<title>Set a custom message</title>
<p>
Sometimes you may want to set a custom message for your status, for example to let
people know that you will be unavailable for a certain period of time.
</p>
<p>
It is possible to set a custom message based on the different statuses available.
</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>
From the <gui>Contact List</gui> window, click on the drop-down list at
the top.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
Select the status you want to add a custom message to. You have to select the one
identified with the label <gui>Custom Message</gui>.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
Enter your custom message in the text box at the top of the window, and
press <key>Enter</key> to set the message.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
If you want to set the custom message as a favorite, saving it in order to use it
again, click on the little heart on the right of the text box where you wrote your
custom message.
</p>
<p>
If you do not do it, the custom message will not be available the next time you
use <app>Empathy</app>. It will be saved only for the current session.
