Description JZA 2015-03-28 19:27:05 UTC
I am trying to have less dialogs on my desktop and for IM, group chats are a saver. I have used Pidgin in the past and not so much of kopete. I want to enable group chat by default (meaning the dialogs grouped into one single dialog). 

I enable it on the settings but I still get new dialogs everytime new users msg me. I do see the tabulation on the dialog, but I cant drag and drop or right click on them to merge the dialogs. 

Reproducible: Always


Actual Results:  
Create new dialogs

Expected Results:  
Create a new tab on the latest dialog.

Would be nice to have a drag-n-drop and context menu options for the dialogs.

You can configure it in Configure --> Behaviour --> Chat. There is menu with 5 different modes for groupping chat window.

Drag-n-drop feature to move tabs between windows is not implemented.

Thank you for the bug report.

Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
