FAQ
What is the difference between individual forwarding and merged forwarding?
- Individual forwarding sends each selected message to the target conversation as a separate item.
- Merged forwarding combines multiple messages into one merged result before sending.
- If you want recipients to read each message in the original order, use individual forwarding.
Can I forward messages to multiple groups or contacts at the same time?
- Yes. In the target selection panel, you can select multiple contacts or groups.
- After you confirm the targets and click OK, WPS sends the selected messages individually to all selected conversations.
- After sending, open each target conversation to verify the result.
What types of messages can be forwarded?
- This feature can be used with several kinds of chat content.
- Common examples include text, images, files, emoji, and cloud document cards.
- If a message involves document permissions, recipients still need the required access to view the full content.
Why can recipients not open the forwarded cloud document content?
- First, confirm that the forwarded item is a cloud document message or card.
- Check whether the recipient has permission to view or edit that document.
- If not, adjust the document sharing settings first, then ask the recipient to reopen the document entry from the forwarded message.
