Better Messages – غرف الدردشة، الدردشة الجماعية، الرسائل الخاصة & روبوتات الدردشة الذكية

سجل التغييرات

2.15.25

• Added better_messages_thread_header_actions JavaScript filter — the conversation header buttons (calls, minimize, maximize, the More menu) are now built as a single filterable list, so custom buttons can be added at any position and the built-in ones can be reordered, removed or replaced. Until now the header had no supported extension point: a button inserted into it by hand was moved or removed again whenever the header re-rendered. Custom buttons pick up the styling of the built-in ones, and the same filter also runs for mini chat headers
• Added better_messages_fluent_community_group_chat_members and better_messages_fluent_community_course_chat_members PHP filters — exclude specific users from the automatic membership sync of FluentCommunity Space and Course group chats: user IDs removed by the filter are taken out of the chat by the sync itself and are no longer re-added by later enrollment events
• Fixed YouTube videos shared in messages staying locked inside the message bubble on iPhone and iPad — tapping one now opens the full screen player again, as it did before YouTube changed the default playback behaviour of its embeds
• Fixed link previews showing raw HTML codes such as & in titles, and dropping the thumbnail when the image address contained one
• Link previews now also find the page title when it is spread over several lines or carries attributes, and can no longer be spoofed by markup hidden inside a page’s scripts
• The minimum required WordPress version is now 6.3, matching what the Better Messages blocks have needed since they were introduced
• Added Button Icon setting at Settings → Mobile → Floating Chat Button — choose a preset icon or paste your own SVG for the floating chat button on mobile, which previously always used the built-in messages icon with no way to change it
• Fixed the “Chatting as” persona banner in the Houzez and RealHomes integrations briefly appearing to the other side of the conversation and vanishing from the persona side’s own view while messages were delivered in the WebSocket version — viewer-specific conversation details are no longer part of the shared realtime payloads
• Other minor bugfixes and improvements

2.15.20 – 2.15.24

• Added Chat Room Moderators — assign per-room moderators in the chat room editor: moderators can remove, mute and ban participants of their room, can reply while the room is closed, and see the participants list even when it is hidden from regular members
• Added Moderators can add participants per-room setting — moderators get an “Add new participants” action right in the chat interface, so room membership can be managed without contacting site administrators
• Added Presence-based chat rooms (WebSocket version) — a new chat room type where participants are only the users currently in the room: closing the page or navigating away removes them immediately, no membership is stored, and the participants list always shows who is really present
• Added per-room Group video calls and Group audio calls toggles to chat room settings — disable group calls in specific chat rooms while keeping them enabled globally
• Added Website Context setting to AI Content Moderation — describe what your website is used for and Better Messages Moderation AI will judge messages by your community norms, fixing overly aggressive moderation on dating sites and similar communities
• Added Roles that can send Bulk Messages setting — allow selected roles (for example HR or communications staff) to send bulk messages from the Administration page without full administrator access: they see and manage only their own bulk messages and cannot send on behalf of another user
• Added Roles that can access Administration setting — grant selected roles the Administration page and site-wide moderation powers without full administrator access, replacing the need for a role editor plugin to assign the moderation capability
• Added Markdown support to Bulk Messages — the bulk message editor now understands the same Markdown syntax as regular chat messages, so headings, bullet and numbered lists and links typed in the editor are delivered formatted
• Site administrators can now add participants to any regular chat room directly from the chat interface
• Fixed chat room moderators being unable to send messages in closed chat rooms
• Chat room moderators are never removed by Auto exclude users or Auto-remove inactive participants
• Fixed the Chat Rooms list showing only the first 100 rooms — rooms now load page by page as you scroll, search covers every room you have access to, and rooms you were added to are no longer missing from the list on sites with many chat rooms
• Fixed the Browser push notifications opt-in missing from the messenger user settings on sites where the email notification interval was set to 0 and Sound Notification Control was disabled, leaving users with no way to subscribe to web push
• Added better_messages_onesignal_integration PHP filter — return false to fully disable the OneSignal integration, including the script which associates WordPress user IDs with OneSignal subscriptions
• Added Open online users list by default per-room setting (WebSocket version) — when the online users sidebar is enabled, it can open automatically when users enter the chat room on desktop
• Added GTranslate integration — on GTranslate paid plans the messenger interface now follows the language of the page the visitor is on, instead of staying in the site default language on every translated sub-domain or sub-directory
• WebSocket version now stops AJAX fallback polling by default — when a visitor’s WebSocket connection cannot be established, their browser makes a single sync request per page load instead of polling the server every few seconds. The new Continuous Fallback Mode setting restores continuous fallback polling for the rare setups that need it, such as audiences behind country-level firewalls that block WebSocket traffic
• Improved settings page mobile menu layout
• Other minor bugfixes and improvements

• Added Audio Call and Video Call buttons to the members directory and group member rows for both BuddyPress (Nouveau theme) and BuddyBoss Platform
