Hangouts: Rooms can't be renamed for some reason #11

Open ericmigi opened 5 years ago

You mean renaming the Matrix portal rooms and bridging the change to Hangouts? Or bridging renames from Hangouts?

Ah, I understand now. individual one-on-one chats that are bridged from hangouts are locked into using whatever the name is from Hangouts? this is slightly different functionality than the whatsapp bridge (which allows one-on-one chats to be renamed matrix-side).

The functionality I was looking for here is renaming a one-on-one hangouts bridged chat inside matrix. the rename would not need to be mirrored back to hangouts. does that make sense?

Oh right, the WhatsApp bridge lets anyone change name/avatar/topic (because that's how whatsapp works) and changes are bridged, except 1:1 chats don't have a name/avatar/topic on whatsapp, but the matrix-side permissions are still there.

Yeah, making the bridge give name/avatar/topic permissions in 1:1 portals is possible.
