Question uddeIM on Joomla 4

The private message availaible in K6.1 has been developped for new rocketheme site from 2014 when they had migrated from phpbb3 to kunena : rockettheme.com/blog/team/103-introducin...orum-built-on-kunena , it's called Secured Replies. Then it was integrated later in Kunena and the UI part has been only in K6.1, on rocketheme they use mootools

For the private message in Kunena, i think there will be a new menu item in the Kunena menu and the user will see here all his own private message. The same in the user profile with a new tab and there the will see his private messages. To write a private messsage it will be the same editor than actually to post a emssage, you will be able to add attachments... If you have some ideas on this

Yes, but please, coul you suggest something? Sorry for my unexperience, how can I have this function on my forum? Must I install a Rockettheme around Kunena? How a template company can have a function that all other users cannot have?

If you have Kunena in 6.1.2 version, it's availaible in there no need something from rocketheme

The readme of uddeim said Joomla! 4.1 support : github.com/slabbi/uddeIM/blob/main/README.md

I have just updated and re-integrated the integration plugin for uddeim in developpement version of Kunena 6.1.3, if some wan to try you need to get the nighty build availaible in the bottom of the page : www.kunena.org/download . It will disappear automatically in 24 or 48 hours, in this case just tell me

OK, thanks. I installed Kunena 6.1.3 to try it out. Perhaps I have a different use case. I depend on the CB integration for contacting Forum posters (I'm not even sure where the direct message feature is). I guess I was hoping the uddeIM integration would fix this rendering error, but it's still there:

Rendering Error in layout Widget/MenuBar: Call to a member function get() on null in /usr/local/J4/components/com_kunena/src/Controller/Widget/Login/ on line 156
Layout was rendered in /usr/local/J4/components/com_kunena/template/aurelia/layouts/page/ on line 27

That's with plain Cassiopeia template on Joomla 4.3.2.

It could come from this file : /template/aurelia/layouts/widget/login/login/default.php try to comment the lines 24, 27, 30 and 33 to see if the error is still here after

I commented out those 4 lines and the error was still there.

I can remove the error by commenting out line 156 in WidgetLoginDisplay :

$private = KunenaFactory::getPrivateMessaging();

Thanks guys, the PM function is important for us. Thanks for your work!

Sorry for my silly question, if I understood correctly, uddeIM has released a version compatible for Joomla 4 and we can upgrade to kunena 6.x / Joomla 4.x keeping all PMs we have?

With that change, there will be an error on $private variable not defined

Not officially, there are changes on github and if you look on it, there is the package nammed com_uddeim_j40, i have tried this version of Uddeim on Joomla! 4.3.x with Kunena 6.x with plugin integration for uddeim udapted and i have plenty of errors coming from Uddeim

I am curious why you're getting errors from uddeIM. I have debugging turned on and I'm not even getting warning messages. I tried just now to test every feature. While I had to fix some things for my setup, everything is working now.

(I noticed creating a menu item of uddeIM Inbox doesn't work right and I had to hack that. I also replaced the new message editor with the Joomla editor setting for the user, and replaced the table layout of messages with a div layout, among other things)
