    It's older and reuses other XEPs but both are experimental so neither is officially something anyone should expect to keep working or necessarily ever be approved

    vpzom, there is no reordering mechanism

    I want to allow users to specifying an order for bookmarks. Is that the right path to look at or should I introduce a separate "ordering" tag and sort on the client side? ✎

  5. lovetox

    Why..

  6. lovetox

    Because you order the chats in the GUI afterwards?

  7. vpzom

    yes

  8. lovetox

    And what do you do about single chats

  9. vpzom

    they show up separately from groups, ordered by activity, so that's not relevant for me

  10. lovetox

    Until your users want to pin a chat to the top and establish an order

  11. lovetox

    But yes if you want to just do MUC add a custom extension element with the ordering

  12. vpzom

    the disparity between MUCs and 1:1 chats is an ongoing issue for other reasons

  13. lovetox

    Many clients add custom data in the extension element

  14. lovetox

    Beware that you need to preserve all data you don't manage in the extension element
