Sidebar - customize

[Patryk Padus]

There are some ideas to improve experience.
Is there way (or will be in future) to:

• re-order rooms in sidebar
• group rooms (have header like Clients" where now exist "Rooms" and "Direct Message"). Only visually is really need in that situation to manage space.
  For example order and additional headers:
  - Clients
  - Employee
  - Partners
  - Rooms
  - Direct messages
• change logo for room
• order people in group "Direct messages"

Just some more possibilities. Great if it can be set as default so new user have same experience (they can change but overall first impression after join stride will be better)

There can be some adjust in top where avatar is show: animate status text to show full content. Right now there are three dots. Can be adjust by settings.

Hi Patryk,

This short answer is, yes, we are working on many of these. 

• re-order rooms in sidebar - coming soon! 
• group rooms - this is something we've considered. Would you mind submitting a feature request for it here? I'd like to get more eyes on it. 
• change logo for room - we are actively working on this.
• order people in group "Direct messages" - you can 'star' conversations in order to bring them to the top. Re-ordering will come later. 

I like your idea around animating status text to show full content - another suggestion that would be great to submit!
