party has read your messages (marked with a double blue check) if you allow the other party to know when you have read their messages.
  
  I know this is controversial, but I feel like that's what is fair: if you wanna know, you have to let know. If you disagree with this, well, you can always compile the code yourself (the repository will let you know which commit to revert) or write me until I get bored and obey you, but this is not likely to happen.
  
• Better UI for multimedia messages with long captions.
  I've enabled wor wrapping just so long messages do not require
  horizontal scroll.
  
• Fixed registration again and replaced code to avoid reregistration on certain occasions (CODeRUS).
  You should experience less registration requests from now on and those of you that couldn't register should be able to do now. Thanks to CODeRUS for this :)
  
• Fixed last seen timestamp (CODeRUS).
  We hope it now works.
  
• Added infrastructure to report which participant is composing message on group chats (cepiperez).
  
  My colleague cepiperez (who I thank for his invaluable help), has added this infraestructure to the code, meaning that probably next release will use it, so we will be able to report more information on group chats, but for now this is not something you will experience while using Yappari.

I hope you all enjoy this new release. It'll be available soon also in extras-testing and once you have tested it, I plead you to vote it if you consider it's ready to reach extras, or to downvote it if you find something that makes it unusable.

Best regards!

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 

At the moment the only reason for me to update to 2.0.3 would be the timestamp issue...but since ceene said he HOPES it works I was just wondering what the people that have already updated have observed concerning this?

Does it work??

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 

I am pretty certain it works, why don't you give it a go and test it? There's nothing you can lose :)

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 

Yes it does in the chat window, no it doesn´t on the view contact window.

@ceene still got the (+) ghost contact.

Greetings.

I'll try to solve both things for next release, I still have to research the changes Scorpius did to fix that before and see why they don't seem to make effect anymore.

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 

In the view contact window refesh the last seen when you close the contact window.

I mean, if your contact was online when you close the chat window, when you saw the view contact window, will show online, and it won't change in there unless you open the chat window again.

Don't worry,i understand, with change of protocol, changes a lot of stuff and takes time to fix all of them.

By the way, i'm not complain, i'm happy to get Yappari working, just informing the things i saw.

Greetings.

Edit: Awww, the x is typing won´t work on the groups anymore :o :rolleyes:, on 0.2 works and was kinda cool, obviously shows the name of the group, like group is typing.

Re: [Announce] Yappari - New maintainership and new features!
 

emmmm... actually I have something to lose: I kinda liked the "one way" blue ticks ;) :D

But I understand and respect why you implemented it the way you did.
I will give it a try, thanks!
