Count of new messages

[mukhamadievrustem]

How can I get the count of new messages in thread?

[DxCat]

It's on the example file provided.here
https://github.com/cmgmyr/laravel-messenger/blob/master/src/Cmgmyr/Messenger/examples/views/messenger/unread-count.blade.php

Auth::user()->newMessagesCount();

[mukhamadievrustem]

newMessagesCount() returns the number of threads with new messages, but not count of new messages in threads

+1 for this feature

[cmgmyr]

This is now in master, please let me know if there are any bugs that come up. I'm going to make some adjustments as well as maybe change the API a bit. Once everything is set I'll tag and release it.

How can i get a slidedown of unread threads in navbar? Thank you!

[cmgmyr]

The implementation in your design will be up to you, but now you can use the userUnreadMessages($user_id) or userUnreadMessagesCount($user_id) methods on the Thread model
