|
||||
|
||||
FluffyChat 0.41.0 brings support for using multiple accounts and has an early implementation of quickly switching accounts via input bar (useful for roleplaying :wink:), which will get better in a future release, but for now, for impatient people, it can be used by enabling a prefix with Element's (Web/Desktop) `/devtools` by editing the account state, which can also be used for sorting accounts.
|
||||
|
||||
These steps are repeated for every account into which quick switching is desired, the ones below add prefix "M" for "mikaela:feneas.org", but to switch that either using the GUI is necessarily or performing the steps as another account (e.g. for setting "C" for "Ciblia:matrix.org"). The switching happens once space is pressed after the prefix char.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open FluffyChat
|
||||
2. Long touch your account name and select "Add to bundle". Name the new bundle whatever you want as long as it's the same across your quick-switching accounts, it will be visible below the account switcher and groups accounts (e.g. between personal and work)
|
||||
3. Open Element Web
|
||||
4. In any chatbox enter `/devtools` and enter
|
||||
5. Select "Explore Account Data"
|
||||
6. Search for and select `im.fluffychat.account_bundles`
|
||||
7. Above (or below, doesn't matter) the `"bundles": \[` line, add `"prefix": "M",` where `M` is your prefix to quickly switch to this account.
|
||||
|
||||
* If this is confusing, see the example of finalized event in the bottom of this file.
|
||||
|
||||
8. Optionally, if you wish to sort your account, add a `,` to the line where your bundle is named and to the next line: `"priority": 0`
|
||||
9. Start/restart FluffyChat
|
||||
10. Type `M message` and the account automatically switches from another account to the one you just configured.
|
||||
|
||||
General notes:
|
||||
|
||||
* 0.4.1 had a bug where using automatic server discovery through well-known causes all accounts to get logged out. Use server name instead, e.g. `https://matrix-client.matrix.org` (discovered from https://matrix.org/.well-known/matrix/client)
|
||||
* This is fixed in 0.4.2.
|
||||
* Quick account switching will only work within a bundle, which by default is implied to be the MXID, so by default it's disabled
|
||||
* Note the avatar next to the input bar showing which account you are using. It can also be used for switching accounts.
|
||||
* Tapping it to change account will also change which account will send any other events like media/reaction etc.
|
||||
* Long tapping a message and editing a message send as another account will auto-set the indicator and action-sender as your roleplay character.

Big thank you to FluffyChat contributors who made this feature and Sorunome for initially explaining how to do this, so I could attempt to make a clearer note on how to do it, and later corrected me a lot on this file.
