...

  • Any custom statuses that you use (that are not the default ones) get added to the list in the modal.

    • The emoji, the message, and the clear after time, all are added as a single option.

  • You can use your recent suggestions, or use the default ones.

  • You can remove recent suggestions from the list by hovering over them and clicking the cross icon on the right.

Important

  • If a user has a recent suggestion in the list such as: “💤 Sleeping”, and he enters a new status like: “💬 Sleeping”, it would remove the old item from the Recents list, and add “💬 Sleeping” at the top of the list.

    • The same principle applies if a user uses a different clear time. Using a different clear time would not add a new suggestion to the list. The only thing that overrides an older status to a new one is a different status message.

  • The list is sorted by recency, thus, any recent ones that you have used appear at the top.

    • Except if you use the default ones. The default ones stay at the bottom.

  • Only your last 5 recent suggestions are shown.

  • The recent suggestions would be stored on the sever, thus being unified across the different platforms.

How it visually appears can be seen in the Figma prototype below.

...

  • A user can clear his status by using the /status clear command.

  • A user can set his status by using the /status [emoji_name] [status_message] command.

    • i.e. /status 😃 Feeling happy would set the user’s status to 😃 Feeling happy.

  • After you use any of the slash commands, the system message informs the user that their status was set, or cleared.

    • For /status clear a message is posted:

      • Your status was cleared.

    • For /status [emoji_name] [status_message] a message is posted:

      • Your status is set to “[emoji_name] [status_message]”, and will clear automatically at midnight. You can change your status from the status popover in the channel sidebar header.

  • The user cannot set his clear after time via the Slash command for now.

  • The clear after time is automatically set to today.
