Category: yahoo Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Eric Pettersen (supralight) Assigned to: Tim Ringenbach (marv_sf) Summary: Chatroom Nicks Initial Comment: Could Yahoo nickname support be added, at least for chatrooms? As it's rather disorienting when people refer to each other via the visible nicknames, but I can't see those nicks to figure out who they're talking to. If it's actually already in the client, I'm afraid I couldn't find it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2007-04-11 13:02 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 Originator: NO As we are closing this tracker, please submit any feature request that is still valid to http://developer.pidgin.im.

You could use a "Nick (yimhandle):" text layout as well. (Which might come out with something like "SomePerson (myhandle): Hi!") Optional on/off using the nicks, of course. I never found nicknames for buddies in the main YIM client, just the chat section. Which seemed a bit strange to me. I don't use the official YIM client much at all, so I'm not all that familiar with it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tim Ringenbach (marv_sf) Date: 2005-03-17 06:06 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=790708 No, you can't do that with gaim currently. How should it work? How do yous upport nicknames, and still know who's really talking? Btw, do you know if yahoo ever displays nicknames for people in the buddy list, etc, it seems to be in chat rooms only as for as i can tell. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350235&aid=1165005&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
