As we have never used MUC in production this never caught my attention. But now some of our users want to use group chats and they want to show previous history for reference when other users join. I have seen reports in the forum and have checked myself, that an option to show history (all or particular number of messages) works only until you restart a server. Then the history of the persistent room is lost. "Log conversations" option is only for the audit logs. So, my question is, was it by design or is it actually a bug, that history is not saved? I understand that it will make impact on a database, so probably myself i don't want to save the entire history. Maybe having an option to specify what amount of history to keep would be good (based on age, say number of days). Worth a ticket?
