Oh dear, somehow this message escaped my attention until now. Yes, I could do that for a fee. I now have some spare time in which to do that. Feel free to contact me privately to discuss.

Yes, I agree, and that would probably be along the lines of the extensions to the delete functionality discussed in this current thread in posts #24 (HLFadmin), #26 (me), #28 (HLFadmin), and #29 (me). Here are some selected relevant quotes from those posts:

Yes, and I've started a separate Git branch to work on this functionality. It will allow genuine deletion of message contents, i.e., at the database level, probably only by the author of the message, but I'm open to ideas on how this should work, and at which level(s) (conversation/group, user group, global) edit/delete permissions should function.

This will be so that in the conversation view, message numbering does not change, and also so that, less importantly, also in conversation view, a "[Message deleted]" notice can be shown. (A couple of new columns will probably be added to support message deletion too, named something like deleted_by and deletion_datetime).

Permission-based message-deletion functionality hasn't yet been added to the roadmap, which has been stalled for a while as I've temporarily been focused on other tasks. Feel free to remind me if I haven't added it after some time.

At this time, after almost 4 years use in my forum, I see that the message author and admin should be able to edit. Ability to edit to "Message deleted" is sufficient to retain numbering. Admin should have the ability to delete a conversation, although making it a soft delete might be a better way. Delete capability is lower priority than edit capability.

Essentially, a conversation is like a forum thread, just directed to named participants. As we use it.

I will support any effort to add editing capability to Conversations.

I'll have a chat with you privately to arrange this, HLFadmin. You're not the only person to have requested this feature.
