App: [HOLD - #11768] [$500] Unable to open chat through search when the browser/app size is decreased - reported by @adeel0202
If you haven’t already, check out our contributing guidelines for onboarding and email contributors@expensify.com to request to join our Slack channel!
Action Performed:
- Decrease the width of your browser window to the point in which the chat view is not visible, only the LHN
- Click on the magnifying glass search icon in the LHN header
- Click on any chat from the search results and observe that you’re navigated back to a view of the LHN and not the view of the chat you just clicked on
Expected Result:
When the screen width on Web/desktop has been decreased to the size of mobile/tablet, it should work in exactly the same way as those devices.
- Click on the search icon to navigate to the search page
- Click on any chat from the search results
- Navigate to the chat view
- Click the back caret
<in the top left of the chat to return to the LHN
Actual Result:
The LHN is in view and not the chat

Ha, all good!
Ok great! Thanks for those clarifiers @trjExpensify. 🙇 Now that I see we’re shooting for behavior that looks the same as the mobile layout, I don’t think we’ll need new components.
Happy to answer point one and two, Luke. I’ve updated the steps and expected results to the below for additional clarity. For the third, perhaps you can pitch in on that as the assigned CME if you think something new is warranted here.

<in the top left of the chat to return to the LHNI think this issue needs a better description of what we want to happen. How would this look? How would you get back to the LHN view from the chat? What new components would we need?
All of that should be answered before we start taking proposals.
