How to create a conversation on VKontakte. How to delete a conversation on VKontakte

Multi-chat, multi-dialogue, or just conversation is a very convenient function of the VKontakte social network. Not all users are aware of its capabilities, and many experience difficulties using multichat. Therefore, today we will tell you about how to create a conversation on VKontakte and why it is needed, as well as give other useful tips.

General information

The ability to create a conversation with several users was added to the functionality of a social network more than a year ago. On mobile applications, it also exists. Multi-chat allows you to chat with many people from your friends list at once. For example, you can create a VKontakte conversation when you need to discuss a project with colleagues, a party plan with friends, and talk about an exam with classmates.

Surely it has already become clear that multi-dialogue is a kind of online analogue of conference calling. At the very beginning of the appearance of this function, only 15 people could participate in the general correspondence. The developers considered this number to be optimal, but time has shown that the number of participants can and should be increased. Now in a conversation can be up to three dozen people. This innovation, of course, was liked by many users, and the option began to be used more actively.

If you have a goal to inform something to a large number of people at the same time (for example, send out online invitations to a party or just share an interesting post), there is nothing easier to achieve it than creating a conversation on VKontakte.

Creating a multi-dialog

It does not require a lot of time, effort or any professional skills. If you haven’t been chatting on a social network for several days and have previously created dialogs with one user, then from our instructions you will quickly understand how to create a conversation on VKontakte.

1. Open the "My Messages" section in the menu you are familiar with on the left.
2. In the upper right corner of the page you will see a large blue button "Write a message" (provided that you open the message in the form of dialogs). If it’s more convenient for you to view them as separate messages, find a link with the same inscription above the blue line and click on it.
3. You will see in front of you the simplest form of sending a letter, it contains the columns “Recipient” and “Message”. Below is the “Submit” button and the “Attach” link (use it if you want to share any attached file). Recently, the “Message” column also allows you to add text with emoticons. If you wish, you can use this function.
4. So, we turn to the question of how to create a conversation on VKontakte. First you need to fill in the “Recipient” column. You can enter the names of friends manually or use the quick search in the list by clicking on the arrow on the right. In addition, you can do e-mailing by entering the email addresses in the column. The last option allows you to chat with people who are not among your VKontakte friends.
5. Next, fill in the “Message” column, that is, write the text you want to share.
6. Click on the “Send” button, and a conversation between all the friends you have indicated will be created automatically. Please remember that such a common dialogue can reach only 30 people. If in the column "Users" you indicated a larger number, the system will send your message only to the first 30 participants.
   

Thus, the VKontakte conversation is a very useful and multifunctional opportunity. Now let’s talk about how to remove the multi-dialog, exit it and return back.

How to return to the VKontakte conversation that you left of your own free will

The life of a modern Internet user is very dynamic, but we can’t be online all the time. Chatting with friends on social networks is fun and interesting, but sometimes we leave the conversation because of certain circumstances. But, perhaps, having finished his business in real life, we want to start talking again.

How to return to the conversation "VKontakte"? To do this, just open the "My Messages" section again and go to the "View Conversations" tab. In the upper right corner you will see a menu called "Actions". When you click on it, 5 points will drop out, the last of which will be "Return to the conversation." Click on it and you will again become a member of the general correspondence with friends.

How to leave the dialogue?

But what if the conversation is no longer interesting to you? To do this, you need to know how to leave the VKontakte conversation. Correspondence may not always be pleasant, therefore such knowledge will be useful to you.

In fact, leaving a VKontakte conversation is as easy as returning to it. This is done using the same small drop-down menu in the upper right corner of the dialog. Recall: it opens when you click on the "Actions" link. If you want to leave the conversation "VKontakte", select the item of the same name. So you will cease to be a member and will no longer see messages from friends.

But there is a small nuance. We have just outlined the situation when you yourself leave the conversation. However, other participants in the dialogue have the opportunity to remove the interlocutor themselves (for example, inactive people, spammers or trolls). If you are among the deleted friends, then you will not be able to return to the conversation. If you still think this choice is a mistake, ask another member of the multi-chat to invite you again. It is also impossible to return to the VKontakte conversation if it is overcrowded, that is, when the number of interlocutors exceeds 30 people.

We invite people to chat!

The way we described how to invite friends to the VKontakte conversation is not the only one. We will teach you the second option. It will be useful if the multi-chat was not created by you, but by another user. Notice the Actions menu at the top of the dialog box. By clicking on it, you can select the desired sub-item and manage the conversation. In this case, select "Add Interlocutor" (with a plus sign).

This item will be available even if you left (or removed) from the conversation. But to add a participant, you must first return to the conversation. We have already talked about how to do this. Next you will see a list of your friends. To invite someone to multi-chat, just click on his name.

Conversation Title

You already learned about the main features of the multi-dialogue VKontakte. Let's give some more tips. If you often use this option, it will be easier for you to navigate in the correspondence according to the names of conferences. The conversation does not have to bear any name. As a rule, the creators of the conference come up with it. If there is no special word, multi-chat will be indicated by listing the names or nicknames of its participants. Any correspondent can give a new name to this correspondence.

How to call a conversation "VKontakte"? The same small menu in the corner of the window will come to the rescue. Having opened it, click on the item “Change the name of the conversation” and in the line enter the new name. Also, the identification of a particular correspondence can be performed by photograph. As in the case of the name, by default, the photo of the conversation is the profile picture of its participants, but you can always replace it by downloading the image from the computer. I must say right away that small pictures load much faster and look more organically than having large sizes.

Other menu items "Actions"

As we have already mentioned this menu more than once, we will consider its other possibilities. In fact, it is a kind of VK chat conversation control panel. So, what items are there still?

Actions for people in conversation

• “Show materials from the conversation” - you will be presented with all the files that you or another participant uploaded during the correspondence. It can be pictures, melodies, documents, screenshots, videos and much more.
• “Search by message history” - allows you to find one of the messages in the correspondence, for this you need to enter a fragment of it in the search line. In order to effectively use this opportunity, you need to remember the content of your letters well.
• “Clear message history” - allows you to erase all messages.

Actions for people who have left the conversation

It is logical that people who have left the multi-dialogue will have much less opportunities. For example, to use the function of adding an interlocutor, they will need to return to the conversation. But the system will allow you to safely view materials, search for other messages or clear the history of correspondence. If you don’t know how to delete a VKontakte conversation, here’s a tip: just click on the pop-up cross labeled “Delete dialogue”.
