msgid "SchildiChat Web is a feature-rich messenger for Matrix based on Element Web with some extras and tweaks. It can be installed alongside or instead of Element Web."
msgid "💡 **Note**: the latest version of SchildiChat Web is also available on the web, hosted by 3rd parties. If you trust giving your credentials to the following 3rd party Single Page Application, you can consider using it from there:"
msgid "Their defaults are defined in [`roles/custom/matrix-client-schildichat/defaults/main.yml`](../roles/custom/matrix-client-schildichat/defaults/main.yml) and they ultimately end up in the generated `/matrix/schildichat/config.json` file (on the server). This file is generated from the [`roles/custom/matrix-client-schildichat/templates/config.json.j2`](../roles/custom/matrix-client-schildichat/templates/config.json.j2) template."
msgid "**If there's an existing variable** which controls a setting you wish to change, you can simply define that variable in your configuration file (`inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml`) and [re-run the playbook](installing.md) to apply the changes."
msgid "you can either **request a variable to be created** (or you can submit such a contribution yourself). Keep in mind that it's **probably not a good idea** to create variables for each one of SchildiChat Web's various settings that rarely get used."
msgid "or, you can **extend and override the default configuration** ([`config.json.j2`](../roles/custom/matrix-client-schildichat/templates/config.json.j2)) by making use of the `matrix_client_schildichat_configuration_extension_json_` variable. You can find information about this in [`roles/custom/matrix-client-schildichat/defaults/main.yml`](../roles/custom/matrix-client-schildichat/defaults/main.yml)."
msgid "or, if extending the configuration is still not powerful enough for your needs, you can **override the configuration completely** using `matrix_client_schildichat_configuration_default` (or `matrix_client_schildichat_configuration`). You can find information about this in [`roles/custom/matrix-client-schildichat/defaults/main.yml`](../roles/custom/matrix-client-schildichat/defaults/main.yml)."
msgid "To change the look of SchildiChat Web, you can define your own themes manually by using the `matrix_client_schildichat_setting_defaults_custom_themes` setting."
msgid "Or better yet, you can automatically pull it all themes provided by the [aaronraimist/element-themes](https://github.com/aaronraimist/element-themes) project by simply flipping a flag (`matrix_client_schildichat_themes_enabled: true`)."
msgid "If you make your own theme, we encourage you to submit it to the **aaronraimist/element-themes** project, so that the whole community could easily enjoy it."
msgid "By default, this playbook installs SchildiChat Web on the `schildichat.` subdomain (`schildichat.example.com`) and requires you to [adjust your DNS records](#adjusting-dns-records)."
msgid "By tweaking the `matrix_client_schildichat_hostname` and `matrix_client_schildichat_path_prefix` variables, you can easily make the service available at a **different hostname and/or path** than the default one."
msgid "Once you've decided on the domain and path, **you may need to adjust your DNS** records to point the SchildiChat Web domain to the Matrix server."
msgid "After configuring the playbook and potentially [adjusting your DNS records](#adjusting-dns-records), run the playbook with [playbook tags](playbook-tags.md) as below:"
msgid "`just install-all` is useful for maintaining your setup quickly ([2x-5x faster](../CHANGELOG.md#2x-5x-performance-improvements-in-playbook-runtime) than `just setup-all`) when its components remain unchanged. If you adjust your `vars.yml` to remove other components, you'd need to run `just setup-all`, or these components will still remain installed. Note these shortcuts run the `ensure-matrix-users-created` tag too."
