I’m having a very basic group chat setup. This works. very basic.  
But I would like to see the messages I’ve send on right side of the app (preferably in different color), messages send by others on left side .  
Now it’s just a list…  
How can I set this up ?

In the example I’m logged in as Tom Coveliers, so the top message in this case should be on the right hand side.

Change it so Author Email is actually an email. Then it will work.
