Presence Management
Presence, in the terms of myJabber, refers to YOUR presence on the network, Away, Working etc.. In this section I will briefly describe how to use myJabber's Presence Management tools.
The Presence Tool is reached by the Path shown on the left. Just click on the drop down menu that defaults to on-Line at the bottom of the screen.
On-Line:
This
allows the users on your common users on your list to see you are available
for chat.
Off-Line:
This
little person lets your contacts know you are off line. It also appears
on your task bar to let you know you have not signed in.
Away:
This person
is used to tell other myJabber users that you are unavailable to chat but they
still can leave you a message and you can reply to them later when you are back
online.
Extended Away:
This
would be used for to tell other myJabber users that you will not be able to
chat or return messages for a long period of time.
Do Not Disturb:
This
would be used to show other users that either you are in a meeting or do not
want to be disturbed because it may be inconvenient to chat.
Free For Chat:
This
allows other users on your contact list to chat to you and for you to respond
to them and that you are free to chat.
Custom...: In
this section you would add a custom message to tell people why you are away.
(i.e. In a meeting)
Invisible:
This
allows you to see who is on line but for all of your contacts not to see that
you are online if you don't wish them to see you or message you
Priority:
In this section you can set the priority of how you would like your custom messages
to appear.
Custom Presence
Custom Presence: This is used for if you are going into a meeting, eating supper or anything you might want to tell people or when you will be returning to an online presence. All so in this section you can add more than one custom message and set the priority of how you would like your messages to appear (from 1 to 5 )
