Disable autocomplete / search for public rooms #3305

Closed SPiRiT369 closed 6 months ago

SPiRiT369 commented 7 months ago

I have an unfederated server. When I try to click "Add a new groupchat" and type something, it looks like the search goes thru search.jabber.network. I assume that this api call exposes the JID who performed this search and obviously what he searched for, which is bad for privacy reasons...

Since my server is unfederated, errors are triggered in the browser side: ERROR: Communication with remote domains is not enabled

Is it possible to make this auto-complete feature optional?

I've created a new setting muc_search_service, which can be set to an empty string to disable the feature.

It will be included in the next release.
