Is there a way to create custom Chat sections other than Pinned and Recent?
To be clear, I think this is tied to the Public Preview option. I enabled it, a few minutes later I got the popup and could make groups of chats. I tried disabling the option and restarted Teams, the groups went away. Re-enabled, groups are back.
The option is in the About Teams section (bottom left of Settings screen) at the bottom.
williamsousa You can't group chats like that, but you can group contacts. Click where it says Chat and switch to the contacts view then you can add people to custom contact groups.
not anymore, unfortunately in the new MS Teams. There is no "Contacts" anymore. Very regrettable.
StevenC365 I don't have a "Contacts view".
- It seems they removed it from the New Teams.
Like, "you're not miserable enough, let's remove this too."
- Yes, that helps.
But what about new chats, that are not in the groups yet?
Is there any way in Chats to separate by "group chats", "personal" or add some custom separatesHey there toshafk, I've found no such resource yet.
We are managing by creating custom chats (Too many groups already) and manually adding members as required.
However, if the organization is big enough, bloating arises.
There are too many custom chats and without proper classification/grouping it can get hard to locate what you need real fast.
- Thank you Steven, this helps to organize the groups that I have.
But it would be really nice to have a concise interface, is there a place for me to send a formal suggestion/request for enhancement?- I also miss this feature a lot and registered here just to endorse it!
