👤 Ask Guest to enter a name when connecting

[BornToBeRoot]

If a guest joins a conversation with a public link, ask him to enter a name.

I know you can change it here:

But i think the most won't do this... so why don't ask him when he connects.

@jenniferpiperek what do you think design-wise?
New screen like for the password, combine it with password, or just a modal afterwards?

Having only "Guests" in the conversation can be really annoying.

If a non authenticated user joins a conversation via public link (password protected or not). There should be a dialog in the center of the screen, where the user is forced to enter a name.

• It should not be pre-filled with the name "guest", so the user has to enter something
• Continue button should be enabled when the user has entered at least 3 characters
• No option to cancel/close this dialog

Something simple like this:

Edit:
With this "solution", the authentication / password page does not have to be adjusted

I like this solution 👍

But actually I would only force the user to enter a username if he wants to write something, because sometimes I don't want to write something in a public chat but only see what others have written there...
