mod_csi_muc_priorities

Introduction

This module lets users specify which of the group chats they are in are more or less important. This influences when mod_csi_simple decides to send stanzas vs waiting until there is more to send. Users in many large public channels might benefit from this.

Configuration

The module is configured via ad-hoc an command called Configure group chat priorities that should appear in the menus of compatible clients.

The command presents a form that accepts a list of XMPP addresses. Currently you can specify channels as lower priority (which is suitable for e.g. noisy public channels) or higher priority (which is suitable for e.g. small private channels where immediate message delivery is desired). You can also specify whether mucs default to lower priority or not.

A message of type groupchat from an address in the low priority list will not be considered important enough to send it to an inactive client, unless it is from the current user or mentions of their nickname. Note that mention support require the separate module mod_track_muc_joins to also be loaded.
