matrix / element user management
-
Hi,
A few question please.
Just installed matrix and element.Where do I manage users in matrix/element? When I installed it I picked 'manage via app not cloudron.
Where is the dashboard / backend?Also how do I stop 'open public registrations'?
Also is there matrix / element forum?
Many thanks

@terrygogo Element is a frontend and Synapse is the backend. Element will follow whatever authentication mechanism you setup in Synapse.
On Cloudron, when you install synapse, there are 2 ways to set it up:
-
Allow users from Cloudron - With this, external registration is disabled. Just add users to Cloudron and then can login to Element.
-
Let the app manage users - With this ,external registration is enabled by default. If you want to disable it later, you have to comment out
enable_registration
in the config - https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/sample_config.yaml#L1046
