Good Day,


Does any one have an idea on how can i make "subject" in my oxwall messaging chatting to be optional so that users can send messages to each other even if their aren't put any subject unlike now that something have to be typed into the subject box unless otherwise user would not be able to send any message.


I want subject to be optional thing not "have to" thing. Any response is highly appreciated.


Best Regards

Ally, it requires a complicated code modification. You will need to make changes in mailbox plugin. Please check the /ow_plugins/mailbox/classes/new_message_form.php file to see how it works.

Download our new Plugin Skeleton plugin to see how to use this or that function. Here is URL to the Store item: http://www.oxwall.org/store/item/695

If you are not familiar with the plugin development, it would be better for you to find a developer who can help you with it. Please visit our Oxwall Market (http://www.oxwall.org/market/specialists).

Sorry, but I can only give you the direction and you should find the solution by deeply checking into the code and it's behavior. If you want to make modifications, you should have knowledge of PHP, HTML, CSS and programming skills.
