Hi - I am trying to make a messaging app. Bubble defaults to scrolling to the top.

How can I have it autoscroll to the bottom? And also change size of the repeating groups based on message length?

Hey there, there are some plugins which allow you to reverse the rg so it starts from the bottom, which is a good place to start for chat interfaces 🙂

The go to RG seems like the better option as the first option scrolls to the bottom.

I am trying to use this plugin but cannot figure out how to implement it. I have the box checked and rg1 in the id attribute. There is no other documentation

You have to put the element on the page and then it works. All good now. Thanks so much for the suggestion! It’s working perfectly!
