How to join chat
Send your token (HOPE2022-ABCD...) to @corebot:hope.net to get access to the chat rooms.
For help with the bot, please see the CoreBot help.
Using the Web Client
REGISTRATION ON ELEMENT.HOPE.NET IS CURRENTLY DISABLED. If you'd like to use element.hope.net, please check back soon!
Visit https://element.hope.net/ to create an account (walkthrough). Send the bot (@corebot:hope.net) a direct message with the ticket code you were sent around the 17th. More information
Desktop and Mobile Matrix Clients
If you wish to use your own client instead of riot.hope.net, we recommend element. It supports iOS, Android, and desktop (Windows/Mac/Linux).
You will likely need to set the client to use your homeserver, like element.hope.net
, depending on where you created your account. You can see a screenshot of how to do this below.
Once you are signed in to your account, send the bot (@corebot:hope.net) a direct message with the ticket code. More information
Troubleshooting
- The desktop client isn't working
Wait a few minutes and try again. Make sure you're using the correct homeserver (see above)! If it's still not working, try the web client. - I'm missing a channel or I can't join a channel
Send the bot your token (HOPE2022-ABCD...), it will try again to invite you to rooms. - I sent my token to the bot, but it didn't respond
Make sure you're sending it in a PM. You may need to leave the room and create a new PM with the bot.
