Hello,

While the route and phrases for direct messages are updated as direct messages, it is still called conversation in some areas.

For example, this is what the string looks like when I search for a DM

https://xenforo.com/community/search/?q=XF+2.3&t=conversation_message&o=relevance

and the advanced search link

https://xenforo.com/community/search/?type=conversation_message
 
The type is internally conversation_message it would be a fairly big breaking change to make it direct_message.

It would solve a bunch of compatibility issues for me however :P
 
Yeah, not sure we'll action this one. As above, those URLs refer to the content types, which are still conversation and conversation_message internally. We can't really change them for backwards compatibility reasons, and the overall impact here is rather minor.
