That's a good question. In general in Phorge/Phabricator any archived thing is editable. So I would say no, that archiving a chat still allows to write a message. But maybe it should not generate notifications.

Would sending messages be pevented on archived rooms and would all participants be removed (unless Can Edit is set to Room Participants)?

I think a dedicated policy for "Can send messages" would be better, to cover more cases. It would be strange that all participants must also be allowed to edit all settings.

I agree with @waldyrious and I just want to add that, if somebody wants to add a button (and restore multi-line), here is probably the code:

Thanks both! I'll land this, then.

Thanks @waldyrious - I agree with both you and @speck since I was affected by the first issue and since I believe that T15225 is a good thing. Tested, nice!

I was thinking we might want to better enable multi-line messages and remove the Enter = submit for both desktop and mobile (on mobile making a send button like most other chat apps).

Thank you so much for the header fix that’s been bugging me every time I use conpherence lol

It's also misleading that the text box is multiline (at least in desktop) which suggests that line breaks are expected, but pressing Enter instead sends the message.

Hi @bekay, feel free to look at D25408. It should fix your original problem. Thanks for your reporting

It's also misleading that the text box is multiline (at least in desktop) which suggests that line breaks are expected, but pressing Enter instead sends the message. I was caught off-guard by this at least once. So perhaps the text entry box should be made single-line by default (as already happens if the screen is narrow enough) and expand as needed if line breaks are added.

Hi @bekay, I think that D25408 fixes this problem

This happened some minutes ago to our friend @waldyrious and I was able to reproduce it on my local computer. I've attached my reproducing instructions.
