@4Christopher: thought about it, never got started on anything. Don't have very many chats, but they would be nice to keep for sure!

@4Christopher I'm not either, feel free to tackle it!

I'm thinking about adding this to https://github.com/IvanMalison/okcupyd. Is there still any interest?

Oh wow! A few years ago I would have had a lot of fun with okcupyd. I'd be happy to be able to download my old chat history if it were implemented, but I don't have time to work on it now.

Looks also very interessting to me. @IvanMalison there is definitely an insteresst :smile: I did not yet start working on this myself. I think okcupyd is the better place to add this feature. Maybe OkCupid-Message-Downloader can be switched to okcupyd as libary later.

Okay, I'll see if I can find some time to do this. You can track progress at: https://github.com/IvanMalison/okcupyd/issues/33

The OKC chat feature has been merged with normal "mails" (term to distinguish the types), and no new chats seem to be created. The OKC web UI now displays a pop-up that size-wise is between a chat and a mail window. Entries are always added to what used to be a pure mail conversation.

Since OKC mails are already downloaded by OKCMD, this feature request is now only about downloading chats from the past.
