List all users on Element when starting a chat

[stevelacerda]

Hi everyone.

I don't know if this is the best place to ask, but I can't find an answer anywhere else.

When I try to start a new chat on Element Web, I doesn't list all available users on the server, only the "recent chats" ones. Is it possible to change that? I don't have ma1sd or external authentication handlers.

Thank you.

There is the variable matrix_synapse_user_directory_search_all_users that you can set to true. If you federated you might also enable matrix_synapse_user_directory_prefer_local_users.

official synapse config: https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/user_directory.html

Thank you. It worked.
