Hi @munafio, quick update on this PR.

I’ve continued polishing the voice message feature:

• Voice recordings are sent and rendered as audio messages with the waveform player.

• Voice attachments now show as “Voice message” with a microphone icon in the conversations list instead of generic “Attachment”.

• Recording duration is now configurable via CHATIFY_MAX_VOICE_RECORDING_TIME / chatify.php, instead of being hardcoded only in JS.

• Added broader browser recording support by choosing a supported audio MIME type, including Firefox/Ubuntu-friendly formats.

• Kept voice-message file types separated in config with allowed_voice_messages.

• Refactored the contacts query — the old join+groupBy could 500 under strict SQL mode (ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY); now grouped so it's valid regardless of engine/version. Verified paginated results return 200 with no 1055s.

• Ran syntax checks on the touched PHP files and voiceMessage.js.

The demo/details are already in the PR above. Happy to adjust the UI text or behavior if you prefer a different naming/style before merge.
