Description Endel Soolo 2006-09-05 12:15:44 UTC
Version:           0.11.3 (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

The log of a IRC channel shows something like this

(22:02:54) < Hello, John! How are you?
(22:03:55) < Fine, but you?
(22:05:00) < What is going on here?

It does not show who said what.
Channel logs or conference call logs should be shown with names, like this:

(22:02:54) Jack: Hello, John! How are you?
(22:03:55) John: Fine, but you?
(22:05:00) George: What is going on here?

The saved xml log file does already contain talkers' names, so this only affects the log showing part of the program.

This has been a bug that has bothered me for quite a while now. I would love to see this fixed.

Id this just a property of the default theme used to view the chat logs?

Patch to display names in different colors in the history plugin viewer and no timestamps

This is an improved version of the patch I submitted earlier. It displays the
names in different colors so they can be more easily differentiated. It also
gets rid of the timestamps, although I think there should be a checkbox
somewhere to set that.

SVN commit 828632 by nienhueser:

Add talkers names in history view. Based on Aaron's patch, thanks for the patch! The fix will be in Kopete 0.60, which will be out with KDE 4.1.
