Hello! Is there a way to make it so messages from addresses under a specific domain go to a specific workspace? I want to make it so that contacts from JMP.chat go into my SMS/MMS workspace and all others go to my XMPP workspace ✏

Hello! Is there a way to make it so messages from addresses under a specific domain go to a specific workspace? I want to make it so that contacts from JMP.chat go into my SMS/MMS workspace and all others go to my generic XMPP workspace ✏

If such a feature doesn't exist, then could I write my own plugin to do it?

If so, where could I find the documentation for writing a plugin?

Hello! hopefully someone can help me out, I'm trying to connect through a tor browser connection, and want to know if there is a way to test if I'm indeed connected throught tor?

If the server have .onion and you use it it would not work without tor.

Or set a firewall rule.

any other way to check, also can you give me an example of a .onion server

"netstat -tulpen" show net connections

Don't know which have .onion and are aktually free to register. https://list.jabber.at/

tzenfore: currently not, but you can create a feature request, than we will take a look

4223: the server info dialog shows the proxy

lovetox: yes, but as I understand, the question is: how to control, if gajim does leak something, which goes not through tor.

4223: sounds to me as they just want to know if the Tor configuration worked, I'm not sure onion addresses work in Gaiim

they work 😎

PMR: yes but next release will land on Windows again

Nyx [ep.im], magikh: hide headerbar setting should be now on nightly, if you could test this it would be appreciated

anonnonbinary: look at console view should show connections to imho

why doesn't gajim sync my messages with conversations? it says that the messages were encrypted on another device on conversations, i am new to xmpp, and i am unsure how to sync them up, or how to use MAMs etc since I heard those were related to this topic

You can only sync new messages

Also check that Gajim fingerprint is trusted on conversations

ty i will try

thanks for the option to show/hide the header bar ;)

> Nyx [ep.im], magikh: hide headerbar setting should be now on nightly, if you could test this it would be appreciated works, thanks :D ↺

> they work 😎 they do except for http upload, depending whether you have a ssl cert (which shouldn't be needed for .onion), there's a humble patch about that here : https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/merge_requests/1085 ↺

lovetox pushed 1 commits to branch gajim/master cfix: Windows: Make translations work with Gtk.Template - https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/commit/2a643ece6f34139d8cc8252066f4c760f04c8409

cve-1312: With http upload you lost the extra anonymity of .onion, if you really need this, avoid http upload. Or set up an .onion account (server config) then the upload use the .onion adress. Just tested with ejabberd and Conversations.

Hm, what do you mean losing it? I/we were using http upload because it is the way Gajim provide sharing files easily, and it still happen through the .onion so I don't get it?

I mean, yes our server has for only address a .onion

(which is one of the interest, setting up a small private server without requiring a domain, or exposing clear ip hence where the server is)

http upload uses normal dns and contact the server on its normal adress.

Ok, I think we have the same thing in mind :) in our case there's no clearnet "normal" address

U cant tell ejabberd to provide the .onion for that, when your account is mynick@myserver.something. But you can setup mynick@"igH5.onion as account. Then it works. No idea about other servers.

Yep, that's it, only a .onion for every aspect of the server. And as you said, it works great in every aspect of Gajim, except Http upload that (from what I understood) use a different network lib, and this piece of code explicitly refusing non-https scheme, but isn't meaningful when using a .onion!

(which is what this patch fixes straightforwardly but also hardcodedly)

I remember difficulties when using http upload with gajim on my selfsigned server. With Conversations it worked.

I've started to experiment with custom layout manager for a potential media browser or maybe collapsing of many image message rows into one on demand:

https://share.conversations.im/meeson_/message/iyQJfU8a7UHxFexR/Screencast_Gallery.mp4

Next step would be to implement lazy loading.

Nice

I guess lazy loading is just load the file with the Gio.File async method when scroll position reaches a certain value

but I would also like to unload files, which are out of view by a few rows. Have to think about how to manage the layout in this case. Maybe it's easy, but right now my mind is blurry :) maybe build the whole structure with empty gtk boxes like I do right now and then attach/detach widgets to these boxes depending on the scroll position. ✏

yea, will test that in the course over the upcoming weeks

I think the list view does that

So you could look at the c code

But I guess it's mostly about how to make the scrolled window not jump uncontrollably

Thanks, will check it out

I have a problem with Gajim triggers: When I configure it to play a sound file, it does not work. I.e. neither the play button in the triggers menu nor the actual event results in any sound. Gajim 2.2.0, triggers 1.6.0, Debian 13

debacle: Works for me, but can check tomorrow shortly

> debacle: Works for me, but can check tomorrow shortly Thanks! Will try now with logging... ↺

When starting Gajim 2.2.0 this error is being logged: 2025-06-27 21:59:09 (E) gajim.c.dbus.system_style Couldn’t read the color-scheme setting: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NameHasNoOwner: Name "org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop" does not exist Missing dependency?

It's optional, some portal that lets us ask if prefer dark mode

> Thanks! Will try now with logging... The normal logging (`-v`) does not show anything, when I press the play button in the triggers menu. I guess, I need a specific log option. ↺

and you have sound when you go to the sound preference dialog in gajim and press play there?

works also for me

i suspect gajim does not play sound at all for you, and not just the triggers plugin

most likely you muted gajim in some sound settings, check system sound volume

> and you have sound when you go to the sound preference dialog in gajim and press play there? No. ↺

Funny: After I switched on "Play Sounds" in Gajim and then off again — it works! Magic! 😀

hm .. the button in the config dialog does not care about that setting

and the config switch just changes the setting in the database

so .. i dont see how this can have something to do with it, but good that it works now
