kendoChat(); How to wire default post method to use template.

[Jeff]

Hey everybody! 

There must be something simple that I am missing.

I currently have a template set up to render through renderMessage() which runs for every message on initialization. 
Loosely based on this. Thank you Martin for this one.

The issue is that when I hit the send button and it goes into the post() method, this template no longer applies and it seems to reverts back to default.

How do I wire up my template to be used by default on send button click? 

Best, 
Jeff

Registering the template as "message" seemed to do the trick 🧙‍♂️
