There is a new feature in Etherpad Lite that allows the chat to always be set to the school.
A user can change it by passing a parameter or you can set it at hte server level.
To set it at the server level edit /static/custom/pad.js
Add
chat.stickToScreen(true);
To the costumStart function.
Job done 🙂 Hit f5 and admire your awesomeness.
Oh wow, you’re fast at spreading knowledge! Hehe! That’s great! 🙂

Hi John, thanks for your etherpad work!Â
What is the parameter to pass to set the sticky chat, rather than having it default at the server level?(as then the showChat=false no longer seems to have an effect, it also seems to override my custom chatbox sizing)thanks!
FTFY

?alwaysShowChat=trueÂ
Don’t forget to get latest! (git pull)
Is there any possibility to set a default greeting for every new pad in the chat panel?
