This module is a full-fledged, ajaxified private message system that allows for private messages between users on a site. It has been written to be fully configurable through UI,
extendable using Drupal 8 APIs, and completely customizable.

Features

  • Ajax messaging system - loads new messages without page reloads
  • Ajax refresh time is customizable
  • Ajax refreshed inbox. If a comment is made on a thread by another user, the inbox will update without requiring a page load. The number of seconds between refreshes is customizable.
  • Messages can be ordered ascending or descending
  • Message form can be placed above or below the messages
  • Coded to be fully customizable - almost nothing is hard-coded
  • Messages and threads are fieldable entities
  • Autocomplete tagging system for adding users to threads, similar to those seen on major Social Networking services
  • Email notifications to thread members
  • Notification block showing unread message count, with link to the private messages page.
  • Notification block updates unread thread count with AJAX/nodeJS. The number of seconds between AJAX refreshes is customizable.
  • Ajax loading of threads when a link is clicked in the inbox.
  • Inbox ties into the browser back/forward buttons, so that clicking these buttons will load a thread through AJAX rather than reloading the page
  • Maximum number of users can be set for threads
  • Link to send a private message can be attached to various entities
