Hi,
The company I work for uses 2 different chat systems Google Chat and
Microsoft Communicator. To get Communicator to work I had to install the
3rd party SIPE plugin and it worked flawlessly.
After merging these protocols into Pidgin I went ahead and expanded each
of the names and added the 2nd account names to that name so now instead
of seeing 2 different John Smiths, I'm only seeing one John Smith. If I
expand John Smith, I can see both Google Chat and Microsoft Communicator.
However, I never expand the chat names.
I'd like a feature where:
- if user X has multiple accounts inside of its own group i.e. user is
expanded and you can see multiple accounts, the account at the very top of
the list will be the default way to communicate with that user if you
double click on the username. As of 2.10.7, this does not happen. In fact,
the order of those chats within a username group does not affect the
default way to communicate with someone.
- if user x has multiple accounts but is only logged into one, whichever
he/she is logged into should be the default.
If there is a way to do this, that would be awesome! If not, build it and
I'll be very happy and so will my boss :)
Thanks,
