  • Implement filtering messages through click the already subscribed topic projects

    For the previous versions, all subscribed messages will be displayed in the same view. If users subscribed to multiple message topics, it will be very inconvenient to view. In the latest version, users can click the subscribed items in the subscription list on the left to implement filtering messages. After clicking, the message view will only display the message content of subscribing the current topic. Click again to cancel filtering.
