Read receipt for ossn messages (add a timestamp with time that msg was read)

Rishi B Posted in Component Development 6 years ago

I was able to accomplish this without too much trouble by making 1 simple database addition and a few changes to the OssnMessages and OssnChat components. If you're interested in implementing this on your OSSN-based site, send me an email at [removed]

a couple screenshots, first one shows the read receipts in the chat window, where the checkmark only shows up if/when the message has been read/viewed by the recipient.

the second screenshot shows the full "Messages" screen/page, where the conversation is shown in the center panel. if a message has been read by the recipient, the text "READ/SENT AT: ..." will appear. if the message has not yet been read, it will display only the time at which it was sent.
