[RESOLVED] "Message to users" functionality

[Vincent38]

Hello

, I have a quick question. I sometimes use the "send a message to users" feature, which is very handy, especially because the window overlays other windows and can't be hidden. I love that; at least you're sure the user sees it.

The only small drawback is that this feature is only available to users whose PCs are currently turned on.

Is it possible, or is there, an option to use it without the PC being connected, with the message displayed when the user reconnects?

If not, that would be (in my opinion) a great improvement to this tool

. Regards

Hi Vincent,

currently the popup is sent synchronously, and there's no server-side message queue. So, as you pointed out, the popup won't appear on machines that are powered off.

For your information, we've already discussed with the development team integrating a server-side message queue for other types of messages, so it will likely happen eventually. However, this raises other questions, such as managing message expiration.

As it stands, you can handle this scenario with an audit/session-setup package.

Best regards,

Denis
