Abstract

A method and device for publishing at least one message and a storage medium is provided. The method includes the following steps. A first message published by a first session account in a first session of an instant messaging client is acquired, and session accounts participating in the first session include at least three session accounts containing the first session account, and the first message is used for allowing reply information of at least one reply of at least one session account participating in the first session to the first message to be displayed in the first message. And the first message is displayed in the first session.

Claims (72)

1. A method for publishing at least one message, comprising:

acquiring a first message published by a first session account in a first session of an instant messaging client, wherein session accounts participating in the first session include at least three session accounts containing the first session account, and the first message is used for allowing reply information of at least one reply of at least one session account participating in the first session to the first message to be displayed in the first message and allowing at least one further reply to the reply information to be displayed in the first message;

generating a second message according to the reply information after the at least one session account participating in the first session replies to the first message;

displaying a first portion of the first message and a content expansion identifier in the first session, wherein a second portion of the first message is displayed in the first session upon the content expansion identifier's being triggered, wherein prior to displaying in the first session the first portion of the first message, the method further comprising:

determining whether a quantity of characters or a picture size in the first message exceeds an upper limit

upon determining the upper limit is exceeded, displaying a text prompt and

upon receipt of an operation on the text prompt, displaying the first portion; and

displaying the second message in the first session.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

displaying a quantity of reply messages replied to the first message in the first session; and

displaying a quantity of attentions to the first message in the first session, wherein the quantity of attentions includes a quantity of likes.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

detecting a reply viewing operation over the first message displayed in the first session; and

displaying reply information of at least one reply of each session account participating in the first session to the first message.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

detecting at least one reply request operation of giving the at least one reply to the first message displayed in the first session;

acquiring first reply information corresponding to the at least one reply request operation; and

including the first reply information in the reply information to the first message.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second message further includes description information of the first message.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein after displaying the second message in the first session, the method further comprises:

receiving a skipping request used for indicating skipping to the first message through the second message; and

executing skipping to a position where the first message is displayed in the first session according to the skipping request.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first portion of the first message includes an audio clip, the method further comprising:

displaying a popped-up floating box after the audio clip is clicked on;

selecting a topic option from options provided via the popped-up floating box;

generating a text topic about the audio clip according to the topic option; and

including the text topic in the first portion of the first message.

8. A device for publishing at least one message, comprising: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory, the processor being configured to:

acquire a first message published by a first session account in a first session of an instant messaging client, wherein session accounts participating in the first session include at least three session accounts containing the first session account, and the first message is used for allowing reply information of at least one reply of at least one session account participating in the first session to the first message to be displayed in the first message and allowing at least one further reply to the reply information to be displayed in the first message;

display a first portion of the first message and a content expansion identifier in the first session, wherein a second portion of the first message is displayed in the first session upon the content expansion identifier's being triggered, wherein, prior to displaying in the first session the first portion of the first message, the processor is further configured to:

determine whether a quantity of characters or a picture size in the first message exceeds an upper limit

upon determining the upper limit is exceeded, display a text prompt and

upon receipt of an operation on the text prompt, display the first portion; and

after the first message is displayed in the first session, display a second message in the first session, wherein the second message is generated by a server according to the reply information after the at least one session account participating in the first session replies to the first message.

9. The device of claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

display a quantity of reply messages replied to the first message in the first session; and

display a quantity of attentions to the first message in the first session, wherein the quantity of attentions includes a quantity of likes.

10. The device of claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

detect a reply viewing operation over the first message displayed in the first session; and display reply information of at least one reply of each session account participating in the first session to the first message; or

detect at least one reply request operation of giving the at least one reply to the first message displayed in the first session; acquire first reply information corresponding to the at least one reply request operation; and update include the first reply information in the reply information to the first message;

wherein the second message further includes description information of the first message.

11. The device of claim 10 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

receive a skipping request used for indicating skipping to the first message through the second message; and

execute skipping to a position where the first message is displayed in the first session according to the skipping request.

12. The device of claim 8 , wherein the first portion of the first message includes an audio clip, and the processor is further configured to:

display a popped-up floating box after the audio clip is clicked on;

select a topic option from options provided via the popped-up floating box;

generate a text topic about the audio clip according to the topic option; and

include the text topic in the first portion of the first message.

13. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing program codes executable by at least one processor to perform:

acquiring a first message published by a first session account in a first session of an instant messaging client, wherein session accounts participating in the first session include at least three session accounts containing the first session account, and the first message is used for allowing reply information of at least one reply of at least one session account participating in the first session to the first message to be displayed in the first message and allowing at least one further reply to the reply information to be displayed in the first message;
