Room per username

How to create rooms per username from database

Doesn't show sent messages

Once you register then log in. Then click on any room, and when you send any message, it should appear on the screen, but it doesn't. You can't see the messages you sent.

cant change room names

pardon me for asking this weird questions but why in the world cant i change room names.

i have studied this code for a while now, i hosted it on GCP and if i tried to change to rooms name to what i want, it doesnt wont.

i cant send messages again. But when i revert back to the previous room names, it works. how is this possible?

SECRET key Error

app.secret_key = os.environ.get('SECRET')

This is not taking the secret key, so when running the app it is giving a secret key Error.

RuntimeError
RuntimeError: The session is unavailable because no secret key was set.  Set the secret_key on the application to something unique and secret.

but when giving the secret key like this

app.secret_key = "directly_pasting_the_secret_key"

Then it is working fine.
