# Restricted Guests Module
|
|
|
|
A pair of modules to allow guests to register with Element using the Module API.
|
|
|
|
Users get a link to an ask to join room, enter their name, and can participate in the room without any further registration.
|
|
|
|
These guest users
|
|
|
|
- have a real user account on the Homeserver.
|
|
- get a username with the (configurable) pattern @guest-<random-identifier>.
|
|
- have a display name that always includes the (configurable) suffix (Guest).
|
|
- are restricted in what they can do (can't create rooms or participate in direct messages on the homeserver).
|
|
- are only temporary and will be deactivated after a lifetime of (configurable) 24 hours.
|
|
|
|
This was initially created to allow non-organisation members to join NeoDateFix meeting rooms, even if they don't have a user account in the private and potentially non-federated homeserver.
