## v2.7.0 - 2018-01-28
For more details, [see the full changelog](https://github.com/thelounge/lounge/compare/v2.6.0...v2.7.0) and [milestone](https://github.com/thelounge/lounge/milestone/27?closed=1).
The Lounge v2.7.0 is out, and it's a big one! Here is a shortlist of the most notable additions and changes, but as usual, a comprehensive list is available below.
It is now possible to join a channel directly from the UI:
<p align="center">
<img width="187" alt="A tooltip saying Join a channel shows up when hovering the + next to a network name in the channel list" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35205922-f5662fc6-ff06-11e7-8b33-2f76354eff51.png"> <img width="192" alt="A form lets the user type a channel name, an optional password, which can then be joined by clicking the submit button" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35205923-f57147e4-ff06-11e7-942b-5bce2c2d3e78.png">
<br>
<em>The <kbd>+</kbd> button next to any network opens a form to join a channel.</em>
</p>
Nicks mentioned in messages are now clickable:
<p align="center">
<img width="385" alt="A user mentions someone else's nick in a message, which is now clickable and takes the user's color" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35206011-8cbc48ec-ff07-11e7-8969-8305a0501d24.png">
</p>
Context menu actions have been improved, and new actions have been added:
<p align="center">
<img width="186" alt="Available actions in user context menu: User information, Direct messages, Kick" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35206072-f29768e0-ff07-11e7-993f-10668751053e.png"> <img width="184" alt="Available actions in channel context menu: List banned users, Leave" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35206073-f2a45424-ff07-11e7-897e-a94b64339bf9.png"> <img width="186" alt="Available actions in network context menu: List all channels, Join a channel, Disconnect" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35206074-f2af90a0-ff07-11e7-8e19-d818c2c5579c.png">
<br>
<em>Available actions on nicks in the chat window, and on channels and networks in the channel list</em>
</p>
A long-awaited feature, it is now possible to add customizable strings when auto-completing nicks at the beginning of a message:
<p align="center">
<img width="512" alt="When comma+whitespace is set in the Settings, auto-completing nicks will add a comma and a space at the beginning of the message, and a space otherwise" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35206213-12a904d0-ff09-11e7-9d32-ea68693677f7.gif">
<br>
<em>To achieve this, set <code>, </code> in your client settings.</em>
</p>
The user information available when sending the `/whois` command (or clicking the corresponding action in a user context menu) has been enhanced:
<p align="center">
<img width="620" alt="User information is now displayed as a definition list" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35206346-09e23230-ff0a-11e7-95b7-c4826aa2f82c.png">
</p>
Message styling now supports strikethrough text, monospace font, and additional colors:
<p align="center">
<img width="183" alt="'Hello world' in a message, where 'Hello' is striked through, and 'world' is monospace" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35206448-b5c51d2e-ff0a-11e7-83d6-62375bf7a302.png">
<br>
<em>Strikethrough is achieved with <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>/<kbd>⌘</kbd> + <kbd>S</kbd>. Monospace is achieved with <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>/<kbd>⌘</kbd> + <kbd>M</kbd>.</em>
</p>
The Help window gains a version checker, to inform you if a new version was released:
<p align="center">
<img width="595" alt="A version checker says: 'The Lounge v2.7.0 is now available. Read more on GitHub'. There is also a link to release notes of the current version displayed in the UI." src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35206466-db97c1b4-ff0a-11e7-9a39-4aef6c89e628.png">
</p>
By clicking on the "release notes" link that can be seen above, all the details about the current version appear directly in the client:
<p align="center">
<img width="589" alt="A Release notes page displays the changelog for the current version." src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35206467-dba2ef26-ff0a-11e7-9cd0-f1c813e024e2.png">
</p>
The link previewer now supports WebP images, as well as audio and video links:
<p align="center">
<img width="537" alt="Big Buck Bunny video on an embedded video player" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35251930-cd33ca7c-ffab-11e7-8ad2-f274c6b2a11b.png">
</p>
Another noticeable change is the new message alignment in the main chat window, in order to improve visual experience and reduce flickering when loading a page:
<p align="center">
<img width="553" alt="screen shot 2018-01-21 at 23 53 26" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35252040-7a65d6fe-ffac-11e7-91f9-bbcdc0e54d50.png">
</p>
There were other changes on the client: accessibility of the application has been improved, notices and errors are now displayed in the current channel (then sent to the corresponding network window when reloading), and many bug fixes.
The Lounge v2.7.0 finally comes with its first package API, letting packages register stylesheets in the client. It is in its very early stage at the moment and is subject to change in future releases, so use it at your own risk. There will not be an official documentation before the API stabilizes in v3, but for more information, [refer to the corresponding PR](https://github.com/thelounge/lounge/pull/1619).
The CLI has also been improved:
- When a password gets changed using the `reset` command, the new password takes effect immediately, it is not necessary to restart the server anymore.
- A new `uninstall` command has been added to remove themes and packages.
- A new `--config`/`-c` option is available to override entries of the configuration file.
⚠️ This version also comes with a few **deprecations**. All deprecated features are still supported in The Lounge v2.7.0 but be removed from The Lounge v3 (the next version). We recommend upgrading to v2.7.0 **before** upgrading to the future v3, as v2.7.0 will warn you about deprecated configurations in the server output. Those deprecations are:
- Support for Node.js v4 is being removed, making Node.js v6 the oldest version we will support.
- The `LOUNGE_HOME` environment variable is getting replaced with `THELOUNGE_HOME`. Use this in lieu of the deprecated `--home` option as well.
- In the unlikely situation that you are relying on the `.lounge_home` file (mainly useful for package maintainers), it is being renamed to `.thelounge_home`.
- The CLI command is being changed from `lounge` to `thelounge`.
- All options for the `start` command are being removed, replaced with the `--config`/`-c` option mentioned above. For example, `--public` becomes `-c public=true`, `--port 9001` becomes `-c port=9001`, etc.
- Referring to themes in the `theme` option of the configuration file is now done through their name, not their CSS file name.
And finally... **The Lounge has its own logo!** 🎉
<p align="center">
<img width="1239" alt="The Lounge logos on dark and white backgrounds" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/35253668-ae9604aa-ffb4-11e7-8328-3933b6474c42.png">
</p>
A huge thank you to **Francesca Segantini**, the artist who designed it!
We will start rolling out our new logo in all the relevant places as of The Lounge v3. In the meantime, you can find details about the logo (and stickers!) on [the corresponding issue](https://github.com/thelounge/lounge/issues/282#issuecomment-360368920).
