Who knows if there is such a possibility?
I have an old ejabberd 2.
website in php
All facilities in the working domain. I want to get a list of new messages from a specific user on the site. Is it possible?

Answer 1

EMNIP, in XMPP you can only get the messages themselves. Moreover, they come to the first requester and are then stored on the client, the server forgets about them.
PS And the messages themselves can be received, for example, through libphp-jabber.
PPS If ejabberd is configured to store messages in mysql, then you can get a list of messages not yet accepted by the client directly from the database.
