🖌 Frontend

• We don't want to distinguish between guests and email-guests anymore in the UI
  • Show account icon for both moderators and users (👤, no questionmark anymore, should be the same as for former-one-to-one)
  • Show first letter when a custom name is set
  • Only show email icon for moderators when searching / adding a new participant (invite e-mail)
  • Show always (guest) badge
  • Show always on grey background
  • Show the invited email address to moderators in the participants list
  • Check "Guest (Guest)" intermediate name ? (Web - do not pass default "Guest" or "Deleted user" to AvatarWrapper)
• Resending the invite shows the ID instead of the name
• Guest name dialog
  • Show the invited email address on the "Guest name screen"
  • Should we hide the "have an account, login here?" message from that screen?
• Other places:
  • Check mentions (note their guest ID is longer than the old guests actor id and therefore potentially the regex needs adjusting)
  • Mail address should be shown in auto-complete, but not in mention-chips
  • Check autocomplete
  • Check call view
  • The mail address is shown for moderators in the callview and message sender (like it's done for federated users)
  • Mention and sender is missing from API -> Needs to be clarifies by Joas if it's possible

1. Currently for an email invite it shows "Guest (Guest)" in the participant list:
   

   Should the email be shown there? Only for moderators? (Property invitedActorId).

2. Show ? when "default Guest" name is used (?)
   Since we enforce a guest name nowadays, this will never be the case?

That's exactly what the ticket is about 😅

I don't see any of my questions addressed in this initial post 😅

Resending the invite shows the ID instead of the name:

There seems to be a race condition somewhere in the frontend, when trying to resend the invitation in the wrong moment, it's send to another participant (might be a general problem with the menu we had in the past?)

Right, I had only talked about those with Ivan and Maksim at the office. Anyway, edited the first post.
