Hello everyone,  
I have been following [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duJwoB51OU0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duJwoB51OU0) to make a chatroom,  
So let me explain; I’ve been trying to figure out how the logged in user can send messages in the chatroom. Since the guy in the tutorial has bought the chat feature in the marketplace. He has the chat form function already buildt in.  
Is it possible to do it without? And if so how? As you see in the picture i’ve tried, the closest I could get is by making a form, but the form’s submit button can’t be changed from location.  
I can’t seem to create this form that is buildt in the purchased chat feature, do I need it?

Welcome to the community @S0ME0NE75 🥳

Could you explain a bit more? You can add the create message action on the send icon in the bottom right corner.

Michael has covered that : [https://youtu.be/duJwoB51OU0?t=2102](https://youtu.be/duJwoB51OU0?t=2102)

Yes of course I would like to explain further in more detail:

So in the video he is talking about the right sending button, I have activated that button whenever it’s pressed to send a message, still couldn’t find any Form Input\>message text input is not visible at all ☹ . I believe The problem is with the message box. So while his message box is already buildt in with it’s own actions, and data this might be due to that he has bought the chatting feature in the marketplace.(when you click the text box the user can type, and that’s then communicating to the send button), while in my case it’s not buildt in, this means I don’t have the feature of making the user type, and to connect to the send button. What you see in the picture is just a outlined rounded rectangle with text on in "message"Closest I come is creating a form, but the submit button can’t be changed from location. Thank you for reading and hopefully we can solve this. It means a lot to me.

oh snap, really?  
I checked right there and here, I made a picture.

But still I’ve got the issue too with the chatbox, that is not interactable with the send button.  
Not sure if this option in the picture also could be correct. Let me know : )

You need a input to be in the **U Chat With User** screen! Is there a one?
