[Kopete] - Keep all chat windows on the same desktop

I can't figure out where this setting is but I would like all of my kopete windows to stay on the same desktop that the kopete main window is positioned. Right now the default behavior is for it to open onto which ever desktop is being used at the time. This causes me to have chat windows spread out onto 4 different desktops when I want them all to be on one. This isn't in the faq for kopete and I can't find the setting anywhere online. Thanks in advance.

RE: [Kopete] - Keep all chat windows on the same desktop

You can specify a window rule for the chat window. Right click on a randon window title bar, choose Configure Window Behaviour and then Window Specific Settings. Make a new rule, and "Detect" the chat window (not Kopete's contact list window). In the dialog which appears after detecting, you should select the second or the third option (at least something with the window role). In the other tabs Geometry of the dialog, select Desktop 2, either forced or initially.
