The new Messenger
The biggest Messenger update is now on UNA.IO and we are testing. Please try and share your observations.
This update introduces a 1-2-3-column adaptive layout with
- Contexts
- Threads
- Direct Messages
- Replies
- Mentions
- Reactions lists
While we have been working on this version for over a year now, its the first time it's running on a live site, so we really need your feedback to iterate and release a stable build soon. Thank you!

There are few prolems on mobile, I am working on them.
-
This is what it looks like for mobile on my end. Jumps around
-
Thank you!
-
Works fine on safari desktop and iOS mobile. Except I find in mobile- the chats are narrow and doesn’t take up the width of the mobile device.
-
I'm on Firefox, and I can't get the new messenger to work for me on here. Also, Been trying to get in touch with you and Igor, but haven't gotten any responses.
Update: I still cannot respond to anything in the new messenger
-
@Alexey , great job!
But maybe I'm a little picky, is it possible to correct (make shading) the bottom of the cropped text when quoting in the next update?
-
And how do I get this new messenger to test with my site..?
-
In mobile app (iPhone), when I click on the conversation, it does not open (see attached).
-
Working fine on Firefox here Version 113.0.1 (64-bit)
-
Version 1.51.114 Chromium: 113.0.5672.92 (Official Build) (x86_64) as well both on Macbook Pro
-
Thanks a lot @Alexey
-
@OneEagle ...great points. Would love to have these added ....thanks @Alexey

Hi @PRiZM . It hasn't been released for use (update on the Apps Market) yet. Meanwhile you can test it here on UNA.io
-
yes wont let us scroll sometimes
-
This messenger is much better. This is what I would expect when I use a messenger on a social or dating site.
-
I want audio only conferences too. Something like twitter's spaces. Sometimes I just want to make a simple phone call without needing to look presentable on video.
-
- I can disable video and file uploading for private messages for certain membership levels now too right?
- I can change the icons? instead of them being filled in, the icons can be outlined with the color and clear in the middle.
-
Hello!
Problems in mobile devices in common browsers should be fixed. Let me know please if you find any.
-
Hello!
In new version it is possible to change icons in builder -> menu
-
Yep! @Genesis. Some people just don't feel confortable with video calls or video conferences. Also a voice call or audio-only conferencing reduces mobile data usage.
-
Where is the "compose" button, or "create new chat" button?
-
Hey @Karina The Inbox menu, it's where your messages are sent when you start them from someone's profile using the 'Message' button (@Alexey, please correct me if i am wrong). The Direct menu, it's where you can PM someone straight from the Messenger and start a new chat. The 'Create/Add a new chat' button is found in Direct > 'Create a New Talk' icon (the + icon next to the search icon at the top of the Messenger).
-
OOOOoohhh I see it now! Thanks for that clarification @OneEagle . @Alexey Is there a way to merge 'Inbox' with 'Direct' so that the + icon is always there. and maybe change the + to a Pen to make it more obvious for us non-techy users.
-
You are welcome.
-
Hello @OneEagle,
Yes, you are right. You can create talks ( to view + icon to create talks) in Direct area. It allows to create private talks. Also + icon is available in the bottom menu where you can see modules or pages. There are the all talks which are connected with modules/pages where Messenger blocks exist.
For example: if you have Talk block on groups view page, then in new Messenger's menu this talks will be available in Inbox area (there are the all your talks) and in Groups module section in the bottom. Now you can create any number of talks connected with one page in any module where you have talk's block. It means one module's page/page can have many Talks with the same groups of members. Also you can create many Direct talks with the same list of members and set Titles for the Talks.

I like the Design 😀
-
Trying to use the Search feature on messenger- and it seems to populate the chat where that word appears but not the exact dialogue. Can't find those specific messages.
-
Hello!
Thank you for the report, I will check.
-
Awesome! @Alexey. Very nice feature. Thanks a lot for the explanation.
-
Will there be an option to delete content like Replies etc after a set period of time?
-
I posted earlier I was having issues with the new Messenger on here. The is a Clip of me clicking on everything. I have also made sure that no script blockers were causing the issues.
-
I can't type in a message now. All I see is the following, no way to type in a message to send.

I cleared the cache and it's still not working I'm using Google Chrome ver 113.0.5672.127
I logged in using Firefox and was able to chat and there were no issues. It must be a chrome thing I'm guessing.
-
Firefox 113.0.2
-
You having the same problem brother?
-
yea, I posted a video of the issues I'm having.
-
I'm not able to click on anything as well. I'm using Chrome: 113.0.5672.127
I just tried accessing the new chat with Firefox and everything works fine. It must be some sort of google chrome issue.
-
I haven’t tried on desktop, but I have tried on mobile. It works on the web but not the app.
still not working on UNA app.
-
Google Chrome: 113.0.5672.127
As it is now I can't participate in messenger. I have to login using a firefox browser to chat.

My version of google chrome still can't see or use messenger correctly. Nothing works when you click on it: version 114.0.5735.91
