Adds the complete TREK documentation wiki covering installation, trip planning, admin panel, MCP/AI integration, addons, and operations. Also fixes encrypt-at-rest gaps: mapbox_access_token, Synology credentials, per-user webhook/ntfy tokens, and photo passphrases are now rotated by migrate-encryption.ts and stored encrypted via settingsService.

Collab Chat
Chat with your group in real time, without leaving the trip planner.
Where to find it
Open the trip planner and select the Collab tab. If the Chat sub-feature is enabled, a Chat panel appears — on desktop as the left column, on mobile as the first tab in the tab bar.
The Collab addon must be enabled by an admin and the Chat sub-feature must be turned on. See Real-Time-Collaboration.
Sending messages
Type in the input field at the bottom and press Enter (or click the send button) to post. Hold Shift + Enter to insert a line break without sending.
Messages load in pages of 100. A Load more button appears at the top of the chat when older messages are available.
Emoji
Click the smiley-face button in the composer to open the emoji picker. The picker has three categories:
- Smileys — facial expressions and gestures
- Reactions — hearts, fire, thumbs, and similar
- Travel — planes, maps, food, cameras, and destinations
Emoji are rendered via Twemoji for consistent appearance across platforms.
Reactions
Right-click a message on desktop (or double-tap on mobile) to open the quick-reaction menu. Eight quick reactions are available: ❤️ 😂 👍 😮 😢 🔥 👏 🎉. Click any reaction to toggle it on or off. Reactions from all users aggregate beneath the message; hover a reaction badge to see who reacted.
Replies
Hover a message to reveal the action buttons. Click Reply to quote that message. A preview of the quoted text appears above your new message in the composer; click the × to cancel the reply. The quoted text is displayed inline inside your bubble when sent.
URL link previews
When a message contains a URL, TREK automatically fetches an Open Graph preview (title, description, and thumbnail image) and displays it below the message text. Only the first URL in a message generates a preview.
Message styling
Your own messages appear right-aligned with a blue bubble. Other members' messages appear left-aligned with a gray bubble. The username is shown above the first message in a group of consecutive messages from the same person; the avatar is shown beside the last message in that group. Timestamps appear below the last message in each group.
Messages that consist of only 1–3 emoji are displayed larger without a bubble.
Deleting messages
Hover your own message to reveal the delete button (trash icon). The delete button is only visible when you have the collab_edit permission. Deleting replaces the bubble with an italicised notice — showing your username, "deleted a message", and a timestamp — visible to all members.
Read-only viewers
Users without the collab_edit permission can read all messages but the composer is disabled — they cannot send, react, or delete messages. The reply button is visible to all users, but completing a reply still requires collab_edit (the send button is hidden for read-only users).
