Client Features:

Avatar/VCard - (Spark Only) - just a bit of info. Admin user is always able to edit his profile.

Group Chat - when i block joining and then try to open a bookmark in Spark, it shows nothing. But if i enable joining again and try to open that bookmark,  i will join the room, but there will be a few tabs more in the chat window (all the previous unsuccessful tries). Spark issue probably. SPARK-1007

Permitted Clients:

Should be a way to change the message shown for the users violating client policy. JM-1362

Group Chat Bookmarks:

http://localhost:9090/images/check.gif should be with transparent bg (png maybe)

URL Bookmark Manager:

This is Spark only feature? What other clients support this? Exodus doesnt But nice feature

Spark Version:

Should be a way to delete/disable current Spark version in Admin Console JM-1363

Room bookmarks are recognized by Exodus, but URL bookmarks are  showing as room bookmarks and doesnt work.

No, i just meant that there is no GUI for disabling that option. I have uploaded Spark 2.5.8 and checked the radio button. And now i cant remove it in Admin Console. No Delete or such button. So i have to go to openfire folder, find it and delete manually. It's an additional step. I want everything to be done via AC, like plugins installing/upgrading, etc.

You can add any custom client in the form on the Permitted Clients page. But as it was discussed recently in last blog comments, this plugin can't guarantee that policy. Only novice and obeying the rules can be restricted with that plugin. Advanced users can find a workaround.

This is already requested in my second message. JM-1362 But there won't be much development on this plugin after it's being open-sourced. It's up to community members to step in and fix it.

As about controlling clients and versions it would be hard to implement. Especially in such way, that absolutely noone could use anything else. One community user mentioned that client certificates support should be added to openfire, etc. You can't control sophisticated users. More over, you can't control versions of every client, which is not developed by Jive Software. Unless you will write your own plugin.

Virtually anything is possible. But as i understood in yesterday live chat, official development on this (and other parts of enterprise plugin) plugin won't be very active. That was the main cause to open-source them, so that community members can improve them. So, it's time to learn java Or to find a developer here or at your place.

That's the point. It's not hard to learn a new language if you are a programmer. All languages has many common things. In some thread one said that it is useful to study MOTD plugin for Openfire (it has some manual i think). There is also the sparkplug package (for making Spark plugins) http://www.igniterealtime.org/projects/spark/sparkplug-kit.jsp

Seems that disabling of editing vCard is not working with Spark 2.6.0 (SVN). It saves everything without any error.
