MUC/group chat: Message double, shown from sender AND recipient

[Echolon]

Hello,

first take a look at this screenshot

It seems that if a Monal user sends a message in a group chat, the message will be shown normally but also as double from a 'test' recipient. This double is only shown for the Monal user.

Hope this description helps. The user in this case uses a prosody server (jabber.de). Happened after I invited him to a private group chat. Message is not encrypted.

I also experience this issue. Messages sent are displayed as also coming from a 'test' user. No encryption is used - OMEMO does not seem to work at all in MUC.

Yes, badly affected by this. Group chat is unusable unfortunately.

Lovely app otherwise 🌞

Hi,

do you still experience this?

[janteau]

I don't believe this particular issue still exists. Though I tried retesting this last night in 4.2.1 and can't get Monal to join a Private MUC. A notification is received but Monal never prompts to actually join the room. I have tried manually adding the group address but that wasn't working either

@janteau OMEMO in groups is a known missing thing, was your test group unencrypted?

[janteau]

@licaon-kter Yes, I never even get inside the group. Manually adding the group, messages sent are not seen inside the group (in Coversations unencrypted) and sending unencrypted messages from Conversations are not seen either.

I just retested this. I did get a Join message prompt, but I had the app up and open when I sent the invite from Conversations.

I can now receive messages from Conversations, but the messages sent from Monal do not appear in Conversations.

I think this has been fixed. Please reopen if it is still an issue.
